The only three reasons to stay here at the $150 a night price. Parking is 4 blocks away, even though there is a garage next door. The rooms are tiny. There is no air conditioning. I hung my toiletries bag on the bathroom door hook and the hook fell off. The shower dangerously goes from scalding to cold often without warning. It's the only hotel I've ever been to that provides neither soap nor shampoo, so bring your own. The pillows are the thickness of towels and the towels are like sandpaper. Apparently, they are fave for travelling school groups, so expect herds of middle schoolers especially in spring.
The staff is exceptionally friendly, however, and you pay for location: a couple of blocks from metro, a couple of blocks from the Mall, a couple of blocks from the White House and from Chinatown. There are also a lot of good but overpriced restaurants nearby.
