A great value business hotel right in the heart of Washington, D.C. I stayed here without meals while attending work at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center. The location was extremely convenient, the room was very comfortable, and the staff were friendly and helpful.

Overall, not a bad stay. I was only there for about 4 nights, room was a on the smaller side but the bed was comfortable and I had an excellent view of the city from my room. Only complaint I had was that the keycard repeatedly failed to work after housekeeping left the room and I had to constantly go to the front desk to get it sorted. Not a bad spot, would stay again.
