Really nice place to stay, very clean, cute modern look and comfortable beds. Coffee shop was also delicious. Very close walk to metro station (10 min) and 2 min walk to bus station. The location was great-near embassy row, felt safe. Will stay here again next time I am in DC.
The design of this hotel is very posh. The front desk staff were friendly and funny. Hotel location was convenient to plenty of restaurants, bars and transportation.
The staff in this hotel goes the extra 1,000 miles to be helpful and kind. The hotel is fun, the food is great and the location cannot be beat. Will certainly return.
Room itself was very clean and nice, but it was very hot and the ac temperature was hard to use. The room wasnt ready however when we got there to check in, and had to wait an extra 30 minutes past our check in time which has never happened anywhere else and was a bit frustrating. Staff was also a bit rude at some points when the parking garage door wouldnt open, acting like it was our fault. Parking is $50 which is a LOT for how small and how difficult it is to park in there, especially with a bigger car or an SUV. Trucks DEFINITELY cannot fit in this parking lot/garage so please be aware of this.
The hotel was in a good location and clean. However, the pool wasn’t clean and there were so many mosquitoes by the pool I guess from all the trees (not really the hotels fault). Also, the pillows they have in the rooms are so thin they’re like paper … they need to upgrade their pillows.
I stayed here while attending a conference across the street. This was an excellent choice. The staff were very friendly and helpful, my room was ready early, there is a nice coffee shop and Mexican restaurant, there are unique spaces in the lobby to work or just sit. The room I stayed in was clean, it had a hairdryer, iron, great shower, and everything was comfortable. Just bring your own preferred shower products (shampoo, etc.) They only have the handwash and combo shower gel/shampoo on the wall. Great value for the area, I would stay here again. Access to enter the hotel is more on a hill, so you do have to pull your bag up and down it just a bit. I took the train, so I didn't park, but compared to my colleagues who stayed across the street at a chain hotel, and from what I saw at that hotel for the conference, I made the perfect choice! The price when booked early with easy cancellation clause, was over half off the chain hotel.
Room was clean. Cafe and restaurant were good. Very helpful staff. Minor issue with tv sound cutting out intermittantly, was annoying but not.that big of a deal. One elevator wasnt working but waits for the one working werent too bad. Lots of construction in the area but quiet at night.
This is my second time staying here and it was once again a great experience! DuPont is the life of DC and I needed to be in the middle of it! This time the pool was open and such a relaxing spot after a day of touring the Capitol!! The staff go above and beyond to make your stay amazing!
The staff have been great! The location gives you the ability to step away from the craziness of the National Mall and Downtown. Very close to the DuPont Circle Metro for easy access to anywhere in the city and beyond!
Highly recommend this accommodation.
Rooms were clean, and the staff was polite and helpful. Our room was a little warm and humid. We told the front desk and they gave us a fan for the room and that was a lifesaver. The pool was a great place to cool off after being at the national mall all day. My only real complaint would be that there was no ice bucket in the room and nowhere to get ice. Other than that, it was an amazing stay.
The hotel had great amenities and a welcoming lobby that also smelled so good. Both the restaurant and coffee shop exceeded my expectations. We hosted a large event at Pikio Taco, and it was fantastic—the food, drinks, atmosphere, and service were all excellent. Throughout our stay, the staff was consistently friendly, helpful, and accommodating.
The coffee shop served excellent coffee, and the breakfast was surprisingly good. I honestly wasn't expecting much, so it was a pleasant surprise.
The room was comfortable, and while the bathroom was fairly basic, everything was clean and functional. Overall, this was a great place to stay in the area, and I would definitely recommend it to others.
My favorite hotel in DC. Staff is exceptional, Tina, Baby, Danny, Reyna and the housekeeping staff make every visit wonderful. The restaurant and the coffee shop are top notch. Best value and experience in DC!
