Child at GW- great option for hotel
Child at GWU. Second time here. Small hotel, great location (close to Mall and Georgetown in nice area). Pretty hotel, clean. Bathroom paint bubbled but I think bc small and likely too much condensation from shower. Personally prefer to larger chains in area. Easier to get in and out

Weekend Stay
2nd time staying here. I booked through Hotels.com..I honestly feel like I would get a better room location if booked with the hotel directly. My first room was nice but the view was the worst, all pipes and building mechanisms. This time I got a room on the 1st floor and my view was a brick wall. I didnt ask to be switched, I just dealt with it.The front desk staff was very nice and helpful.

A stay that wasn't
The property had a major issue and cancelled my reservation. The issue occurred hours before I arrived however I was not notified that I wouldn't be able to stay at the hotel until I arrived. I was forced to wander the streets at midnight looking for another hotel with immediate availability. I had to bill a very expensive room to my employer and now have to submit a detailed explanation for why I exceeded my travel budget to my manager. This could have been avoided if the hotel had communicated the issue earlier in the day.
