Fairly priced stay in Washington. Property was in close proximity to the metro line which is helpful. Somewhat dated fittings but everything is very clean and well presented.

Great location!
This hotel is located in the heart of downtown DC with easy access to the metro. I thought the room was a bit tired and small but for the price—it could not be beat

This hotel is very old, and our room was pretty dirty (there was black mold all over the shower but they cleaned it upon request). However, it's in a great location.

Very nice property, helpful staff, privacy and cleanliness. We really liked the location, beautiful building and quiet atmosphere. No-frills means more affordable! We highly recommend the Architect if you're fine with a less than luxurious mattress and pillows. Will definitely stay there again

Small, but comfortable and clean
The room was much smaller than I'm used to, but it was very clean and the bed was very comfortable. Good location. Walking distance to many attractions and close to bus stops if you're not a walker.
