Staff was wonderful, super friendly and helpful. Room clean and spacious, good breakfast. Lots of restaurants nearby and very walkable area. Metro is about 15min walk. Only little thing is that the street we faced with our room can be a bit noisy when trucks or loud cars drive by.

Clean room, great staff, great location. Nice breakfast options. Hotel gym was sort of limited. Patio overlooking the street was noisy and got poor light, did not use. Overall a good stay and would stay again, despite my limited complaints again.
