I stayed at the hotel and found it to be conveniently located, but the room was noisy and lacked proper cooling. The service was friendly but could use improvement in room maintenance. The location was great with easy access to restaurants and attractions, the dining options were limited, and the facilities were average.

The room, unfortunately, was quite noisy and didn't cool down properly. It faced an outdoor hallway with bright lights. It was uncomfortable at times due to a loud rattling sound that disrupted our sleep.

9.0/10

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The location was great, with easy access to both Dupont Circle and U Street. The rooms, while quaint and spacious, lacked natural light, which was a bit disappointing. The service was friendly and helpful, but there were instances of staff not being as welcoming. The dining options were limited, but the Japanese food was a nice surprise.

Rooms

The room had a window but overlooked a sad inner courtyard. It was big enough for my son and me, though quite small with hardly any daylight.

Service

7.5

The staff really cared about guests and were generally nice and helpful. However, some members didn't seem too eager to serve.

6.8/10

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were acceptable for an old building, but those in the 'garden area' are to be avoided, especially in cold weather. The service was professional and helpful, although the staff's friendliness came off as slightly odd. The location was lovely, with restaurants nearby, yet a bit further from downtown. The dining experience left much to be desired, with limited and unimpressive breakfast options.

Rooms

7.0

My room was at the basement level, which meant no guests above or to the side, but it was a little shabby. The rooms are okay for an old building, just be cautious about choosing those in the 'garden area', especially during colder seasons.

Service

7.0

The staff was very professional and helpful, even though some interactions felt a bit strange. While they were friendly, there was an air of unease in their service approach.

Location

8.0

The hotel is situated in a lovely area with close-by restaurants, and although it's convenient, it's a tad far from downtown. Close to Dupont Circle, it offers good cafes and restaurant choices.

Dining

5.0

In terms of dining, the experience was lackluster with a limited selection of breakfast options. The offering was not particularly appealing, consisting of basic choices and subpar beverages.

Facilities

The hotel's facilities were sufficient for my needs during the stay. Nothing particularly outstanding but functional overall.
