I have stayed in many hotels in the neighborhood of the Dupont Circle, and this one is the best for my preference, which is for efficiency and basic comfort, rather than luxury. It is a relatively new hotel, and most of the facility is rented as apartments for a short stay, which means that the social spaces are comfortable, and the atmosphere is relaxed and friendly. The building looks old-fashioned from the outside, but a new modern annex is hidden behind, so the rooms do not have any view, but they are quiet and perfectly equipped with kitchen utensils. The bed was great even for an uneasy sleep after the long flight, the room was very clean, and the bathroom was spacey and well provided with towels and toiletries. I am definitely going to stay in this hotel again in the near future.
