We had a really lovely stay at Oakwood Suites! It’s a beautiful building right on DuPont Circle, which was very centrally located to everything we wanted to do during our weekend in DC. Our room was clean and we really could not beat the price. Our favorite part of the hotel was the common area and balcony on the second floor. We were able to sit outside overlooking DuPont circle and share a bottle of wine (the staff were super nice and helpful - they opened the balcony for us and pointed us to the kitchen in the common area for cups; the bartender kindly lent me his wine opener as well).
I did knock off a star for accuracy just because Oakwood changed my reservation a few days before arrival - they said they had an AC issue in the room I had originally booked and had to move me from a suite to a studio. They were very helpful through this process and provided me with pictures of the new room to help me decide if I wanted the swap; they also promptly provided a refund of the price difference between suite and studio. Overall the studio was still very nice and large enough for our needs; it didn’t negatively impact our stay.
We highly recommend Oakwood Suited and would definitely return the next time we are in DC!
