"Won’t Stay Again."
Overall Score3.0/ 5
I stayed on the 4th floor and the smell of weed smoking hit me every time I left my room. We even put towels on the floor below the door to keep the smell out. The sign out front clearly reads that it’s a non smoking facility. The smell sometimes met us when we walked thru the front door so there’s no way the front desk wasn’t aware of what was happening. There needs to be more non smoking signs posted in the elevator, in the room and the hallway. We were given the option of changing rooms because the hot water did not work in the tub/shower but was scalding hot in the sink. After staying for two nights, we asked for our room to be cleaned while we were out but came back to an unclean room. The second room was much better for the remainder of our stay.The staff was not very friendly either. In fact, the only time I even saw a smile was on our last night while asking for clean wash clothes.

"Extremely Disappointed"
Overall Score1.0/ 5
I didn’t get to enjoy my stay because the agent I booked with booked my room in Washington DC not Vancouver Washington. I called the hotel in DC asking to be cancelled and to be refunded, I’ve emailed customer service several times with no response and I’ve called a dozen times trying to resolve this and to get a full refund!

"Great value for money."
Overall Score4.0/ 5
Location is within walking distance of the National Mall. The room interior was much nicer than I was expecting. The double queen bed room was a bit small though. There wasn't much room for luggage. That said the bathroom was well maintained and clean. There was plenty of warm water and the pressure was great. The breakfast was delicious. Would definitely stay here again if visiting DC.

"Great location with very nice employees"
Overall Score5.0/ 5
Super location as all the employees were very nice. Breakfast was great and slightly different each day. Rooms may not be five star, but were still very nice and the staff again was absolutely the best. Do not hesitate to stay at this location. It's a great stay.
