I was in DC for business and I was basically just in and out of the hotel. This place accommodated that at a good rate and in the area I was doing business. The room was small but clean, ultimately all I needed.

Great stay close to downtown.

This was the cutest hotel. Nothing fancy. Nothing extra. But great location and no complaints from me.

Great Value Stay

We needed last minute room for one night and the Architect delivered. We appreciated that the front desk staff was on duty 24 hours. Our room was spacious and clean, if sparse but did have a closet with safe and ironing board. Location is excellent - close to Metro station, buses, plenty of restaurants, etc

Stay again for sure.

The stay was great! The pillows, however, were awful!! Only complaint at all. Too flat and thin. Staff was great. Room was clean! Shower was great!

Great for the price. Staff was very friendly and the room was as expected and clean. Very convenient location. The ONLY reason it doesn’t get the full 5 stars is the pillows are not comfortable.

Overall, not a bad stay. I was only there for about 4 nights, room was a on the smaller side but the bed was comfortable and I had an excellent view of the city from my room. Only complaint I had was that the keycard repeatedly failed to work after housekeeping left the room and I had to constantly go to the front desk to get it sorted. Not a bad spot, would stay again.
