It looked nothing like the photos. I didn’t get the renovated room that was posted on Hotels.com and it was very disappointing for the price.

Worst overnight stay in 45 years

This was the WORST hotel experience I have had in my decades of business travel. The room smelled like the inside of a NYC taxi (putid air freshener), the decor the decor is "early suburban thrift shop cast-offs", no bottled water available or for sale, ice machine not working. Partying revelers in the hallway at 3:30 in the morning. Registered for a 3 nights stay; checked out after 4.5 hours after asthma attack from the air freshener; physical safety was also questionable. Their response: "We don't do refunds."

A good place to be

This was the second place I stayed while on my trip, such a relief from the first. It was clean and quiet and felt safe. No breakfast but I don't eat that anyway.

Excellent for a night away.

For a one night stay when you have plans. This hotel is a budget friendly option. If you just need a place to lay your head, I would recommend for a day trip but not for a week unless you’re really on a budget or traveling alone. The location is excellent. There’s ample on street parking surrounding the in on the weekends. It’s a good 30 minute walk to Dupont Circle or the Lincoln theater.

The Windsor Inn was a throwback to an earlier age with great working AC, and though the room was small, it did provide everything I needed for one person on a business trip. It was not fancy but very serviceable and very right on the price for DC.
