Parking was a bit confusing and further away, then we had to roll our suitcases on cobblestone lol. The name does not identify the hotel as a micro hotel so that was a bit of a surprise when we got there to seen the tiny room!

Nice, good (well, OK) rates. On checkin I was informed that "this is a micro hotel" which means that the room was tiny. Tiny like no drawers, nowhere to put an open suitcase for unpacking, the micro-desk's chair didn't have room to pull back enough to get into the chair.

I stayed there for the bar exam. It’s across the street from the Metro Chinatown/Gallery Place stop and 2 blocks from the Washington Convention Center, which made it super convenient. It was surprisingly quiet in the room, which allowed me a good night’s sleep both days. Bed was comfortable. As a microtel, room is only as big as a college dorm room, which was sufficient for my needs. Staff are all super friendly and really try to make your stay enjoyable. They kept stuff I bought in the fridge for me, so not having a fridge in the room wasn’t a big deal. I’m very picky about where I stay and don’t usually do reviews, but felt inspired to write this one because it is really a gem of a find.

Yo

When I checked in, the hotel told me Expedia hadn’t reserved my room. Expedia said it was the hotel’s fault for not booking it, and now there’s no room for me! … I’m traveling with my three-year-old, and we ended up going from a queen bed to bunk beds. Someone owes me an explanation… I’m never booking through Expedia again! Absolutely terrible!
