TV options: Instead of lousy television options, would have appreciated Max, Hulu or at least Netflix. The only thing we were able to watch was The Office on Comedy Central, all other options were abysmally dispiriting and advertisements (unacceptable these days!). Noisy AC unit (though we at least were able to turn it off). No iron and ironing board in the room though plenty of room for one in the spacious closet. Safe in closet interfered with hanging space for clothes in the closet.

The location is excellent, on a tranquil, tree lined street a few blocks off of Dupont Circle, not far from Phillips Collection museum, our primary destination, quiet pleasantly walkable blocks to a variety of transportation and dining options, just a block from a bikeshare station with bicycles for rent that can be left at numerous stations conveniently located throughout the city. Staff was super friendly, professional and helpful! Breakfast at restaurant was delicious, served by gracious wait staff (only complaint, coffee was not hot). Our room was perfect, tastefully decorated as is the entire hotel, with beautiful fully tiled bathroom, incredibly comfortablr bed with variety of perfect pillows, screened windows that open attractive rugs, art work, neutral and tranquil. Our room was generous, very quiet and that was much appreciated! There was no street or other noise at all (only drawback was there was also no view of the location, only of the backs of neighboring buildings. No annoying ambient noise! Shower and rest of bathroom were excellent, a large space, tastefully and practically, thoroughly appointed with a large dressing room area, well lit mirrors. Beautiful, large wood headboards perfect accent to the mostly neutral, imminently restful, light, solid colors of the rest of the room, very clean, beautifully, thoughtfully appointed to the last detail, incliding convenient bedside light and charging plug options, shelves, luggage rack, cheerful tall red wooden sturdy stool, upholstered lounge chair with ottoman, round table and chairs for two seating area. Large closet with two beautiful green cotton, waffle knit bathrobes, multiple, various hangers to meet every need, top shelf motion detection light, heavy muslin spacious laundry bag. Noiseless small refrigerator (much appreciated). Loved the textured, beautiful and plentiful assorted sizes bath towels and soft cotton, chemical fragrance free bed linens!

Really nothing.

The room has huge, much larger than we expected for a double queen. Bathroom facilities were great, very spacious with a decent shower. Onsite restaurant facilities were great for breakfast as well.

Location not so convenient for those who are not driving. It's not so near to the metro or any eatery. Need to walk a distance.

The room is spacious, cosy and tidy. Wifi in the room is fast compared to others.

The restaurant for brunch was a bit noisy for us - it’s a very popular place!

Great room with comfy bed, wonderful shower and lovely decor in the bedroom/kitchenette and bathroom. Fantastic location in a gorgeous historic part of the city - will be back again. Highly recommend!

There is a Metro station nearby but the hotel is still within walking distance of all the major attractions. In a quieter, more residential part of the city.

Nothing. Thank you for an exceptional stay!

Beautiful hotel in a beautiful neighbourhood. The hotel is spotlessly clean, full of character due to its architecture, and has all the facilities you could need. Staff were all exceptionally helpful, polite and friendly. Rooms/ bed were extremely comfortable, quiet, with a good wifi connection. In-house restaurant/ food was very tasty.

We were there for 12 days. The rooms did not have dresser drawers. No where to unpack your undergarments or clothing. We did get housekeeping to bring in an extra plastic vanity in the bathroom. So they tried to help. The room was small which we expected given the hotels age. However there was no seating where you can set and relax so you can watch TV. Or read a book. Also the tv was hanging on a wall to the left of the bed. It made it very difficult for two people to watch the tv. Since we were at the hotel for so long it would have been nice to have a comfortable space to relax after a long day of sightseeing. They do have a nice conservatory on the bottom floor. However the chairs there were not real comfortable. Also there was no TV down there. The first day the front desk did offer a little bigger room on the ground floor. We didn’t want to be on the ground floor but in retrospect perhaps we should have.

Location, staff, restaurant and bar. The hotel is in a wonderful neighborhood with great restaurants, relaxing area to stroll though. The food at the hotel was very good.

Everything.

Kitchenette only had an additional sink. No microwave or stove.

The neighborhood is beautiful and it feels safe. The room with the kitchenette is spacious enough if you travel with a baby.

The room heater was not working. We were not told this, until we called and they brought a small portable heater. No instructions were given as to how to operate the room heater or air. We had some complementary items in the room, but we were not told until we were ready to leave. There were no instructions in the room about how to call the desk, what was available to us, or would cost, i.e. the snacks and drinks frig. Ice had to be ordered from downstairs.

The room was immaculate. The bed was extremely comfortable. The location was fairly convenient to the sites in DC. The staff was wonderful. They were all friendly and helpful.

Very little storage for clothes and bathroom counter space was hard to navigate with health and beauty items. I had to pretty much operate out of a bag. Our window view was the side of a building, but we were in the room so little that that did not matter a great deal. Room refrigerator was too small to house boxed restaurant leftovers.

Very eclectic, excellent restaurant, staff members were all very helpful and friendly. Loved the location with access to the National Mall and many restaurants and shops nearby. Such a great and unique style!

It was unique.

It was in a beautiful Art Deco building and very tastefully decorated.

Our room was dark, not enough lighting especially in the areas where you had your suitcases. thermostat wasn't working properly so first night it was cold. Engineer brought a heater up for our last night which was great.

Nice location, friendly and helpful staff.

There was only one bathrobe in the closet for two people perhaps 2 bathrobes If we had asked we would have been given one. Very minor observation

The AC didn't work and the air went thin. Fortunately we managed to open the window a bit but it was unpleasant. The carpet was stained could also use deep cleaning. The staff put a ventilator in the room but without fresh air input it was just moving the air so it was not really useful.

The room was nice and spacious enough for our family of 4. The bathroom and the kitchenette were very clean. The restaurant is nice and the price is adequate. We had the breakfast included in our reservation and we were pleased by it. The staff was nice and helpful.

The location was perfect--there was easy access to the Metro and several bus lines. There were also great restaurants within walking distance from the hotel. The room itself was lovely and bright, and the bed was very comfortable.
