Location was very ideal - close to the metro and food options. Did not have as many amenities as other hotels but was good value for the price. Bed was comfortable and water pressure in shower was strong! Only wished the room had a fridge for leftovers I brought back.

The Architect was a charming, small hotel in an excellent location. The bedroom was small, but the bathroom (especially the shower) was amazing. The staff was very helpful and let us check our bags until it was time for our flights.

I got what I paid for. Convenient location with a budget stay. Everything is old. The room is clean, with a loud but functional AC. Shampoo and soap are minimal but provided.

Great location, old style boutique hotel. Easy walk to the museums and close to a good train route to some other attractions like the Arlington Cemetery and the Washington Nationals Baseball ground. We will definitely stay here again when we are back in town

I've stayed at this hotel more than a handful of times. Rooms are always very clean! Really no amenities to comment on. Great place for the person that just needs a place to sleep and shower and go about your business. Close to metro. Plenty of places to eat and see nearby.

The location of the hotel is great. It’s not flashy place at all but the staff are friendly. It’s fine for a short stay especially if you don’t plan to stay indoors often.

It’s a nicely renovated hotel and very clean. My only complaint was that the shower head was broken and the water pressure was very poor. It was a struggle to actually shower under a thin stream of water. Half of the water actually shot up to the ceiling. The hotel staff are generally friendly and helpful but it depends who is on staff that day.

Very close to dowtown and white house. It was within the walking distance of the embassy I wanted to visit as well. Room clean and easy access and a great guy at the front desk.

I like the best of this hotel is its location, which you can see on the map. Moved from another hotel to the Architect Hotel, the water pressure impressed me. I heard that this hotel went through a renovation, but it maintained its old charm. One nightshift receptionist was particularly helpful to make sure that he would get my lunch bag from the refrigerator before 7 am, and handed it to me as soon as I stepped out of the elevator heading out to work. I loved to stay there for three weeks.

2/10 Poor

It was very noisy (at the intersection of two major roads) and the bed was of poor quality. Location was excellent.
