Communication with our host was amazing, checking in with us throughout our stay by text message and making sure that we felt comfortable messaging them whenever needed. The VR BO was extremely clean, the beds were soft, pillows did feel like they could maybe be replaced (but definitely not a game changer!), very basic amenities in the kitchen but enough for what we needed (basic seasoning, condiments would have been nice like salt, pepper, oil). It was in a very walkable area and felt very safe!
this was a great choice for us (2 couples) to be in the Washington area for a long weekend. Metro a quick walk away - brought us easily from the DCA airport, to Arlington Cemetery and to the Smithsonian museums. Walkable to restaurants, bars and some shopping. Staff at front desk were all great. Amazon walk out store on the main floor (means no check out of purchases - like sodas, or essentials - just walk out). Apartment like setting - well equipped and modern kitchen, seating, good quality beds, towels. Really well done. And top floor - great hottub area; lots of small conversation seating around gas fireplaces and views for miles. Yep, would definitely stay here again.
When I arrived, I was greeted in a welcoming manner where the concierge was there to assist with a smooth check in. I through enjoyed my stay, I will definitely book to stay again. It's great for traveling Healthcare professionals.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, listing accuracy
Centrally located and a very comfortable space, perfect for 1-2 guests.
This hotel is part of the University’s student apartment building. So not a typical hotel. The “studio” is huge with many rooms.
Suggestion for improvements: install curtains; add box of tissues; change the door lock
Room was clean and was in walking distance to many restaurants and target. The pool is very small. Looks more like a jacuzzi versus a pool which is what was in the description.parking is $35.00 per night which is a fair price I think for the area.
The property is well equipped with everything for a business stay: kitchenette, washer and dryer, gym, early opening café within 50m. 15-20 min transportation from DCA airport by car. I definitely enjoyed my stay
