Great place to stay!
The hotel is excellent, a free drink, live music with a guitar player and very nice staff made the stay great. The two bedroom option was perfect for traveling with a colleague or a child. The whole experience was fabulous. Only comment would be that parking was extremely expensive but otherwise all was perfect!

Fantastic!
Loved our stay at AKA. Everyone went above and beyond to accommodate us. Sergio even brought us a blanket while we watched a movie in their cinema room. We didn’t even ask for it. I will definitely stay there the next time I’m in DC.

Theres no room service, unless requested and some for a fee. Communication was not the best. Was told I could book for an additional week, then was told the rooms were sold out, after staying a full week. Now i have to find another hotel for work with less amineties.

The room was not cleaned to acceptable standards. Dark hairs under the stack of clean towels; the plates and flatware were not clean.
The staff, however, were excellent and very helpful.

AKA WH should offer daily cleaning room services. We stayed for 7 days and all they could offer was 1 day. That may have worked during COVID but that is no longer the environment. I like the hotel but their refusal to offer daily or every other day room cleaning is unfortunate as most hotels in the vicinity provide such cleaning services daily.

We would stay here again.
We enjoyed our stay at AKA White House. We traveled with our large family and were all on the same floor, which was nice. Compass Coffee is directly across the street which was nice to grab coffee or a matcha latte while waiting for our large group to gather. Notable restaurants within walking distance are Founding Farmers and Immigrant Food. We would stay at AKA White House again.

Great Family Getaway!
Great place overall. Very comfortable with separate bedrooms, living space, and kitchen. Air conditioning over sofa could get too cold, but it was constantly running because of outdoor hot temps. Great location near sites, metro access, and restaurants. Need to make sure housekeeping leaves supplies as needed. Overall would highly recommend and would consider staying here again.
