Residence Inn By Marriott Washington, Dc Dupont Circle

“Capitol location!”

Convenient to the Metro. Nice complimentary breakfasts, friendly and helpful staff. Would be nice if the hotel had either a pool or outdoor seating to enjoy an evening outside. Two bedroom, two bath suite met all our needs.

“DuPont Circle extended stay”

This hotel is a bit further from city center and it is at least a 20-minute walk to the Foggy Bottom metro stop. Something to consider if you need to get around DC via metro.

This hotel is a bit further from city center and it is at least a 20-minute walk to the Foggy Bottom metro stop. Something to consider if you need to get around DC via metro. Nonetheless, the area has various food options nearby. The hotel is small and dated. From the rooms to furniture around the hotel, you can tell it hasn't been updated in years. I arrived and the front desk woman was on the phone and went into the back room to talk. I stood waiting at an empty desk for some time. Eventually she came out to check me in. They seemed short staffed as she was checking me in, answering calls, baking cookies, making popcorn, etc. They had a water jug with lemons in the lobby that was almost empty, and I asked if there was more water. She told me she gave me a water bottle when I checked in. True, but I was wondering about the lemon water. Probably helpful if they had one more person at the desk. Anyway, if you get lucky enough to be there when someone is baking be sure to grab the hot chocolate chip cookies. I got upgraded to a huge 2-bedroom apt style room with a full kitchen. The kitchen is stocked with everything you need for an extended stay. The rooms are cleaned every other day unless you make a request. Wifi is a bit slow. Bathroom has big bottles of shower gel, shampoo, & conditioner attached to the wall for your use. The vanity area had small bars of soap and even mini bottles of lotion (rare to find these days) and a makeup remover wipe. Breakfast was decent with Chobani plain greek yogurt, fresh oatmeal with various toppings to add, waffle bar, hot foods, milk cartons for kids, and coffee. Overall, an okay stay. Just felt far from the city and old hotel feeling.

“Nice location but dirty and tired rooms with housekeeping that is not up to snuff”

Stayed for a week for work. The front desk staff were nice and the free breakfast was decent. But the room was dark with a stained and dirty carpet. The housekeeping left much to be desired - did not clean the bathroom sink basin most days, left dirty dishes in the sink, I got out new roll of TP ... more

Stayed for a week for work. The front desk staff were nice and the free breakfast was decent. But the room was dark with a stained and dirty carpet. The housekeeping left much to be desired - did not clean the bathroom sink basin most days, left dirty dishes in the sink, I got out new roll of TP and placed it on top of the dial but HK did not bother to put it on the dial when they cleaned….Disappointing. I have stayed at the same property in Arlington and really liked it. Think I will switch back to that one next time.
