“Worst ever! Stay away !”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed October 5, 2010

The only positive things I can say are the following: the rooms (we booked 3 at the same time) had enough space for the luggage and there was hot water in the shower. The negative points on the other hand... All beds (in 3 rooms) had bed bugs, the rooms were dirty (not cleaned) when we arrived: hair on the bathroom floor, dust everywhere (lamps, toilet,...), a weird smell...
We spoke to the motel manager explaining that we were not satisfied with the cleanliness. He was kind and talked immediatly to cleaners. One of the women was very rude and angry to us. She "cleaned" the 3 rooms again, but there was actually no difference.
The neighbourhood felt not so safe. Every night there was a police patrol at the entrance of the motel...and it was necessary ! One night we heard gun shots and one time we received a call in the middle of the night asking if we wanted to buy some porn !!! my goodness. It wasn't an error, this person wanted to sell something.
The distance to the subway (New York Ave - Florida Ave) was not that far (10 minute walk), but you had to cross a bridge which wasn't always safe for pedestrians.

Conclusion: I advise you to pay a little bit more instead of staying a this motel which wasn't worth $109 a night!

“NO! Never!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed August 13, 2010

This is the first time in my life when i have taken efforts to write a review about any hotel stay experience, I now know its time to contribute to the well being of mankind!!

Never make the mistake I made. for a few $20-$30 savings, i decided to book in this hotel.. it turned out to be a worst mistake. The area was shady.. the cab driver himself was sympathetic when he dropped us off there at night! the room smelled of cigarettes, so much so that the bed, sheets all of them smelled of smoke..
and like that was not enuf, the next morning cleaning lady asks us when we were leaving if we needed service, I told her we were checking out and she goes - "is the room clean?"!!! i wonder if any of the sheets we were on were cleaned in the first place.. my good guess is no!

If you are looking to spend a night after a day's sight seeing and traveling do not step you foot here.do me a favor please!

“Stay Away”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed March 13, 2010

Do not stay here. Yes, the room was clean and recently renovated BUT............ things were falling apart in the room. The wires were hanging out of wall and sink handle broke off. Worst of all, there were prostitutes. This is not a family location. A resident even commented on this hotel being known for prostitutes and drugs. To top it off it was very noisy, you could hear a train all night and it is in the warehouse district so you could hear semis all night. This was a scary place, it is not safe. If you like drugs, prostitutes, and noise this is your kind of place. I would tell everyone I know, not to go there. STAY AWAY!

“Avoid at all costs”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed December 17, 2009

Hard to find - lousy signage off New York Avenue (and nowhere near convention center)
Way overpriced ~ $100 for the night
Credit card reader didn't work (and wouldn't take American Express if it had) - had to go across street (in industrial Washington) to use ATM
TV didn't have best reception - no channel guide
Had to use cell phone to call office (raucous party above us at 2 am) because phone didn't work
