Great location for the price. The suites are perfect if you want a fridge and/or want to cook. The place is a bit worn and drab, but has everything you would need. I strongly recommend it unless you want upscale.

Awesome stay! Thanks to Regina Willett!
My husband and I enjoyed our stay at this hotel- our room was what we originally reserved via Hotel.com and the Manager Regina Willett was awesome! She was professional, helpful and ensured that all our needs were met. The staff at 2500 Penn Hotel was great! I definitely recommend this hotel if you're in DC👍

This was my 2nd stay. This time my room was very worn. Crumbs on the couch, tub/shower in bad condition. Beware the HVAC in the rooms can not be changed only on or off. Kitchen is my room was rough. Front desk help and location are the HIT for this choice. Sorry to see rooms so worn during this stay.

Loved having more space than a normal hotel room. However, it was described as three queen beds. Other hotels advertise as two queens and a pull-out couch. I was hoping to have the three queens, but it did turn out they counted the pull-out as a queen bed. Not the same. The parking situation is terrible. Very little parking is available. Had to use a parking garage that was several blocks away. Not a great situation when you arrive late and tired!

This hotel location was everything and beyond. The staff was kind. But the room stay was terrible. Not being able to control the air was a big let down for me. I had to sleep with my door open to generate air. That's what made my experience not so good. I would stay here again if the air conditioning was fixed where the patron can operate their flow of air

Very POOR parking
Room is good but parking is TERRIBLE! We booked 2 nights and no parking spot on our first night of stay! Have to wait (11:30AM) the nxt day to get a spot which the staff can’t even confirm if there’s one?? Hotel website should not advertised paid parking when they don’t have enough spot for reserved rooms!

The staff here are extremely nice and helpful! I can't say enough good things about them. The location is perfect-- easy access to both Georgetown and the metro. The rooms do seem like they could use some TLC. Surfaces and towels weren't clean, and the bathroom fan didn't work. No hair dryer, but luckily I had one from staying in a hostel previously. I love that they don't service the rooms every day-- I prefer that! I would stay again!
