4/10 Fair

Cheap small depressing room
Wendy, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Not for me
Elevator door wouldn’t open on 4th floor where my room was. Blankets had multiple stains on them and mattress was soiled. Ended up leaving about 30 minutes after checking in.
2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Worst possible place to stay!
This is more of a shelter for low-income families than a hotel. The front desk person reeked of marijuana and wanted an extra 40 dollars just to hand us the room key. Homeless people were loitering in the lobby and there was urine on the floor. The room smelled terrible. We left immediately.

2/10 Poor

Expedia posted deceptive pictures of this property! My wife found bedbugs in her bed & many other human hairs on mattress cover. We did not stay but were still charged for 1 night We found another hotel in the area that was wonderful. This wasted so much time and disappointment to our 2 day vacation in Bethesda. We were vacationing from Canada to a place we had previously lived 25 years ago.
Hani, 3-night trip

Lord Jephthah Joojo, 28-night trip

2/10 Poor

This was the single most disgusting hotel I have ever stayed in my entire life. Only stay here if you have absolutely NO extra money to stay elsewhere. The 2 & 3rd floors house what appear to be welfare families. On many occasions, their little children roam the lobby/outside areas alone while their parents are getting high. Absolutely disgusting filthy property! DON’T STAY HERE!!

Enoch, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Average hotel and below par check in experience
Front desk person was not available for about 15 mins. A lady waiting in front of us had to call the office at least twice before someone answered. Front desk guy was on his phone while walking slowly back to counter/chair and get in front of computer.

8/10 Very good

Good value, clean and quiet Except for rude desk clerk stuffing his face, burping as loud as he could right in front of me and grunting his answers. It was like a bad movie He was gross
Mark, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Was extremely dated. Lobby smelled of urine and the first 10 minutes we were there the elevator got stuck with someone yelling from it right outside our room. Room was very small.
