This place was nice. Other than the construction going on, the location made it easy to get to museums, restaurants and nightlife. The soap containers weren’t totally filled and the coffee machine wasn’t completely clean, but otherwise it was a nice place to stay.

The staff’s were very friendly.Air conditioning didn’t work on the first room they assigned to us but they readily moved us to another room.There was no hot water on the sink and the bathroom lights since it sensor it turns off on you in the middle of your shower.

The property was under much needed renovation during my stay. I've stayed here many times before, though. It has a great location for walkability.

Due to construction, it did seem sketchy from the outside. But we don’t judge by the cover of the book. The room was astoundingly clean! Even got a great city view. Definitely would book again!

I stayed here for a week on a business trip. I was quite surprised when I arrived late at night and found that the main building was undergoing major construction, as I had not been aware of it beforehand.
The room was very clean and comfortable. I especially appreciated the large number of power outlets available, which made it easy to charge and use my devices.
The location was also convenient, as I could walk to the downtown area. Overall, I had a good stay, and I would like to come back once the construction has been completed.

The hotel was lovely overall..it was in a great location for getting anywhere you needed in Washington DC with great nearby transport links by bus and metro. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The rooms were in a good condition (although they did appear a little dated) but had all the amenities you could need. Would definitely stay here again if I visit Washington DC again.

I enjoyed my stay at the Beacon Hotel and Corporate Quarter! During my visit the building was going through major renovations, but the staff were extremely kind and patient with helping me get my luggage up and down the floors. I thought the room was perfect, clean, and its amenities were well maintained. I would certainly come back the next time I am in DC! Special thanks to V, Karen, and Solomon for their kindness and hard work, as well as to the other staff who I did not get to catch their name.

The room pictures online don't quite do it justice! They are really beautiful, modern, spacious with incredible beddings. Loved it! It's easy to do ride share or walk to nearby restaurants and sights. The staff is very helpful!
