I was in DC to attend the largest conference for the transportation engineering and research business and I waited way too long to book a hotel. Three days before the conference, I looked these guys up. They had a pre-paid rate of $219/day and parking. No joke, that was the best deal left in the DuPont/Woodley Park/Adams Morgan area--and I literally called 20 hotels. I happily had the charges billed sight unseen.
From check in to check out I felt welcomed by the staff, comfortable with the accommodations, and as if I was in a very secure hotel. I also loved the location. I was close to so many of the best restaurants and bars in DC and not even too bad a walk to the DuPont Circle Metro Station. And this is going to sound completely off the wall, but the hotel smelled wonderful and so did the hotel-supplied toiletries.
The only one thing that got me was the parking situation. Maybe it's because I live out in the sticks and am not used to tight driving maneuvers, the garage was anxiety inducing. Once I got my car parked, it stayed there til I left town--but really, you don't need a car to have a wonderful time near the hotel. Parking was $28/day. That's not an outrageous amount for DC... though some indication that I'd have to remember moves I hadn't used since passing my driver's test might've been nice. And in their favor, they were willing to let me keep my car there for a few extra hours while I tied up the loose ends at my conference. But in this neighborhood a building with parking is unique in itself.
I would stay here again if in DC without a car. Or even with a car, but if I don't plan on using my car while in DC I may find an off-site lot to park at.
