Loud housekeepers!!! bang really hard and run up and down the steps really hard...they try to wake up the guest so they can hurry up and have the rooms clean by 8am but check out time is not til 12

I can't fret too much... After a futile attempt to overnight elsewhere, The Windsor was right on time as far a being available. I only wish they had elevator access for one of my friends that came along. O yeah, one other thing... The A/C works quite well. This was my second time staying there and I would do it again.

Overall for the price and location it was a great hotel! Would recommend to others. Only problem was room was a bit small, and were located above washing machines. But staff very friendly and helpful.

The stay was alright. The size of the room was very small.

My stay was horrible, no customer services because everyone you talk to have no answer even those that have answer were rude and don't care about you and are not prepared to assist you to make your stay pleasant. I will not lodge or recommend their hotels anywhere to other people. If you ask me, their 3.5 customer rating is too good for them as they […] should be rated below that. The hotel bathroom sink is in the bedroom between the two queen size bed. The front desk agent don't care about what you want. They wont even change our room even there were other vacant rooms.

A maintenance worker had been in the room, used the soap and hand towel then replaced the towel as if not used. Did not get my wake up call. No lid on the toilet in what was a very small bathroom with towels located just above. Price is good as is the location. Staff are friendly. Has a B and B atmosphere

The Hotel has a nice looking from the outside ,in a charming neighborhood. But as a pre-paid hotel.com client I got a tiny room with no window in the basement ... this make it the worse price/quality I ever paid for a room. If they do that for all their pre-paid client avoid the place .

If you need contact via internet, do not stay here. After many failed attempts to get a decent connection I went to the lobby. That connection is also wireless and failed to work adequately. Bottom line come here only if you do not care about a connection.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Very satisfied. Moderate price,free wifi, breakfast, clean, comfortable, location good. Close to downtown by metro and the U St. Corridor.

room was clean but at least one guy at front desk very surly. Accused us of not returning keys; no apology when he found it in his pile. Didn't find the breakfast buffet until the evening before we were checking out too early to judge contents. Would have been nice to know it was there! because there was a pathetic coffee and tea stand in main lobby […] that we thought was it. the room and attached bath were clean and housekeeping was attentive. cable was mostly in spanish and reception again unwilling to help w that. great location and decent price overrode poor reception service.

When I showed up at this hotel, they told me they had given away my room accidentally to someone who simply pointed at my name on a list of hotel guests and the gentlemen at the front desk didnt' even both to verify the person's identity. He then spent 30 minutes kicking out the people that he'd erroneously given my room to, while I sat waiting in the […] lobby and then he tried offering up the room without any maid service performed. I declined, and he then stuck me in a basement room with no windows. This is a terrrible hotel with terrible service. TRUST ME, don't stay here, not even if it's cheap. Read more

The hotel condition is good. The only complaint is that the front desk staff. When we checked in, the person who works there had long time find our reservation info, and gave us the wrong room (he gave us double room, we reserved deluxe double room). He was not warm at all when answering questions. It is also hard to understand him.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

I liked the friendliness of the staff and the nice quiet neighborhood. The location is a little inconvenient if you want to take the Metro, as the closest station is a few blocks away (not great if it's raining) and there are no attractions nearby. The rooms are pretty small and the lack of windows (other than a view of a wall across the shaft) is a […] bit claustrophobic. Read more

This quiet Inn is in an old building in nice residential area, still only 10min walk from Metro (U-street or Dupont) and even closer to Bus lines.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Friendly helpful staff. Decent breakfast area. TV did not work well. Much more of a bed and breakfast feel than hotel which was ok kf uou are prepared. Location just slightly too far from either metro station to be really convenient. Decent room rate.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

You get what you pay for. Decent hotel within walking distance of nice restaurant districts.

My daughter and I throughly enjoyed our stay at the Windsor Inn; we thought that the staff were friendly and hospitable. My daughter enjoyed the pastries for breakfast. The front desk was most helpful with answering our questions and giving helpful hints. We loved our new friend Mimi, the inn's cat. Our room was charming with an excellent view of the […] neighborhood. The Inn has a quaint homey feeling. The location of the inn was great for walking to the attractions; we could of used the vast choices of transportation, all within easy access, but we chose to walk the sights. My daughter and I both agree that we would stay there again. Read more

Windsor Inn was fine for our stay - but I know the city well and am happy to walk a lot. It is relatively close to Dupont Circle and U Street Metro. Fine for me - but not for visitors who don't like to walk. Hotel staff were nice. Wi-fi was decent. Beds were very comfortable. Breakfast was mediocre - served 7-9am, but they ran out of food by 830am.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

- Bad and noisy temperature system, difficulty in turning on the TV, a very bad TV set quality, It was a clean but cold bathroom. There was no room wi-fi. All the rest was good for the price we paid.

terrible front desk, not helpful. no assigned parking. very small room. NOT WORTH THE MONEY!

The staff was nice and helpful. The continental breakfast was good. The location was good for my purpose of being in the city. I would stay there again.

definitely not a hotel for the business traveler. no elevator, no exercise room, no business center, no effort to accommodate early arrival, "breakfast" was a few donuts and old rolls.

The accommodations were quaint and comfortable, I was surprised to learn that there is a cat that is along time resident and roams freely. As reported the parking was challenging even on the weekend.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Everything was great at Windsor Inn, except the showers. The hot water did not work well so you had a trickle of hot water coming out of the shower nozzle.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Quaint, in great condition, clean, very nice staff, nice updates. Only negative, bathroom door should be either painted or replaced. We'll definitely stay here again on our next visit.

