• Staff was simply outstanding. They were extremely attentive and prompt about everything.
• Rooms were slightly small for a family but this was really ok. Great hotel!

“Wow! We were really happy with this hotel. A 2.5 star rating is kinda low. I loved the ambiance, location, and complimentary breakfast! The hotel was also in a great location to everything. We would definitely stay again.”

• Loved the kitchenette, beautiful view and central location
• The continental breakfast was limited and not too tasty

“I'd highly recommend the hotel to anyone travelling to DC. The staff was exceedingly helpful and friendly, even though we paying what amounted to pennies since we got the room so cheaply through Priceline. Though it was relatively large and comprised two buildings, it was not a chain and it had more character and charm than a large, prefab hotel. We had a beautiful corner room with views of the city and residential areas. The room wasn't large, but it was spacious and comfortable and the kitchenete was such a nice feature. The bed was very comfortable and we had a very nice stay overall.”

• Great location, clean, nicely furnished, free continental breakfast, kitchenette with full size refrigerator, stove & microwave.
• Street parking was a hassle. We got a $30 parking ticket.

“This hotel had a great location a couple blocks from the Capitol. We were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go, and the Metro was just a block away. It was nicely furnished, clean, and included a convenient kitchenette. It also had a free continental breakfast, great for a quick bite before setting off for the day. On the negative side, parking was an issue. There was a $35. charge per day for their small lot (if available), and otherwise, you were left to find parking on the street. We received a $30 parking ticket, because you could only park on certain sides of the street on certain days and between certain hours.”

• Location, cost, cleanliness.

“This was a very comfortable hotel in a perfect location. A few blocks from the Capitol, across from LOC, near Metro I will stay here again and again. Clean, great location, reasonable, comfortable.”

• It was close to a Metro station, the king size bed was great and it was also in a safe area.
• They did not have any wine glasses in the room.

“I would highly recommend this hotel as the rooms were a great size, the king size beds were very comfy and the area felt safe, it was very central and it was only 1 block away from a metro station.”

• Employee checking me in, while on the phone.

• Boutique style hotel.
• Accounting staff had trouble getting the bill right.

“Nice space but the accounting people charged my credit card for the entire bill and had a difficult time straightening things out. Other than that everything was very nice. Close to Metro, making it convenient to the entire city.”

• The staff was very polite and helpful.
• Strong paint smell in stairwell.

“Excellent location! The hotel is about a block away from the Capitol South Metro stop, and a couple of blocks away from the Capitol Building. My boyfriend and I were able to walk the entire mall and make it back to the hotel without having to worry about getting lost. Also, there were several restaurants and banks on our block. The location is perfect for seeing all of the monuments, White House, etc. We took the Chinatown bus from New York City, to Chinatown in D.C. The Metro station was also only a few blocks away from the bus stop along a street lined with restaurants. They are still doing construction, beginning at about 9:30-10 a.m., but you can't beat the price and location.”

• Good location.
• Drilling walls at 615 am, non English-speaking and rude staff.

“This hotel was run sloppily, staff was rude and unhelpful. A work crew began drilling holes in the walls beneath us at 615 in the morning. They shut the water off to the room at 8 a.m. and didn't turn it on again until 5 p.m. There was no on-site parking, which would have been good to know beforehand. I will never visit this dump again.”

• Convenient location. Staff helped to accommodate our needs.
• Annex building desperately needs renovation; paint peeling, old and musty.

“Until the new owners of the Capitol Hill Suites make their promised $6 million renovations, I won't be back. While I knew it was a converted apartment complex, I was not expecting a musty smell in the "annex" (which was about 2/3 of the rooms). Peeling paint, bathroom fixtures not fully attached, and a very old and tired rollaway mattress were not what I was expecting. I was not expecting a continental breakfast, which was not quite up-to-par for a "suite" hotel (think Hampton Inn style) and the breakfast room was simply a large open space with folding tables and chairs.”

• Very good overall.
• Air conditioning was not connected part of the time.

“This hotel served our purpose very well. I attended a professional meeting in D.C. My wife accompanied. We did some sightseeing. They have central heating/air-conditioning which needs replacement with individual room control. Part of the time the air conditioning had not yet been turned on for the warm season.”

• It had a mini kitchen and was an excellent location for us.
• The lobby door was supposed to lock but it never did.

“Friendly staff, excellent location close to capitol hill. Accommodations were clean, acceptable, if not a bit run down.”

• Good location.
• Difficulties to park your car. The price of the parking in the hotel is too expensive.

“Old hotel with a good location, problem to park your car. Free breakfast.”

• Location, location, location.
• Room had no heat and no electricity.

“I got to my hotel room around 11 pm and discovered that my room had no heat. Trust me when I say the temperature in my room was only marginally better than the freezing temperature outside. So I called the front desk only to be informed that they were sold out and didn't have another room to put me in. They told me to try switching the thermostat from 'heat' at 90 degrees to 'cold' at 60 degrees. 'I know that sounds strange,' the gal at the front desk deadpanned, 'but it just might work.¿ it didn¿t.¿ sorry, the only thing we can do is bring you a couple of extra blankets and then switch you to another room tomorrow,' the clerk informed me. Dead tired and just wanting to go to bed, I reluctantly agreed. Between the times I hung up the phone and the housekeeper arrived with my extra blankets, all the electricity went out in the room. The woman went back downstairs to 'see what she could do.¿ what she did was come back upstairs with a flashlight to see if she could simply reset the circuit breaker which controls the electricity in the room. No dice. So, with a straight face and in all seriousness she asked if she could just leave me the flashlight for the rest of the night. That, I informed her, wasn't an option. So she went back downstairs and made a few phone calls, to a manager I suppose, and called back to say they were moving me to another room that was being held for someone else and would simply put that person up in another hotel when he arrived. Fine. In my new-and-improved room the heat and electricity were working but not the TV remote control. Nor would the toilet flush. But those inconveniences I could live with, at least for the rest of the night since I was turning in anyway.”

“Overall this is a boutique hotel in the heart of Washington D.C. offering a comfortable stay at a strategic location. The neighborhood is safe and hotel staff friendly.”

• Great location.
• The room was freezing.

“The hotel was located perfectly behind Capitol Hill. The staff was friendly and the room was spacious. But the heat was still turned off, and they didn't have any small personal heaters to provide guests who might be cold. If they know that they don't turn on the building heat until November, at least be prepared to accommodate those who are freezing to death and catching colds in the hotel.”
