Great location, ok price, but the rooms are like small cruise ship cabins! I wouldn't plan a stay over a couple of nights unless you are into claustrophobia.

A quiet area but close to the capitol and all museums. CitizenM concept fits perfectly for business trips with nice lounge area to work in. Very nice breakfast and bar food too.

The staff are professional and friendly. In particular, Whitney was a huge help with securing an Uber for me despite all of the road closures. I needed to get to my start point to have the honor of running in the final segment of Relay for America. Whitney went way above and beyond. Outstanding.

Overall nice clean place with comfortable bed that was close to Washington Mall. Bed was little low to floor. Fridge/ cooler in drawer was questionable but did it's job. Shower curtain was not low to floor and allowed excess water to escape the uniquely designed bathroom.

Small rooms, not great for those traveling with others if they aren’t comfortable sleeping in the same bed and using the same bathroom. Location is very good. Staff is great. Bar is great. iPad drives the entire room experience, including television.

8/10 Very good

The Hotel was greatly understaffed. Food and drink lines for breakfast or before dinner drinks took at least 10 minutes in line. They offered drip coffee but it was always out so had to buy the more expensive coffee. Reserved a room that had room on each side of the bed. Instead got a bed that we had to crawl over each other to use the bathroom. I will say the staff was very friendly and polite under the circumstances. Will stay again but be diligent in room choice. And not holiday weekend.
