I loved the themed rooms, it was really unique! I also really appreciate the attention to detail and the little things, like having a great selection of books in the rooms, actually comfortable seating, and the comfiest hotel bed I've ever experienced!

All around great choice. I loved that they had snacks and beverages available free of charge.
Grabbing a water bottle on the way to hike or see the city was a wonderful gesture.

There was a decent restaurant in the hotel. I had a gas fireplace in my room. Rooms were decorated in different themes. Mine was Egyptian.
Shower pressure was good. Towels thick. Bathrobes to borrow. Keurig for in-room coffee. Complimentary water in lobby and in the room. A little balcony.

The inn at 500 was about $240 a night. We had access to a free shuttle and bicycles. Free water and soda at the entrance, free tea and coffee in the morning and a fancy steak house downstairs.
The reason why I will not be staying here again is because of the shower. The shower head is too high, too little water comes out and the shower head was really dirty. Took me way too long to shower due to the water pressure. The soaps are horrible too, dirty bottles attached to the wall and the conditipner felt like I was putting lotion on my hair. The tv barely worked and the AC made the room so dry my nose bled every night.

Quick 2 night "staycation" for my wife and I, couldn't be happier that we chose the Inn at 500 Capitol for the couple of nights. Staff was extremely friendly, room was very comfortable and worth the price we paid.

The hotel was very clean and had a warm feel to it! The bed was the comfiest hotel bed I’ve ever slept in! We told them it was our 5 year wedding anniversary and sadly they didn’t do anything for us to celebrate. The shower wasn’t the most clean shower but the rest of the room felt good.
