As always, we had an excellent stay. The location is perfect, Dupont and Adams Morgan are within walking distance to great restaurants and other points of interest.
As usual, all of the staff are friendly and helpful. We have always stayed at this hotel and have for the last 15 plus years, from the time it was a Kimpton owned property until now. However, this time we had a room on the top floor, the shower wasn't as strong as lower floors, the bathroom sink had a large crack, there weren't any closet doors and the furniture had pieces of the wood missing... a bit of an update needed perhaps but all in all the value is excellent compared to other hotels in the area and you can't beat the friendly staff and location.
With that said, anytime we travel to DC we will absolutely continue to stay at the Madera.
