Great spot, safe and walkable, lots of dining options, YMCA close by. A very clean bedroom and bathroom. Sparkling white sheets and towels. Coffee and tea in the lobby complimentary 24/7. Staff is excellent. An old building which could use a lot of TLC but everything works great. Just for spending a night or a few while enjoying the city, a very affordable option. Thank you for your hospitality.
I had hairs in the bathroom, bed sheets were stained, carpet had dirt. For the price I paid and service I got is terrible. I would never stay here again.
Nothing unique, the stay was good for the purpose of the visit

Rooms are old . Bed was very comfortable. Room was clean. Parking not so good. If ur lucky u get a parking spot on the street. DC is not big vehicle friendly. Had rough time finding a place to park my full size SUV.
The property is good for budget travelers, staff was friendly, great location, easy to reach and cozy

Check in was fast and easy the taxi call button is a nice addition, the receptionist was nice and gave good directions to room.
The building is in relatively good condition, some of the doors are a little worn or warped and the walls in the bathroom in my room were bubbling but besides that the room was good.
Had an easy, affordable stay. Very convenient location to walk to many restaurants in the area plus I love the architecture of the surrounding neighborhood. There is not an elevator so make note of that when booking/packing. Only qualm was that the ice machine broke.

Hotel is very old, room was large enough.
Room was very hot, heated by an old radiator, we ran the window A/c to make it comfortable.
Even though the hotel is old the room and lobby were clean.
Bathroom was clean and no issues.
Hotel located in nice area of town, felt safe walking around area.
We stayed on a weekend and parking was fine, during the week parking would be limited.

The bed had a very hard mattress. That is the only negative thing about this hotel.

I will not be returning to this hotel/inn. I felt like an inconvenience to them for asking questions about my stay. They did not ask me anything about my stay or needing anything. The hotel cleaning staff rummaged through my personal belongings. Overall, a poor experience that I could have spent the $$ on somewhere else. You all are in the hotel industry...act like it.
I enjoyed the vintage feel of the hotel, and the staff was very friendly. Great neighborhood too. Downsides are that it's not too close to the metro and there's not many options for parking long-term nearby.

No frills kind of hotel on the older side, but quaint and quiet. Not my first stay here, and the staff is fairly nice. Rooms are dated but clean, and my only bone to pick was the low water pressure with faucets and toilet.
Cold the first night it took hours to get the room kinda warm. I had to leave the heater (window insert) cranked to max, so room would be sorta warm when I returned at days end.
Shower--YIKES. Mildew with fur on it!!!!
Better than a tent, sorta
