It's not a great looking hotel from the outside, but inside is lovely and must have recently undergone a renovation. The pool area was spacious and well-laid out. The landscaping around the deck definitely caught my eye. I was worried to see my room was next to the elevator, but didn't hear a sound from the hall the entire time I was there, even at night. Beds are super comfy. Rooms are a bit small but not too bad. AC was working really well, though, which is so important in DC in June. And, it's a quick and easy cab ride away from National Airport.

Cons:
No bell hop.
No full length mirror in the room.
No check-in before 4--they state this on their site and when you arrive, but there appears to be zero flexibility on this. Which is even more frustrating when at 4, 4:15 and 4:20 they still won't check people in--not to mention the time it took to check in lines and lines of (anxious) people.
Immediate neighborhood lacks amenities.
