Set in Foggy Bottom, a 16-minute walk from Phillips Collection, 2 km from the White House, and 2 km from the Lincoln Memorial. The Metro station is a 7-minute walk away.
The property is in a safe, walkable neighborhood with easy access to Georgetown (2 blocks), downtown DC, and the National Mall. Foggy Bottom Metro station provides direct lines across the city and to Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (11 km). A Trader Joe's supermarket is directly across the street, and numerous restaurants including Blue Duck Tavern and 51st State Tavern are within a 5-minute walk. Bus stops are also nearby, making car-free exploration straightforward. Guests arriving by car should note that the hotel's private parking is limited and fills quickly; nearby paid lots are available.

Accommodation

Air-conditioned studio and one-bedroom apartments with private bathrooms, full kitchens, separate living areas, work desks, flat-screen TVs, and tea/coffee makers.
Units range from studios with one or two beds to one-bedroom apartments with a separate bedroom, kitchen, and living room. All have a private bathroom with a walk-in shower (wheelchair-accessible units with roll-in shower are available). While the rooms are spacious and functional, the furnishings and décor are dated; carpets and kitchen cabinetry show wear. Some units have a private patio. The sofa beds are very thin and uncomfortable - better used as seating. Higher floors offer good views. Air conditioning is provided but operates on a central heating/cooling system that may limit individual temperature control. Closets include extra blankets and a fan for comfort.

Wellness and Leisure

Free fitness centre and shared lounge/TV area. An ice-skating rink is nearby.
The fitness centre is basic but functional, with cardio and strength equipment. The shared lounge offers a space to relax or meet others. For outdoor leisure, an ice-skating rink is within walking distance, and Georgetown's waterfront is a 15-minute walk away. There is no pool or spa on site.
