Luray Holidays from £785

Good location, friendly staff, great breakfast, clean and quiet rooms, best sleep in a week

The hotel is a one-minute walk from Dupont Circle station. I had not ridden the DC metro in 20+ years and Cortez the DOO walked me through the lines and stations with a map. Not only friendly but thoroughly knowledgeable of the area and helpful, 10/10 customer service. There is a stunning restaurant Casamara in the hotel which has a simple, well-executed menu. Again, customer service was outstanding in the restaurant. There is also a rooftop bar. Parking is valet. Control room service or even locking/unlocking your door with a private link to your mobile.

The apartment was in a great location and very clean. However, the bed was horrible. It creaked every time you moved and our air conditioning went out and they had to bring us a fan

The room with a queen bed we stayed in was by far the smallest hotel room we've ever stayed in. A bigger person would not have been able to fit between the foot of the bed and the opposite wall (where the TV is mounted), in order to move from the side of the room with the door and bathroom to the side with the desk and most readily accessible outlets. The place was clean, but our room was located on the "1st" floor, which is sub street level (and below the lobby) and smelled musty. The room itself actually smelled damp. We considered asking for a different room, but the schedule for the convention we were in town for was tight, so we just dealt with it for the hours we were in the room to sleep. The food at the restaurant is good, the staff is very polite, and I appreciate that they highlight the automatic gratuity on the check. I found it a little strange that, though they walk by the tables frequently, you essentially have to flag someone down to ask for the check, a to go box, etc. No one ever even stopped in to check on my meal or ask if I wanted water.

Everything was great
