I stayed here about a decade ago and really liked it, but the property now feels dated and in need of a refresh. I decided to give it another try on one of my monthly DC trips but likely won’t return. The front desk staff weren’t very welcoming, and the room and kitchen both felt worn and outdated. That said, the Foggy Bottom location is excellent - convenient and walkable.
