I stayed at the Citizen M Capitol due to the proximity to the Museum of the Bible. It was an easy & safe walk. This Citizen M stay was my first & was very nice. Clean, comfortable, efficient, & funky! I love their business model. I will be recommending it.

We can’t say enough good things about how friendly the front desk staff and dining staff was during our entire 4 day stay..The rooms are small but very cozy and very clean..The technology is easy to grasp and the staff was there to answer any and all of our questions. If you are traveling via the metro system during your stay you will LOVE this place even more, the metro/subway is literally right around the corner..Highly recommend CitizenM to all!!
The lounge area located next to the bar. Cool area

This is a hotel that attempts to be a European hotel but fails miserably as it isn’t in Europe. The fact no basic amenities such as ice or a bottle opener in the room was frustrating. This hotel is out of touch with its geographic position and the markets they serve. Much better options nearby. I travel extensively throughout the world hands down one of the most disappointing places I’ve stayed in USA
