Hotels in Ivy City / Gallaudet, Washington D.C.

first off, i booked a king room but was given 2 queen beds instead, they said you don’t always get that when you book through a 3rd party because they do not know what rooms are actually available, second, i requested that my room be cleaned everyday that i stayed, but was not, i had to go downstairs to ask for new towels 2 nights in a row, on the 3rd night i finally asked the front desk and they showed me a small sign that said they do not clean until your 4th day of stay, they can do a quick refresh if you ask before 9pm the night before, lastly, i was charged $41.73 on top of what i paid to Trip.com, i called to ask about it a few days after my trip when i saw it on my credit card, they said it was an amenities charge for each of the days i stayed, whaat? the only amenity i used was the elevator, never have i ever been charged for anything other than the price of the hotel, needless to say i will not be staying here again and will not recommend it to anyone

we arrived around 10am and were fortunate enough to be allowed early check-in. desk guy was nice, and was able to speak english. we needed the rest after a grueling red-eye. i was unaware of how far out the place was from most of what we were there to see. this resulted in spending enough money on Lyft to afford a ”swankier” place further into the city. my bad. after a brief rest, we met some family and walked around alot. the new target down the block closes at 9, so when we got back to the room around 930pm, we were unable to get supplies for the room, & had to stop at a gas station to get a few things. this is NOT a neighborhood to go walking at night. we were approached a few times, but never threatened, still didnt feel comfortable on the street. the room itself was reasonably clean, & there were no bugs that i could see. beds were firm, and there were mostly feather pillows. 3 per bed. there were multiple ”dings” in the place...beginning with the corners, the walls, and at least 2 pretty serious marks on the tub that had broken the enamel off. a fair bit of the caulking was pulled loose from both the tub and the wall. i was dissapointed to see the back of the dressing vanity was raw plywood. didnt expect that. there was a decent armoire for hanging clothes, with storage cubbies on the side. to the left of that was a reasobly large dresser with enough drawer space to handle what we had brought. immediately above the dresser was a huge flatscreen tv that, while impressive, was far to big for the space. after a bit, we figured out the remote. left of the dresser/tv was a desk & chair. under the right side of which was a 3-legged refrigerator with platic top that kept coming off. above that there was a microwave that proved useful, on top of which was a single cup coffee maker that worked nicely for tea. the furniture overall, seemed repurposed from another motel. most of it didnt match, and looked pretty used. the floor was reasonably clean

1) Called DC Convention Center Motel 6 despite beIng nowhere near DC Convention Center. You WILL get lost trying to find it. 2) Advertises as having free, high-speed internet—which was pleasing as I expected to have quite a bit of down time in the room in which to get work done. The internet connection was nonexistent—it didn’t maintain for more than 90 seconds at a time for the entire two days I’ve been here. Wasn’t able to do any work whatsoever. 3) Room had clearly not been cleaned prior to my arrival—there was still feces on the toilet bowl when I first used it. Also, whenever the toilet flushes, there is a incredibly loud, sustained noise for 2-3 min after that I’m shocked didn’t wake any other guests. 4) There’s a flat screen tv but no tv remote. 5) Office attendant barely acknowledged me and didn’t bother to tell me roughly where my room was—just expected me to look until I found it. I didn’t spend a lot, so I suppose one gets what one pays for, but I’ve stayed in hostels in the city for half this price and experienced far better quality.

The location was a bit ambiguous, but the shuttle was a good way to get around, and I was happy not only for breakfast, but also for happy hour in the evening. The staff were very friendly and the room was large.

