Average

It was an average type of stay. We had a few issues that were not resolved at the time of our stay: our TV was not working and the attendant would not come and fix it after I spent 30 minutes standing in line to talk to a person at the front desk. The room was not very clean: there were crushed crayons all over the floor as we walked into the room and the bathroom was not cleaned.

Hotel was very clean. It is an older property but seemed to be well maintained. Our rooms were next to the railroad tracks which was the only downside. To be honest, I never noticed the train at night while trying to sleep, so it was never an issue.

Room was not cleaned when we went to the room. The security latch on the door was defective. I had to repair with a Phillips screwdriver. The lack of in facility dining experience was terrible. The property has great potential with its location. Alas, I would not stay there again. Disappointed in IHG!!!

Location, location! Just a couple of blocks’ walk to the Air and Space Museum, this property is a great value and seems popular with families. The staff was friendly and helpful. While the rooms don’t have microwaves, there are some available in the market area in the lobby. There is a Starbucks in the building, and a McDonalds and by-the-slice (or pie) pizza place on the same block for quick meal options (the downstairs bar/grill doesn’t offer much unless you just need an adult beverage). Short walk to Metro, or there are always taxis waiting outside the hotel if you’re going further afield. Note there are trains nearby; they didn’t wake me at night, though (we were on the top floor). Mattresses a little too firm for my taste. Not the most updated place, but it was clean and more than adequate for the price and we had a comfortable stay. Would visit again.

Low water pressure in the shower. No exhaust fan in the bathroom. Really, you've been building hotels forever and you don't put an exhaust fan in the bathroom. Also the mattress was overly firm. What I need in a hotel is a good mattress and a decent shower. But it was conveniently located.
