This hotel has its perks, such as a dedicated staff that really goes the extra mile and a convenient location right above the Metro. However, the overall condition of the rooms needs improvement, and the internet service was frustratingly slow. The hotel offers value for families with its amenities and pet-friendly policy, but it's clear that some updates are overdue.

Rooms
5.0
The rooms felt quite outdated, with worn wallpaper and old blackout shades that were full of holes. They seem to be in need of renovations.
Service
7.0
The staff were definitely nice and accommodating, but there were moments where better communication could have improved my experience.
Location
9.0
The hotel is situated right above a Metro station, making it super convenient for getting to various attractions around the city.
Dining
6.0
While there was a decent breakfast option available, it could be better, and some meals are not included in the rate, which is a little disappointing.
Facilities
6.0
The hotel offers a reasonable amount of facilities, but some areas could use a refresh to enhance the overall experience.
