Silver Lake

Excellent staff, great location. And they hooked us up with an upgrade

The staff, the amenities and the room were excellent! 10/10 on everything. I travel a great deal and this was one of the best hotels I’ve stayed in for overall experience.

The hotel overall is very good, good value for the money. Good location for tourists. In terms of the interior environment (lobby etc.), it has a unique blend of that DC-common 'majestic design' style, mixed with contemporary fun vibe. The staff are friendly and helpful. I was lucky enough to get an early check in 9am-ish. They gave me a few vouchers that I could use in their Fireclay restaurant. The room is quite spacious. It has a safe (I think that was not mentioned in the list of amenities). They have complimentary bottled water. USB and USB-C charging ports around bedside. Nespresso machine (no tea). Personally I tend to like firm mattress, and the bed here is comfortable for me. There were a few minor drawbacks, mostly around the washing/bathroom area. There are very few provisions for hanging things (toiletries, towels etc). Would be nice to have a trash bin below the sink. Also the water can easily spilll out in the shower area, potentially making a mess in the bathroom floor. The hairdryer isn't great. Also - and this probably isn't the hotel's fault - there is a rather loud ice cream truck with an active exhaust stationed around the corner between 15th St and Pennsylvania Ave.
