This was the first time we stayed in DC overnight. We chose to stay here because it was convenient to the event we were attending. The room and bathroom were clean. Room was small, almost prison cell-like. Bed was comfortable enough, with clean sheets, but seemed smaller than a double bed. AC worked well. Not enough clear, flat spaces to put things down. Free WIFI was spotty, mostly awful. TV reception was so poor, I turned it off. Would have been nice to have 2 washcloths in bathroom, instead of one. No hooks to hang a robe or towels near the shower. And a shelf or caddy in the shower to place our soap, shampoo, etc would have also been nice. I mean, www.simplehuman, Windsor Hotel! Coffee in the lobby was very generic, but lack of cream or half-n-half is regrettable. The one ice machine in the building was not working. If you've driven a car to the Windsor, consider adding $37 to $50 to your budget for nearby garage parking. We took a chance and parked on a side street nearby, but it was a Saturday, so enforcement was probably lax. You may not be as lucky during the week, and/or for a multi-night stay.

The inn is very rundown with dated peeling wallpaper, water stained ceilings and stained rugs, our bathroom, which was recently painted was done very poorly. One of the emergency exits was blocked with furniture. Our two bedroom room had no dressers and all of the furniture seriously looked like it was collected from someone’s trash. It needs a huge infusion of capital to bring it up to what I would’ve considered basic standards.

Not good enough
My room didn’t have a good condition. Conditioner worked very noisy, isolation between the rooms is a very bad, I heard the sound of working TV from next door room like it was my room TV. Blinds was broken and I couldn’t to open them. Bathroom didn’t have any hook to hang up my robe. But my friend’s room had much better condition for the same price!

No frills kind of hotel on the older side, but quaint and quiet. Not my first stay here, and the staff is fairly nice. Rooms are dated but clean, and my only bone to pick was the low water pressure with faucets and toilet.

For the price of the hotel it was fine for the amount of time we were there. On the last night we found a centipede in the bathroom which grossed us out. The walls in the bathroom are also falling apart and the paint is coming off. Entire hotel is made with carpet, needs to be updated for cleanliness.

I enjoyed the vintage feel of the hotel, and the staff was very friendly. Great neighborhood too. Downsides are that it's not too close to the metro and there's not many options for parking long-term nearby.

The front desk staff had a very good attitude. But there was a strong smell of marijuana in the room. The quilt had a strong smell of sweat and seemed to have never been washed. There was an argument next door, but it was never resolved.

Mixed bag. It's a great location in NW within walking distance to loads of things. Safe neighborhood. But rooms are badly in need of updating. And that's probably an understatement. Old creaky bed with flat pillows. Marks and chipped paint on walls. Wall mounted AC unit doesn't work very well. Old and dilipated furniture. Shag carpet. An ok place if you are crashing a night or two but not very comfortable and you will want to get out of your room quickly.
