The hotel gets a 3 because of it's location. Everything to sightsee in DC is only a quick 5 or 10 minute car ride if you're driving. Or the hotel offers a shuttle to the Metro or Pentagon City.

The rest, not so great. The room was dark, small and dingy with dated, chipped furniture and paint. One of the power outlets on the wall appeared to have melted at some point which was troubling. The hinges for the closet door hung crooked and seemed broken. I was also not impressed with the lack of counter space for the sink/vanity at all. There was barely room for me to balance my makeup case.

Also, the walls in this hotel are very thin. Prepare to hear your neighbor. We were woken up quite early by first, the sounds of a garbage truck outside on the street, and then by a group of teenagers in the hallway. The lack of insulation in the walls, windows and doors meant both sounded so loud they might have well been in the room.

They also up-charge like crazy compared to some of the other hotels I stayed at during this trip. Want wifi in your room? An extra 13.95 per night. Need parking? 24 bucks. How about continental breakfast? Another 16. I'm surprised the shuttles are free.

I'm glad we only spent 1 night.
