My wife and I were there in Washington DC to visit our daughter. Really easy check-in. Just gotta make sure you check your email before going. They'll give you a passcode to give you access to your room. The desk is staffed from around 7 AM to 10 or 11 PM. If you need anything, you just have to text the number that they communicate with you with.. we were only there for three nights, but there is a lot of storage and electrical outlets and a nice size fridge if you're gonna stay longer. I would definitely stay here again if I come back to Washington DC.!!!!

The location was wonderful and very convenient to the metro and all the places we wished to visit. We will definitely stay here on subsequent visits to DC. The kitchen was well kitted out with everything we needed, dishes, utensils, large full size fridge, Keurig coffee maker, microwave, stove top , dishwasher and small washer/dryer, which was everything we could wish for and made it so convenient for our stay. Loads of cabinets and 2 wardrobes. Comfortable bed. Pillows could be softer. It was very quiet and we slept well. Very clean and we loved the hardwood and tile floors and not having carpet anywhere. We were able to recycle our trash in well appointed locations on each floor. Staff were wonderful and very accomodating.

The property is a renovated mansion converted into a number of appartments : there in lies the major problem as the floor above our basement apartment was wooden; the noise from the upstairs apartment effectively disturbed our sleep most nights
Not parties ; just walking around and moving furniture
The Du Pont circle location is excellent but car parking is difficult and costly
Checking in is not straight forward ; especially after 11 pm
On the Plus side ; everything worked as to washing machine; dish washer etc
Very good super market 15 minutes walk away
Would I rebook another time; probably ; but not one of the basement appartments
You really need to understand what you are getting

This is a restored mansion on Dupont Circle. The property has two parts - rooms in the original mansion, which are near event spaces, and an addition they call a courtyard.

Good things about the property: the location is wonderful, the price is reasonable for the area, and the staff are very helpful.

Not so good things: the biggest problem with the property is the fixed furnishings. The wardrobes, cabinets and vanities are all made from a cheap particle board that can't handle the DC humidity. The boards are curling, peeling and sometimes falling apart. It leaves a very bad impression. Second, it is not clear if the rooms are cleaned regularly. The beds are just okay, kind of Fairfield Inn quality level. There are not instructions for the washer dryer, and I couldn't get it to work.

Things to note: They did not have any events during my stay, but I can see how that might be a problem for light sleepers in the mansion rooms. You have to walk through event spaces to get to the mansion rooms. The courtyard rooms are a little smaller, but probably quieter. The higher courtyard floors have nice views.

If you can roll with the substandard fixed furnishings, you can't find a better location. If you need perfection, this is not the place for you.

This is my go-to spot in DC. The location is great—right next to the Metro and surrounded by dining options. My only caveat involves their after-hours check-in process. While they are supposed to email instructions for late arrivals, this doesn't always happen if you book through a third party. On one visit, the front desk staff seemed frustrated that I had not registered. Before my second stay, I reached out for the registration email but never heard back. Fortunately, it didn't cause any actual issues. Despite this, it’s still a fantastic place to stay and I highly recommend it.

I was pleasantly surprised with this visit! I booked this room bundled with my flight so I could save money and it turned out to be the best decision I could have made. It’s in a prime location, close by restaurants and the metro train, and had a lovely view.

The room itself had TONS of storage space and was clean. There were a couple negative aspects that I simply just overlooked bc everything else was great: the couch needed a deep clean, there was no full length mirror in my unit, the shower smelled a little, and there was one pillow under the pillowcase that needs cleaning.

Overall, I was impressed. The staff was wonderful and I would definitely stay here again as well as recommend it to anyone.

The hotel rooms are nothing like in the pictures. The rooms are on the \"Courtyard\" level with is essentially the basement. All those big windows in the pics - those are acrually tiny windows that are underground and you are below the sidewalk. The hallway outside the rooms are accross the hall from the trash room - so it smells so bad I almost vomited several times. The smell seeps into the rooms. They tried to cover the smell with an air scent thing that makes it even worse. The room had outlets that didnt work, and the door had a large gap under it - which allowed the smell, noise and light in the room. The walls are super thin so I could hear my neighbors conversation verbatim. The listing also shows a hotel bar - that also doesnt exist. Such a HUGE disappointment!!!

