“Avoid this hotel!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed November 20, 2012

3 a.m. - Woke uncomfortably due to extreme heat in room. Front desk said nothing could be done - they said we should open window. Window (see photo) with no screen or security opened onto kitchen exhaust and view of alley over flat roof. This was very unsafe. No relief from heat until we opened the door to the hall. No sleep was possible under these conditions! Management not on site. Desk clerk gave manager's name and encouraged a call next business day, I left message but manager never called. Multiple phone calls were never returned. Extremely inferior room (see photos) very high price. Terrible service and the management just does not care.

“Can't beat the location”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed November 19, 2012

New management, but not much has changed.
Well, fortunately, they didn't change the location! :-)

Just a few comments to add to what others have said.

o Internet is very slow, and intermittent. But it was mostly functional and it’s free.

o Bathroom is very small and has no bath tub.

o Television is high def… but the channels it gets are not.

o I was here on a Sat. night, with a window looking onto Wisconsin, and it was not noisy.

“Out of Date and Expensive....Not a Good Experience!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed November 9, 2012

The Georgetown Inn is out of date,disheveled, and very expensive. The owners have run the numbers and decided that they can slide by without updating the hotel in any manner simply because of its outstanding location in the middle of Georgetown. I paid $339/night for an 'executive suite' that had old carpeting, mismatched furniture, non-existent WIFI, a broken coffee maker, and a bathroom that had not been updated since the Carter administration.

The staff was pleasant enough, but then again, I really didn't need anything from them other than to process my credit card and hand me my room key.

With so many hotel options in Washington, D.C, please do yourself a favor and book somewhere else. If the owners of this hotel want to let their hotel rot and decay, that is their prerogative, just don't make the same mistake I did by booking there hoping for a room that is commensurate with the high room rate.

Room Tip: If you do stay here, do not pay extra for an 'executive suite'.

“Great find at a great price”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 6, 2012

I stayed at the Georgetown Inn while taking my daughter to Georgetown University this past August. I was looking for a reasonably-priced hotel that would have decent beds (I'm a princess about my sleep) and this hotel exceeded my expectations. There is not much in the way of a lobby but the room was nicely appointed, very clean, and the bed was extremely comfortable and had decent sheets. My only complaint was that, on the first night, we needed a rollaway bed for my daughter and it was extremely uncomfortable. Being a teenager, she can pretty much sleep on a rock, and even she complained. Other than that, I was very happy with this hotel, and would definitely stay there again. Great location too, near all of Georgetown's fun shopping and a short walk from Dean and DeLuca.
