Hotel Location
Guest Reviews & Ratings
The hotel had clean and comfy rooms, but the strong smell of cleaning supplies was quite off-putting, requiring us to wash all our clothes after the stay. It was quiet and clean overall. The location was convenient, being walkable to various amenities and metro stations, although a bit of a walk to the subway. The dining experience was average, with problems like excessive oil in certain dishes. The facilities were decent.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were on the smaller side but in decent shape. However, there were some issues like stained carpets from a leak, malfunctioning lights, and a strong mildew odor. On the bright side, the location was excellent, just a short walk to the metro station, although some wood molding was falling off. The service was helpful in some instances like holding items for me, but it was mediocre overall. The dining experience left much to be desired with limited options and complimentary offerings that lacked commitment. Despite these drawbacks, the facilities were satisfactory.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were mostly clean and comfortable, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. However, the dining experience was a bit underwhelming, and the location felt a bit intimidating at times. Overall, a decent option for the price.
My stay at the hotel was a great experience overall. The rooms were very comfortable and perfect for my needs, but a bit small considering the price I paid. The service was top-notch, with cheerful and helpful staff. The location was excellent for exploring Washington DC, although there were some inconveniences like limited parking and multiple flights of stairs. The dining options offered a variety of choices, but the breakfast was a bit underwhelming. Despite some minor drawbacks, the hotel provided good value for money.
My stay at the hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. On one hand, the location was perfect right in the midst of Bethesda with easy access to various amenities, but on the other hand, the rooms had a musty, moldy smell that lingered on my belongings after I left. The service was amazing, especially for food and entertainment options, and the dining experience offered a nice variety despite a few letdowns. The value for the price paid was reasonable, though some facilities could use improvement.
