This place is so cute! It's in an incredibly convenient and walkable location right in the center of town close to shops and restaurants. We walked everywhere! Our room was really clean and nicely decorated. We felt very safe and loved our stay here!

Old cold and noisy

Only staff on site was a woman washing laundry so no service. Found a roach in the kitchen area. Freezing cold air gushed into our room through the leaky old window. We put pillows in front of the windows but that was not enough to block the drafts. Walls are so thin you can hear everything from the rooms next door and people walking and banging upstairs. We got no sleep and my wife ended up getting sick. worst stay of our trip. No staff so no one cleared the snow from in front of the hotel. Hotel should note that they have no parking and overnight parking is $31.00.

This is a simple, comfortable, clean place to stay which suited our needs very well. I'd give it excellent ratings in every category applicable and the reason I didn't is because there was a plug-in sent in the front hallway right outside our room. I am scent sensitive and the smell was so intense in the room that I went out to the hallway and unplugged it because it was giving me a headache. Beyond that it was a great place to stay.

A nice surprise in Georgetown!

A very good and clean no-frills inn situated in one of the most desirable neighborhoods of DC. My check-in was a bit wonky so be prepared to have your phone's flash light on when you use their kiosk. The kiosk reader could not read my drivers license so get your reading glasses ready if you need them when you check in as you'll have to type in all your info including drivers license number if the kiosk does not scan your ID. That was a very minor issue as the room was very clean and the bed was very comfortable with a clean shower and bathroom. I plan on staying here regularly. Highly recommend.

Convenient and clean! I will stay here again!

This was a great experience! Easy check-in. Clean and updated furniture and fixtures. The hot water does run out a bit early, but I'm sure that's something that can be adjusted easily by management.

Great place. A little confusing at first but you check in at a machine outside the building where you get the codes to the building and your room. The room was great.

The check in was unsuccessful as the kiosk would not accept number given to me from printout sheet. Waiting in 30° weather with wind blowing was not enjoyable whatsoever. Also room was acceptable, but water did not work in the shower. Obviously the owner is not on premises or has not updated property to be acceptable.

Parking is prohibitively expensive in this area and very inflexible. No in-out privileges etc. Hotels have a "it's your problem" hands off approach. Shameful and very mediocre experience. Also, bathroom smelt so that was also disgusting. Not very happy at all. I left 2 days earlier, despite no refunds.