Stayed in Washington for two nights and stayed at this hotel. There is a shuttle bus from Union Station to the hotel, but it is a long time to go to the hotel from the station, so we didn't sit back to the hotel's shuttle bus. However, it is still possible to sit out from the hotel. The tip is given depending on the situation. We have given it a few times, but it has not been given. If you go to the hotel to take the red line subway, get off at the noma station and use the Google map to navigate back. There are not many people passing by. Speaking of hotel facilities, it is still very good. There is 24h coffee on the first floor and there will be cookies or fruit. The breakfast variety is also good. The bed linen in the room is very good, and the shower gel is exposed to the body. There is a dryer on the third floor of the opposite home suit, which can also be accessed with the inn room card. There is a microwave in the room, of course, the coffee machine is also a must. Apart from the location is not convenient, the rest are very good.

Facilities: There is no elevator, but it is a 2-story staircase. The guy at the front desk was very good and helped carry the luggage to the 2nd floor. In addition, the hotel does not have toiletries and slippers. Hygienic: The room is still clean, but a bit old. Environment: The hotel is located on the side of the road and there is car noise. Service: Hotels in the United States have no service, even if they do not clean, they should keep them clean. Bath towels will be changed.

The first room had a very noisy fan. I was moved to another room which was much quieter. I noticed that there were several small issues with the room and relayed them to the front desk, where a manager (Keith) overheard me and said he would look into it. Nothing happened to correct it during the entire stay, not a note to say how or if it would be corrected. The issue was a ring of paint or epoxy in the bathtub, something that should have been cleaned up at the time of painting. The second issue was the very poor arrangement of lighting in the room. Lamps were confined to small areas, there was no overhead light and the bathroom was either overlit or underlit, while the closet area was dark unless it was daylight. Afterwards I noticed that there large holes in the sheer curtains in the room. Not tragic, but not in keeping with the tenor and tone of a Marriott Bonvoy. In the lobby there was only an ADA service elevator to go from the street to the lobby level. It was self operated, no instructions, no indication lights on either level and a bit noisy.

We chose the Hilton because of its location at DuPont Circle and proximity to the metro. It was perfect. Very clean and excellent service. We had a corner room with large windows and a nice view. We weren’t able to check in early and still have our chosen room but we left our luggage with the bell captain, parked and went off to explore on foot for awhile, taking the advice from a helpful front desk clerk for a nice place for lunch close by. Everything was close by. It worked out perfectly. The price of the hotel was excellent too which offset the cost of parking ($56/day) in the garage below where the car stayed for the whole trip. It was very easy to park and get back inside. The restaurants looked lovely but we didn’t eat there. There were just too many local choices and we were out walking most of the day. The bell captain was helpful in getting us a cab one cold evening when my Uber app was be working well. He went outside in the cold until he was able to hail one for us (comparable in price to the Uber we would’ve taken) Lovely stay. Highly recommend.

The location of the shop is not far from the Red Line subway Dupont station. There are small restaurants and bookstores next to the street. The hotel facilities are quite new and clean; the bedding is soft; the bathroom supplies daily in the room; the only thing that needs attention is the hot water and the conversion socket Fortunately, every morning there is hot coffee and water in the lobby, and newspapers are provided.

What an absolutely amazing stay in the nations capital. My room was incredibly clean and it was even quiet, considering that there was a rooftop bar with live music. I slept well. And, I’m really grateful that they are in such close proximity to a Walgreens, which is right on the corner. I travel often and often forget a thing or two or just need simple things like bottles of water (I drink half a gallon to a gallon per day). But I want to give a big huge shout out to the staff particularly Jessica, Michael and Chris. I was traveling with someone with dementia. We were in town for the Alzheimer’s Association ball. And, they truly treated my travel companion with kid gloves! The staff were considerate to her needs and patient with her every step of the way. I even accidentally left my jacket in the hotel room trying to take care of my friend and Jessica call me later on that day to let me know that she found it and that she would personally ship it out. This jacket is very personal and special to me and has quite a bit of sentimental value so I’m so incredibly grateful that I didn’t lose it and that it’s on the way back to me. This was a great stay, a great hotel! You feel safe in a big city and the café downstairs has some of the best coffee I’ve ever had in my life!
