The hotel is very trendy and has stylish shared spaces. The rooms are as shown but lack a few basic amenities you may be used to in other hotels. The staff is nice and welcoming so I think if you did need anything your room didn’t have, they would be happy to help. Location is great for exploring the union market area but little bit a ways from the DC center so you will either have to uber or walk 15 minutes to the nearest subway station.
They have unique offerings like a cinema room, rooftop access, yoga room, and guest welcome drinks. During my stay there was a live DJ at night. My only hiccup was that during that time I tried to get snacks at midnight in the lobby and had some party attendees (not sure if they were hotel guests) make me feel like I was in there way despite being a hotel guest. And since the event was split between the lobby and roof, the elevators were very full. I think if those events are your kind of scene, it’s a great feature but if not, it can be uncomfortable.
Overall it’s good for the price I paid. I think there is a lot of potential to be a one of a kind place to stay with unique amenities but for now there are aspects that shine and others that make the experience not as smooth as standard hotel or even other airbnb experiences.
