We stayed at the Americana and used the metro so I didn't have to try to navigate the city. It was definitely not a quality hotel but we felt safe and it was somewhat on the cheap side. They had free parking and free shuttle to metro. Free breakfast was just fruit, a muffin and bagel and juice I think.... More

This is my third stay at the Americana, and I wouldn't stay anywhere else (1996, 2006, 2013). It's quaint, small, retro, and I love it. You can walk less than 2 blocks to the metro. They have pickup/drop off at the Reagan airport. Their staff members have been there for YEARS and know the area, know the hotel, and know... More

For only 63 $, You get a basic room, a bathroom where the shower is working, no bed mugs, a free parking und breakfast and that only 5 min from Downtown Washington , the Arlington Cemetary and the Pentagon. The other Hotels in DC charge 30 Dollar for just a parking place, so this is really a bargain. Check in... More

The price and location attracted me to this hotel. Both were excellent. I would definitely stay here again. I booked a standard room, which is cheaper because they have not been upgraded. It was shabby but clean and fresh smelling. The furnishings were entirely adequate and the free wifi worked well. The breakfast selection is small but of good quality.... More

1/2 the price of other basic hotels that i have stayed in. rooms were as basic as they come but clean, bed was very comfortable and it was convenient to the metro. I found the staff was helpful and had no issue with wifi speed as had been reported by others. there was a small fridge in the room -... More

I am so glad I found this hotel for a vacation with my husband from May 1-5. Before arriving, I saw that someone recommended using 1400 South Eads Street as the address in your GPS, which is what we did, and it worked perfectly. I also checked out google maps beforehand and saw that the entrance to the hotel parking... More

Stayed there one night right after a night at the Marriott in DC. I booked a room at the Marriott online happy with a good rate just to find out nothing was included so spent double there I was extremely happy to find Americana with included breakfast and free parking ( we spent $50 at Marriott). The stuff here was... More

I booked the Americana for my DC stay without hesitation. It turned out to be a terrific decision - saving me hundreds of dollars. As well as value for money, this place offers a whole lot more. The location is terrific - easy access to DC on the subway system as well as walking distance to Pentagon City mall, Crystal... More

Hotel/motel has several advantages like position close to metro, free wifi and breakfasts, free parking, cheap loundry (only 1 dollar for 1 load). Staff is quite friendly. Rooms are quite old but everything looks fine. Absolutelly affordable price if comparing to other hotels in Washington DC! What caused some discomfort is how loud it is in the room: windows face...