This is a very good place to stay in D.C. The bad points are only two: the breakfast is only carbs and there is no restaurant nearby. But there are several good points, such as cleaneless, friendly staff, etc. The room is not large like the ones in the big hotels, but the mattress and the pillows are very comfortable. My big problem in any hotel, even […] the ones most expensive is pillows: usually pillows are too tall or hard. In this little hotel, the pillows are perfect. There is no elevator because the building priorly was a home with 2 floors. It's not the hotel for you if you cannot go up and down stairs, but in case you want cleaneless, fair price, comfortable pillows, and a cozy ambient, it's perfect. Read more

Offers wi-fi and breakfast. Check-in 24 hours. Took 30 seconds to check-in, 30 to check-out. Service was friendly and efficient. Room is small and no spread on bed.

Nothing fancy, but a nice old-timey hotel with friendly staff and convenient location. WiFi worked fine and the room was clean.

I'd have to sum of my review by saying AWFUL. First the front desk personnel are just plain rude. I walked in, wasn't greeted and when I approached the desk I was rudely told to have a seat b/c he was working on something else. When I got to my room I was unimpressed. The furniture was OLD. The only good thing was the bathroom which you could tell was […] recently updated. Except that if you turn on both of the lights you hear a loud noise that sounds like something is breaking inside the ceiling. The telephone in the room was sitting on the dresser and wasn't plugged into a phone outlet. So when I tried to make a call the phone was dead. I told the front desk attendant who acted as if it was no big deal. The room didn’t have an iron or an ironing board. When I finally tracked down the desk attendant, he scrounged up a travel size ironing board and a raggedy iron. The ironing board was stained. The lobby refreshments were ALWAYS empty. There were tea bags and no hot water. None of the cable channels worked. When you select a channel the screen would pop up telling me that the service needed to be upgraded to digital in order to view. I was very disappointed that I had spent so much for such a lousy hotel. And they had the nerve to have a CAT running around loose. The cat seemed better taken care of than the guest. The only good thing was that I was walking distance from a lot of places that I like to go to and I was able to park out front for free. Read more

personnel did not to know the location of the hotel on the map nor were helpful with another client who wanted to print reservation information.

I often stay at the Windsor Inn when I have business in Washington. The neighbhorhood is full of wonderful ethnic restaurants, services like drug stores, lovely residences, and vivacious students. The Inn itself is cozy and the afternoon check-in staff offers helpful advice and a warm welcome. Coming back you'll feel like you are coming home. A good […] lounge with Washington press, walking distance to the Dupont Circle subway or even K Street. The only inconvenience is parking...or rather, lack thereof...a Washington problem in any event. This Inn is best if you don't bring a car. Read more

My friend and I rented a room at the Windsor Inn for NYE. It was in a great location and the staff was friendly; however, the room itself reminded me a lot of a college dorm room. The space was cramped, walls were almost bare, paint was cracked, the heating unit and television didn't work and the walls were paper thin so we could hear the rooms next […] door and hallway noise. Our neighbor's phone alarm woke me up in the morning - that's how thin the walls are. The beds had a single sheet and thicker blanket, but no quilt or comforter. That fact, paired with the broken heating unit created a frosty atmosphere of about 60 degrees in the dead of winter. We needed a place to crash for one night so the room served its purpose; however I would never recommend this to a tourist. Read more

Being that I work in hospitality this is a horrible stay. Had to change rooms because door handle and lock to room did not work (handle almost came off in my hand). Room temp was set to 35F. Website said there was a mini fridge, there wasn't. TV was from 1999 and picture was fuzzy. Had to move the tv and fix the cords to get a picture. No parking lot […] was told "just find a spot on the street" Ended up having to park in an area where I had to move my car by 7am and then only spots open were 2 hr parking. Don't waste your time and just spend the extra cash and stay a motel. Read more

The hotel was very nice close to the metro, and other attractions. It was in the middle of other brownstones, which made it look like you were walking out of your house, rather a hotel. The only thing I didn't like was the free breakfast was over soon. We partied the nights we stayed, so of course we slept in until 10am. When we woke up to eat breakfast […] it was all gone, except for COFFEE, which was good. :) Overall I like this place, I'm from DC and I would not stay anywhere else. Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

The Windsor did not honor our confirmation of a queen size bed, put us on the fourth/top floor(walk up stairs), one double bed,small room at the back of the hotel. Night clerk was not helpful and said he had no authority to honor our reservation. Took the matter up with the morning desk person and he was very defensive and basically said that is how […] they do business. The hotel appeared to be 25% occupied on this Sunday night. Read more

The room was clean, I only stayed one night so I did'nt used any service, but breakfast was not really good. The hotel is easy to find, and close enough from downtown DC. The hotel was fine, I just think that the room was too expensive for the quality/confort that it provides.

Very convenient location near DuPont Circle and very good hotel staff. Just be aware that there is not elevator.

The Windsor is not the best-kept place, but it's got a great location, a wonderful breakfast table, and it's very comfortable. It's always been my favorite place in Washington.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The hotel was conveniently located and provided the basic services that we needed. It is clean and quiet. Had free wifi. The front desk staff are very pleasant and helpful. Rooms and bathrooms are pretty small and no frills (but we knew this ahead of time from prior reviews). Breakfast provided is extremely simple-coffee, cereal, bread, and donuts. […] It would have been nice if there was fresh fruit and perhaps yogurt. There are newspapers available in the lobby and a cute small seating area outside if the weather is nice. Read more

A real bargain for the location. The rooms were clean and adequately furnished. Staff were polite and helpful. We would return in the future.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Very old, furniture was broken, and large water stains all over the ceiling. The shower took forever to warm up. The best part of this hotel was the super sweet, and cute cat in the lobby!
