2/10 Poor

Disgusting

The elevator was broken and I had to walk 5 floors to find my room dirty with left over food. Disgusting!
Hiram, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

This place should be condemned! Do not stay here

Horrible Place! Gross conditions everywhere. And then to top it off, a fire...Hotels.com should be ashamed of listing this place!
Lynn, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

Wouldn’t ever stay there again!!!!

This hotel is totally not worth the money. Heed the warnings of the other reviews and don’t make the same mistake I did. This place is out dated, dirty, the porch was closed near the pool so there was no where to sit outside. The lady checking me in didn’t even check my id upon check in. Tv didn’t work and there was a power surge when we were there where all the electric went out for a short period and made the elevator stop working. The workers didn’t seem to care. The tub was absolutely filthy and the toilet seat was so loose you couldn’t sit on it (not that I would have bc it was kinda dingy) I would totally never stay here again. Do yourself a favor and spend the extra money and stay at the hotel down the street.

6/10 Good

Good and comfortable beds, breakfast bags to go are ok. The building is old and in need of upgrades but location is great.
Ismael, 7-night trip

6/10 Good

Old, outdated property. Staff is nice and location is convenient to NIH. It’s the cheapest in the area but still not worth the price for the condition it’s in.
Lily, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Horrible

It was horrible. Elevator did not work. We booked 3 rooms with 2 beds and they one had one the rest were single beds. We had to get 4 single rooms because the 2 bed room was on the 5th floor and my friend was handicap and could not walk all the stairs. Kids running around all over candy all over the floor trash all over. It smelled and tv remote did not work right. I felt like i stayed at the roach motel. The guy that checked us in charged me for 3 cars when we had only brought 1 car. The lady that checked us out had to fix everything. Then there is the continental breakfast.... there is none. Its a bagged breakfast.

Sub standard hotel

The customer service was amazing but the hotel wasn't so clean and the condition wasn't great.
Joseph, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Worst possible place to stay!

This is more of a shelter for low-income families than a hotel. The front desk person reeked of marijuana and wanted an extra 40 dollars just to hand us the room key. Homeless people were loitering in the lobby and there was urine on the floor. The room smelled terrible. We left immediately.

Easy check in great beds, quiet.
Edward, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Not for me

Elevator door wouldn’t open on 4th floor where my room was. Blankets had multiple stains on them and mattress was soiled. Ended up leaving about 30 minutes after checking in.

6/10 Good

10 min walk from Washington Metro. A variety of restaurants within a 10 min walk and a nice Mexican restaurant right outside the front door.
Keith, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The staff are beyond exceptional, always helpful and friendly and the convenience of shopping and location was very helpful during my stay
Catherine, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Bathroom not cleaned. And they don't offer any continental breakfast at all. I will never put my feet in this place and I don't recommend it to anyone
Marie-Judie, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Hotel is very convenient to NIH, and the staff is great. But, they've let the condition of the property fall below what I'd consider adequate. The bathroom had a few plumbing issues, the room door was difficult to open, and the mattresses are at the end of their lives.
Richard, 1-night trip

It was a convenient location while in the area.
