We’ve now stayed with this hotel twice to visit DC. We enjoy it’s quiet location, while still being close to the subway and lots of dining options. Staff is always welcoming and helpful, and the rooms are clean. Definitely recommended for families. Us parents also like that in the evenings there is a bar downstairs, so that we can have a drink while the kids settle into bed.
