"The hotel is very new an decorated beautifully! It's located right off Dupont Circle next to tons of coffee shops, bars and restaurants. The room was perfect, with a large bathroom and plenty of space. The front desk team were exceptional. We were a big (fatigued from traveling) group with a lot of special requests over a 5 day stay. Johnnie and Kaejah went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect. We will definitely stay again. Highly recommend the Sixty!"