This place had high reviews but it did not live up to the reviews. The floors were sticky, there was dust everywhere, it was extremely loud. It was quieter being outside on the street than in the room on the 7th floor. I felt dirty in the room and packed up a day early becuase I couldn't wait to leave. I did not enjoy my time in the room except for sleeping--the bed was comfy and the bathroom was clean. The washing machine and dryer did not work. Canceled the cycle.

The studio was perfect in many ways. Well equipped and well thought out. An excellent location in beautiful neighborhood, and just steps to the Metro station. However, it was very difficult to get rest as the noise from traffic (horns honking constantly, emergency vehicle sirens, etc) was overwhelming. Hopefully the hotel replaces windows in the older building with sound-proof windows. Until then, ear plugs are a necessity!

Room a little tired, bed not very comfortable. Great location though, beautiful building and really nice staff. Shame about the “ball” on the Saturday night. With a party like that - going past the venue’s “quiet hours” - you’d expect to be forewarned - both at the time of booking (we booked a week out) and during the week leading up to the event. That lack of warning changed my view of the place considerably.

The room was fantastic. Location excellent. Very clean and almost everything was in working fashion. The only issue was the washer / dryer combo machine. We tried to wash out clothes the night before leaving and we got about 40 minutes through the wash cycle into the spin cycle and the machine began to shake violently like it was off balance. We thought it might exploded by how back it was shaking. Or at the very least someone would be knocking on our door complaining. Thankfully that never happened and I just cut the wash short to just skip to the drying portion. However, it seemed as if the vent had never been cleaned out. The dryer would get extremely hot even though we had it on low heat setting. Then it would only dry for about 10 minutes then stop and display a message saying \"cancelled.\" We tried looking for the vent to clean it out ourselves but could find it. And the one spot we thought it might be at we couldn't access without a tool. So we had to pack soaking wet clothes for our flight home. So our last night was unfortunate because that took until about 1:30 am until we gave up on that. But other than that situation we truly loved it and will definitely be coming back. Just not using the washer/dryer combo machine haha.

I have mixed feelings about this property. View, light, and privacy are very important to me, so I called ahead to make sure we’d be in a room facing the square (in the older building), not one overlooking the adjacent wall, as some reviewers had warned. I was advised to book a one-bedroom instead of a studio , as I had originally planned.
Unfortunately, upon arrival, we were placed in a room facing another building with very little light or privacy—and directly next to the noisy elevator. The room also wasn’t very clean. When I asked to switch rooms, the front desk couldn't help that evening (it was only 6.30pm), and I was told to speak to the manager the next morning. Thankfully, the manager was kind and accommodating, and moved us to a studio, which was exactly what we were hoping for—bright, full of natural light, and facing the square. There was some traffic noise at night, but it didn’t bother us.
In short: our first room was a 1-star experience, the second was a 5-star. So overall, it’s a mixed review and i am glad we were able to change room after 1 night.
Location is really great, and close to restaurants and shops. Lots of options within 10-15 min walk.

Because of my flight, I arrived extremely late (around 1:00 am). When I arrived, I learned that I needed to fill out a form that Expedia should have sent me and never did. In addition, because of my delayed arrival, they declared the room as \"no show.\" So I needed assistance with this mess. There is only a one-way camera to talk to someone, and I spent over an hour filling out the form and waiting for a room to be assigned to me - even when I had paid in full for my stay. I was provided with different codes to access my room, and several did not work while I was communicating with the person just over email. Extremely poor customer service

Spacious but in need of maintanence

Amazing location and very spacious and clean apartment. A few in room issues such as the first day the sink plug was broken meaning the sink would not drain. This was however sorted within 24hrs by staff. Bathroom sliding door was faulty and would often fall off the hinges. This resulted in us twice becoming trapped in the bathroom. The shower in the room was slow and for some reason the hairdyer would only blow cold air. No proper sheet covering on the duvet (duvet laid betweent to flat sheets), leaving the duvet exposed which was odd.
