Child at GW- great option for hotel
Child at GWU. Second time here. Small hotel, great location (close to Mall and Georgetown in nice area). Pretty hotel, clean. Bathroom paint bubbled but I think bc small and likely too much condensation from shower. Personally prefer to larger chains in area. Easier to get in and out

Weekend Stay
2nd time staying here. I booked through Hotels.com..I honestly feel like I would get a better room location if booked with the hotel directly. My first room was nice but the view was the worst, all pipes and building mechanisms. This time I got a room on the 1st floor and my view was a brick wall. I didnt ask to be switched, I just dealt with it.The front desk staff was very nice and helpful.

A stay that wasn't
The property had a major issue and cancelled my reservation. The issue occurred hours before I arrived however I was not notified that I wouldn't be able to stay at the hotel until I arrived. I was forced to wander the streets at midnight looking for another hotel with immediate availability. I had to bill a very expensive room to my employer and now have to submit a detailed explanation for why I exceeded my travel budget to my manager. This could have been avoided if the hotel had communicated the issue earlier in the day.

The staff was all very friendly and the room was comfortable. Everyone was happy to answer questions and make our stay go smoothly. Lizbeth at the front desk checked us in very late at night and was very helpful and friendly in our exhausted stupor!
