Disappointed
Front lobby makes an impressive presentation. Once upstairs to the rooms it becomes very dismal. The hallways to the rooms have a damp, musty odor that did not go away in my 5 day stay, the baseboard in the hall was old, dirty, weathered & wallpaper is dreary & needs attention. Rooms have old chipped furniture & television was an older box type, remote did not work. Internet access was $11 a night!!!!!!! On a positive note, beds are exceptionally comfy with quality linens. For the price they charge I would think they would seriously consider updating out of the 80s .

Overnight Family Stay in DC
Nice accommodations and very conveniently located! The kids loved the pool. I wasn't expecting the additional and significant cost for parking.

Pros and Cons
L'enfant plaza was just ok. The location of the hotel was good for walking over to the Cherry Blossoms, but everything else was disappointing. When we first checked in we requested a king size bed and they gave us 2 double beds. They changed our room. Then when we got to our hotel room it sounded like the room next to us was having a party with both parents and screaming kids at 11pm. We asked the front desk if we could change our room 3 times and they said that they would send security the quiet down. The next morning we eat breakfast in the hotel and the waiter did not get our order till 10 mins later and the person giving us our drink did not speak any English. I asked her for the check and she did not understand. I was also surprised that the hotel did not inform me about the double Decker tour bus. They have stop right outside of the hotel and I didn't even know about this. They could have been more informative about the Cherry Blossom festival as well. Won’t stay here again. Better to pay more and stay somewhere else. PS: the pillows are uncomfortable

It's ok but not recomended
The location is perhaps the only merit of the hotel. 10 to 20 min walk to the mall. There is also a path to the Metro in the hotel. Beyond that the hotel is no more than a mediocre one. I would not say staff there friendly. The furnitures in the room are old.
