fantastic stay!

wonderful staffsafe atmosphereeasy transportation
John and christina at the front desk were so wonderful. They helped me with local knowledge. they assisted with transportation, always making sure i had everything i needed ! it is in a great location, and i felt safe walking around at any time. i found little shops nearby and it was close to the metro. this.
the rooms could use a little updating, particularly the grout around the bath, mouldy.

great hotel, friendly service

comfortable staygreat serviceadjustable temperature
the hotel had a good location near the metro station. the staff ensured our stay was comfortable and were prepared to go above and beyond. i found the staff at reception to be particularly good with great service.
the air conditioning turns off when you leave the room. i could not adjust it so it was too hot when i arrived and too cold at night. the temperature was not adjustable as i wanted.
