Small space: good value

Stayed for one night to run a half marathon; definitely suitable for couples or singles. Would NOT recommend for kids. Very small rooms but nice for travelers on a budget or couples trying to get away for a weekend

Small rooms

The hotel room was very small. I felt like I was on a cruise ship. I was disappointed that no microwaves, irons or ironing boards were in the room. There was only 1 drawer to put our clothes in.

Great location, Basic Needs Met

Wonderful location for many museums in DC, Fairly spartan rooms, but with a modern feel. If all one needs is a place to sleep, this is great option. Do not expect frills, but it works for many.

Overall it was a pretty good stay. I liked the iPad that controlled the lights and curtains and tv. My biggest complaint is that the bed was too firm so I didn't get a great night's sleep.

Minimalist type accommodations. Probably perfect for millennials. Interesting unique decor. What’s with the stuffed doll type throw pillow? Kind of creepy. Where would kids sleep? Infants & toddlers can sleep in the drawer under the bed but what about the older kids?
