Global Luxury Suites at the White House

Great location for visiting the White House, Washington Monument and world War II Memorial. We knew this operated as an Air B&B so usual hotel amenities are not available. Desk staff very nice and helpful and always there. Felt safe coming and going, key fob used to enter property. Did not need to call Global Luxury Suites help line. Cheesecake Factory on floor 1 for breakfast or dinner. Old Ebbitt Grill 2 blocks away.

DO NOT STAY HERE Do not stay here. There is absolutely no natural light coming into this unit as you are in a square and you are looking right into somebody else’s apartment. Not to mention the place is dark no lighting in the bedroom other that table lamp, no large mirror. Not to mention, I’m spending money for my vacation. I don’t wanna have to clean at the end of it and there were strict instructions on having to put out the garbage and clean???

I should’ve stayed at a hotel. I felt like an unwanted step child in this apartment. I arrived about 5:00pm. Security handed me an envelope and that was it. I went to go find my apartment for the next 3 weeks. It was definitely a lot smaller than the pictures. And a wonderful surprise against the wall. A full sized crib where a dining table should have been! I have no children and never requested a crib! Turned on the living room tv and no picture. Tried different things, finally decided to check all the connections and yeah, all the cables were disconnected. That was fun connecting them. The bedroom. Felt like a carnival ride. The dresser sloped down towards the middle, 2 drawers were missing the handles, one was slightly broken. Not sure how the tv didn’t topple from the sad dresser drooping. The incredible thing here is how the bed was exactly the same as dresser, broken in the middle and drooping. Sat on the edge of the bed, that’s fine. Went to lie down and that dip in the middle, was a little scary. I was exhausted and knew that no one would come help Saturday night. The apartment is obviously the sad rental that no one really takes care of. The touch up paint didn’t even try to match the wall, the scratches, broken string on the bedroom blinds, sad lamps and the legs on the glass end tables that fall off, I almost cried. Did call them to remove the crib, but I didn’t want to try and get a different apartment since I figured this was the best they could do. I made the best out of it.

Worth Checking Out Good option for downtown Washington (near the White House) with an attractive price provided that you're OK with prepayment and limited cancellation option. Rooms are good; there are some things that need attending to.

A well appointed apartment in the heart of DC. Very safe and very nice staff.

If you’re expecting a nice place, then you’ll surely be disappointed. We arrived at our place with multiple issues (lights burnt out, large amounts of dust on the ceilings/light fixtures, a soap holder ripped off the shower wall, and what looked like water damage that warped part of the hallway by the kitchen). After unpacking after a long day we decided to wash off and realized we didn’t have hot water in both bathrooms. We contacted the company and received no response. Next morning we talked to the front desk and they mentioned that the hot water was a building wide problem but mentioned it was fixed. We checked the water shortly after and we still didn’t have water. Maintenance came in and said a part was needed but at the moment there was warm water, it was barely luke warm. The next day they came back and worked on the showers, they said it was fixed. We still had no hot water but barely warm water. We contacted the rental company multiple times to get this resolved and we got nothing back. When I kept calling their phone line, we were told maintenance tried to knock but “we didn’t answer that morning” or that “the problem was already resolved when they talked to the building.” This was never the case. We worked remotely each Mon-Fri. So after 9 nights/10 days of no hot water, maintenance finally fixed it. We made multiple requests for this property to provide a refund since it’s unacceptable not to have any hot water for that long. No response yet. Avoid at all costs!
