Nice look but won't return based on heat issues
For a new hotel, I was very disappointed in how poorly insulated the lobby space was. It was absolutely freezing and everyone was wearing their winter coats shivering as they waited for their ride. I also think it's a joke to charge $30 in a "destination fee". Nothing about the cold lobby space says destination. The rooms were cute and clean. However you couldn't cool your room. Those spaces were ridiculously hot, with a thermostat set to 63, I never got the room below 74.

Stellar staff, comfortable new hotel in DC
I rarely write hotel reviews, but this one was memorable. Their French bistro is fantastic. The bed was comfortable and the room was thoughtfully furnished. The gym had more amenities than I've typically seen. Would definitely stay here again.
