Fantastic !
I’m not a review writer, but I read all the reviews before I book a hotel so why not share?!?! We stayed in a room with a king size bed on the 8th floor . It was clean , the bed was comfy, it was spacious (enough for 3 days) and super cool .. had a “vibe”. Like any city , you will hear the sirens of police/ambulance in the middle of the night but as a light sleeper it truly wasn’t bad. There is a coffee shop with baked goods and breakfast attached to the hotel with an entrance from the lobby. There’s also a resturant. Sadly, we did not try the restaurant but the coffee at coffee shop was great ! This hotel also has a rooftop bar and on Fridays and Saturdays it gets busy and fun with great music. The location depending on what you want to do was perfect for us. It’s walking distance to many things but not the “nightlife” streets . We road bikes everywhere . We used the Lyft app to rent bikes (capital bikes)to get around the city. Those were SUPER easy to use! There’s a docking station about a 3 min walk from the Eaton. Hope this helped !

Very good
Loved the in-room record player, the fridge, the steamer
A kettle or nespresso machine would have been nice, the steamer was pretty dirty

Great value, vibe, and location.
The cultural and inclusive vibe. The room was very comfortable. Simone, the front-desk person at check-in, was great.
The room had a view of the roof-top airconditioning units. The phonograph stereo in the room was broken, the left channel was not working. Our plans conflicted with the scheduled spa events.

My favourite North American hotel experience ever.
This is more than a hotel. It's an experience. The Allegory speakeasy is now my favourite bar in the world. The rooftop bar is full of light and is beautiful. The rooms are cozy. Michel's has great food!
The coffee at Baker's Daughter could be better. Had to go down the street to Paul bakery cafe for good coffee.

Like visiting a DC museum and great dining spot rolled into one!
The dining options, library room,art and culture of the hotel
Record player in room should be de emphasized until they work well.

Great stay at a great location!
It was a great stay. Very clean and all the neccessary amenties for my stay. Lieked the record player plus the alternative to use the sound system to play my own music via blutooth. Location was great! The breakfast burritos in the litte cafe were excellent! Would definitely recommend the hotel.
I was missing some more coat hangers or hooks to hang towles on to for drying in the bathroom. The lamp over the little table was hanging in an awkward spot / height. Always hit it when getting up from the little couch.

I would totally stay here again
Great location, decor and vibe
Coffee machines in the rooms should be standard. If you want one you need to request one and are given limited amount of coffee

Totally recommend!
This was a great boutique hotel. Staff friendly and helpful. Location was AWESOME - very convenient for multiple Metro stops! I felt safe walking back to hotel at night. Room and bed was comfortable (bathroom on the smallish size if sharing with travel partner). Room / hall was quiet at night. Cafe was yummy (didn’t try the restaurant) roof top bar/patio would be awesome in warmer weather!
Nothing!

Fab hotel in a great location
Fantastic location within a short walk from all the major political sights of interest. It was good to have the option of using the workspace.

Fantastic stay
Love the layout of the room, which was comfortable for our family of 5. Had a vibe that did not feel like a traditional hotel.
Could have had better pillows. Were not terrible but great pillows lead to better sleeping

excellent
nice to have coffee available in the morning at the desk.
the only potential improvement is..... The water bubbler did not have water in the workout room.

Funky, functional hotel with warm staff and business grade accommodations
This is my new favorite DC hotel. Its commitment to social justice and to being LGBTQ friendly feels real not like a marketing gimmick. It’s eclectic and comfortable but doesn’t feel cheap or shoddy. The staff are fantastic and seem genuinely happy to help. The location is way and safe and the rates are always reasonable. It’s not fancy but full functional for a work trip with decent work spaces in the larger study rooms
I haven’t stayed in a cabin room, I don’t think I would like them.
