8/10 Good

Functional, no frills, & perhaps a little tired, but friendly staff & clean bedroom were the important things. The shared bathroom kind of worked, although it could have done with a little more attention in the cleaning. On the whole an ok stay, I’d certainly use again

Steven, 3-night trip

4/10 Poor

All the public areas, door handles, TV remote control, window sills carpets and bed spreads need a deep clean. Otherwise, the reception staff and breakfast service staff were great. It’s a shame that the lack of cleanliness lets them down
Annastazia-Jo, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great stay as always

6/10 Okay

Very tired decor however bed linen and towels were clean. Bed was comfy. Fairly good breakfast although basic - more attention needs to be paid to wiping and clearing tables, cleaning sauce bottles and replenishing the small buffet.Welcome was friendly. Shower was fairly weak and went hot and cold, the sink, taps and bath were old and stained through age. The bedroom carpet and walls were were also quite stained. The hotel is in a very good position to go out for the evening.
Kathleen, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

A basic guest house, nice enough staff but some attention to decor needed.

The young international staff is delightful. I stayed a week at The Washington and got to know them. I am sorry I didn't learn all their names, but I do remember Sumaya, Kassa (?), Kate, Katie, Rhiarre (?).

Prompt check in tho free early check in would make me want to stay here again, room dated, shared bathroom not ideal but was clean, a great place not too far from centre for an overnight place to stay with free breakfast at reasonable cost. Yes it was hot in the room but then it was outside too

Joan, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Great staycst the Washington. I loved the older feel of this hotel and the staff were so friendly and helpful. I think the place is just needing some redecoration where paint is ageing and chipping. Loved the fresh ground coffee option in the room, just maybe needed a little more of that in the jar. I would stay here again.
Tony, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Mice running around the property. No ironing board. No tv remote. Cracked sink and big cracks in bathroom wall. I did not stay!! Have to pay for alternative and no refund offered. I am not please with the hotel management or Expedia customer service. I will be closing my account.
