First time travelling to DC. Found this location a short walk from the train station coming from the airport. A short walk to the wharf, and a slightly longer walk to the National Mall. Lots of ebikes in the area to help with faster transportation. Bed was comfortable. Room was small but well planned.

Furnishings are minimalist but the bed is comfortable. Room is quiet. Bathroom is modern. Heat, A/C, lights, blinds and TV are all controlled from an iPad, which has a learning curve for some, but all the tech was functional. I would stay here again.

Stayed here for 2 nights, was excellent. The room is different than your typical hotel room; it was smaller but uses the space efficiently. Wasn’t a problem for me, I enjoyed the difference. My only qualm was the rooftop was closed, and it wasn’t advertised anywhere on/in the hotel besides the tablet in room. Otherwise great stay and convenient to metro station.

Unique interesting decor. Bed is on a platform and is a little difficult to get into and out of, the person by the window has to crawl across the bed. But it was do able. Very clean, helpful and polite staff. I would stay here again.
