Fine for the price

The place is fine if you just plan on sleeping there. The faucet for the shower almost came off in my hand this morning.

Morris, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very clean, comfortable, and modern decor. It was a great deal, very reasonable price for DC. It could use more luggage storage space, but manager is working on that and was very helpful to offer me alternatives. Highly recommended.
Gary, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

No outlets, light didn’t work, bathroom door didn’t close all the way, bed leaned and sank in

8/10 Very good

One night stay

Great stay for a single night. A bit of trouble to start the stay as there were problems with the room door code. Initially nobody responded to the messaging system but I found the managers number on a business card in the lobby and was able to reach him there. He arrived very shortly after to help it took two more codes to try before finally getting in. The room was cozy and fit my needs. The bathroom door handle was busted and the tv had some dead pixel lines. There is some fridges in the lobby for your storage. Overall I enjoyed my stay and would consider coming again.
Jesse, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The area was in a nice, convenient, walkable area of the city. I wasn't able to contact the property ahead of time, but they were very kind and helpful upon my arrival.

Pre-Check in Communication Bad, room fine

The hotel was fine. Great location. Clean. Check was fine. Small room and bath in the basement. Perfectly fine budget accommodations. Getting in touch with the property before arrival was nearly impossible. Phone on website rang busy. No one answered email.
wendy, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

No A/C and cockroaches

The room was the smallest ever I've stayed in. The A/C didn't cool and there were cockroaches in the room. Wont be back. BE AWARE YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR....

Robert, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

Zero Communication- couldn't enter the property

They do not pick up the phone. They do not respond to any communication. I am pretty convinced there are no humans working for Found by Embassy (formerly Sonder by Marriott) I don’t know what kind of hotel has no check in clerk, mandates the presentation of the credit card used for booking (which on a business trip may be not possible), tells you via the booking app that if you need assistance you must wait until they send check-in instructions, never sends the check in instructions, and when you try any number of means to communicate, they Simply Do Not Answer the Phone and Do Not Even Respond to the Booking Agent! Just don’t bother with this property if you are a business traveler. Just book at a regular hotel. We did not use the booking and are still trying to hear back about a refund.
Kim, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

room wad dirty
Khatia, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

The stall shower did not work and the bathroom sink had barely any water flow. I also can not get any kind of contact information to discuss this with them. A dump. Don’t stay here.
