"Super helpful staff including check-in and room services. Room was clean and the location to The Anthem and the Mall was phenomenal. Breakfast was fabulous and the entire dining staff was attentive and friendly. I would definitely choose to stay here again. Only a handful of metro stops from Reagan airport to the hotel which rests above the L’Enfant station. Stayed multiple nights and days and they didn’t miss a beat or an opportunity to make the stay wonderful!"

"I want to love this property because staff are amazing (although everyone appears to be younger and I’m sensitive to age discrimination) and location really works for me but there are some obvious flaws… the large awkward inner bathroom door being the first, a floating column in the room being another, lighting being yet another (bathroom lighting is awful… too bright, no nightlight sensor), impossible to read bodycare labels, and poorly operable hairdryer and clothing steamer. Bed and linens are good quality, appreciate the complimentary bottled water, and loved the breakfast options and drinks menu (but quality of mixed drinks was uneven). This was my second time here and service has notched up but some things are not keeping up with recent trends and comfort. Still a better than average experience."

"First, the best thing about this hotel is the staff. Always helpful and they responded to any request with alacrity. For example, when my daughter and I came back after a wedding, she called to have ice brought up to our room. During her conversation, she mentioned that her feet were hurting after all that dancing. When the staff member appeared at our door, he carried not only a bucket of ice, but a bag (triple bagged) of ice for her aches. The hotel is a retro boutique hotel. When I entered my room, there was a turntable on the shelf as well as several vinyl records. Old photos decorated the walls. Bathroom fixtures were also old fashioned, although they functioned as well any more modern looking ones. Returning after lunch, I noticed that there was a radio station broadcasting from the lobby. I particularly noticed it, because when I walked in, I saw a light on a recording booth that said "On Air." A thoroughly pleasant stay!!"
