    Value for money

We had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The staff at the front desk were incredibly friendly and accommodating. They went above and beyond to make our stay special, giving us free parking and a room on the top floor. The hotel facilities were excellent, with a delicious restaurant that served quick and tasty food. The cleanliness of the room was impeccable, and the beds were very comfortable. The location of the hotel was perfect, right next to a DC Metro stop, making it easy to explore the city.

Nothing, it is perfect.

Our stay at this hotel was fantastic. The cleanliness of the hotel exceeded our expectations, and the hotel facilities were top-notch. The location was perfect, with the subway stop just around the corner and an underground mall with Dunkin Donuts right nearby. We were amazed at how close we were to the Metro, making it incredibly convenient to explore the city. Additionally, the staff at the hotel, especially Lilly at the front desk, were friendly, helpful, and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was enjoyable.

Nothing at all.

Nothing I didn't like to be fair.
