"This well-placed hotel offers great value within walking distance of Georgetown and Dupont Circle." Full review

Request a room on the eighth or ninth floor for views of Georgetown and beyond; request an "executive corner suite" for a slightly larger unit.
"It may leave little to the imagination, but this outpost of the chain does a fine job with those basics, plus the location between Georgetown and Dupont Circle is handy."
"Well-furnished rooms with good work areas and a separate living room for meetings or relaxing."
"Opened in 1987 on the eastern edge of Georgetown, this familiar midrange franchise ticks with the efficiency of a well-wound metronome." Full review
"All accommodations at this pleasant and convenient hotel within walking distance of Georgetown and Dupont Circle have a living room and bedroom." Full review
"Reasonably priced suites make this a good choice for families and business travellers who need room to spread out. Complimentary breakfast is cooked to order, and there’s a daily cocktail reception." Full review
