Our hotel room is amazinggg! They also have a welcoming letter and some treats. I like how big is our room only for overnight. I just suggest that th parking in hotel should be included in the rate esp. its only overnight. But overall 10/10 ⭐️

The property felt like it hadn't been updated since the late 80's. Looks old and very average. Room size was nice, but that is really the only positive. Based on price, you are grossly over paying for a larger room. We were put in a handicap accessible room, which wasn't ideal. Shower was straight out of a 70's horror film. Beds were old and uncomfortable. Not worth the price we paid at all.

Left out in the cold
We’ve been there before to go to the Kennedy Center. Location is perfect to walk to. The room was fine. On the night of the Kennedy Honors…a Sunday night at 10pm….our key didn’t work to get into the front door of the Hotel!!! We were knocking on the door…the intercom didn’t work and it was cold and scary to be alone at night in DC at the Hotel we paid for and not be able to get anyone to open the door. There was no one in the lobby Or front desk. We were in shock!!! This should NEVER EVER HAPPEN TO ANYONE!!!!! I feel we should be compensated for the horrible inconvenience and awful experience.

Enjoyable Stay
We traveled to Georgetown for a concert at the JFK Center and decided to spend the night at the Residence Inn Washington DC/Foggy Bottom. This hotel is in a convenient location - a quick drive to Georgetown, the Smithsonian, Capitol, Zoo - and walkable to the JFK Center and Washington Harbor. The hotel was comfortable, the staff was extremely nice and helpful, and the breakfast was decent. Onsite parking is very limited and is $60 per night, but they let us park there until the concert was over the next day.

Perfect neighborhood for sightseeing in DC. Every place we wanted to visit was walkable or close to metro. Nice restaurants, drug store, market nearby. Large suite. Smallish bathroom but normal for the age of the hotel. Very clean. Excellent breakfast buffet. Comfy bed. Priced ok for what you get and the location. Excellent customer service.

We had issues with our TV. Due to the tropical storm we had to stay in more than we expected. We asked for help 3 times. Once we did get some help but still had problems after that which they didn’t care about. Front desk staff rude and uninterested in customer service.

Registration desk was excellent and always helpful to find dining options, etc. The room was clean and spacious - it helps to have the living/kitchen areas. We stayed 4 nights and never had maid service even though we requested it twice so that was a negative. And of course while the breakfast is a plus the mob at breakfast makes it undesirable. But for sleeping and having a home base - it's excellent.

Everything close in to DC proper is expensive, but I would prefer this hotel, all things being equal. Great location and service from the friendly staff, room was spacious and comfortable. Just a couple blocks from Foggy Bottom Metro station so easy to get to Mall or Reagan Airport or even Eastern Market. If weather is good, it's a 15-20 minute walk to Georgetown, through a lovely area.

The check in was really easy. Though we got there 3 hours early, Fred helped with parking and helped my daughter and I find the bathroom, while my husband parked. Fred and the entire hotel staff were very friendly and welcoming. The room was quiet, large and clean. The free breakfast was better than average. Would highly recommend.

The property is under renovation which was well communicated prior to my checking in, and was not a problem. The room was clean and well appointed, the kitchen had everything I could want. The staff were wonderful. I cannot think of another hotel where I was treated with such warmth and every question, request and need was promptly and efficiently addressed. Breakfast was fantastic. What was an extremely stressful trip was made much more bearable by the fine people at this hotel!
