Top Friendship Arch Hotel Reviews

Moxy Washington DC Downtown

8/10 Good

"If you are looking for a hotel in downtown DC for a reasonable price, then this would be ideal. The room itself was very small and not your average/typical size hotel room, if you are staying for the weekend, it can be loud at night because you have the rooftop bar/restaurant. This is more of a hotel for the younger/partying type. I stayed for one night . The bed was not comfortable, I had to request a blanket because it was cold and blanket on the bed was light."
