1. The only reason I gave it a 'poor' rating instead of a 'terrible' is that the staff was friendly and the bar looked nice (when it was actually open, which was rarely).

2. Having emphasized that lets be brief: Big rooms, great beds and linen, great service, great amenities, walking distance to the white house (make sure the president is at home because we missed him, he went on a vacation without our permission) but (nobody is perfect) the breakfast is 'so so' (rather poor) and the parking fee (if you come by car) is not the cheapest.

"Wow and only 900m away from the President of the USA..... " Read full review on TripAdvisor 9/24/2011 Vote

3. The selection was very poor.

"Great location but definetely not a bargain " Read full review on TripAdvisor 5/3/2011 Vote

4. It's a poor choice given how much additional space could easily be devoted to the bathroom without taking anything from the rest of the room.

"Funky - but a little too funky " Read full review on TripAdvisor 4/2/2011 Vote

5. poor selection of tv channels and no microwave in our room.

"A very cool hotel. " Read full review on Expedia 7/3/2009 Vote

6. A last word: My initial impression of Hotel Rouge was very poor because of the incredibly rude front desk person who greeted us.

"An almost completely delightful experience " Read full review on TripAdvisor 6/29/2008 Vote

7. Hotel Rouge has great ambiance, but very poor lighting.

"Okay " Read full review on YahooTravel 5/11/2005 Vote

8. Really poor front desk staff, room service that took forever to arrive (and the choices after 9 pm were unbelievably limited, there was no menu in my room, and the restaurant staff had a terrible time communicating what was available), and a bordering-on-seedy ambiance added up to a bad trip of a visit.
