Mike's Place is located in a very convenient location. It served it's purpose in providing a place to sleep. The room was clean and comfortable. You must provide your own entertainment if you plan on staying in the room. But if you're like me and wanted to experience DC, you'll have no problem getting out and exploring. Even if you don't want to go far, the Bravo Bar is right outside the door. Walking distance to Howard University, U St. entertainment, and 14th St shopping.
