    The room service is optional and you have to ask for it. When we did ask for our trash to be emptied after the second day it wasn't done.

    It's a lovely hotel with a very friendly staff. The rooms are a great size and the full kitchenette is a great addition. Foggy bottom is such a lovely neighborhood to stay in DC. Walking distance to Georgetown and DuPont circle makes it an ideal location to explore the city.

    No bar for a drink at night and nothing in the area either.

    Very spacious comfortable room and the kitchen was very handy to have. The hotel is in a quiet location about a 10 minute walk to the Lincoln Memorial/National Mall area. If you don't want to walk there is the Metro and buses close by or an Uber/Lyft is around $10.

    Some parts of the room/hotel are quite old, like for example bathroom. This is not necessarily a bad thing, as it is charming in its own way.

    Excellent location, quiet and pleasant neighborhood. The train station for the hospital is 4 min walking, which is very convenient. Main city attractions and very close, and you can go walking there. The staff working there was very nice and helpful.

    I recently stayed at The River Inn in Washington, D.C. for two nights, and I couldn't be more pleased with my experience. From the moment I arrived, the staff was exceptionally friendly and attentive, making me feel welcomed and valued. The room I stayed in was impeccably clean and well-equipped with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The bed was very comfortable. One of the highlights of my stay was the hotel's location. Nestled in a charming neighborhood, it was conveniently close to major attractions and the Metro. The River Inn exceeded my expectations in every way. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Washington, D.C. and looking for a perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and exceptional service. I will definitely be returning on my next trip to the city!

    The restaurant staff were cold and not helpful. Menu was vague and food was overpriced for what we received.

    The hotel is in a beautiful location, our rooms overlooked the street. The front desk staff were incredibly friendly and helpful.

    The air conditioning at night was a a bit noisy but I got used to it. The wi-fi could definitely be improved as it kept dropping out.

    Helpful and friendly staff that go above and beyond to make your stay comfortable. Large, extremely clean rooms with everything new and spotless. Quiet peaceful rooms with a nice view and I appreciated having a kitchenette. The area was convenient for Georgetown and other parts of the city too. Overall very happy with our stay.

    The bathtub needs a grab bar for safety. Also, a note in the bathroom that bar soap is available at the front desk would have been nice.

    Loved how close it was to the Metro stop. Loved the closeness to Trader Joe's and Whole Foods. Loved being able to have breakfast in the room. Loved buying wine and having it in the room. Loved the staff.

    Parking is expensive, but at least they have one.

    We were upgraded to a bigger suite with bedroom, living room and kitchen. We used kitchen for breakfast, which was very convenient. The location is pretty good, a bit of walk to the center, but close to subway and away from the city noise.

    There are several steps to the hotel entry, it would be good to install a ramp.

    Neighbourhood is fantastic, real old Washington with small houses, so finding such a nice hotel comes as a real surprise. Rooms are spacious and quiet, staff friendly and helpful, no matter how many people there are at the reception desk.
