Even though we knew the room would be small, there was nowhere to put our luggage other than on the floor. This made it awkward to walk easily around the bed. The breakfast cereal options were limited. The breakfast cereal choices were high sugar content cereals, except for Rice Bubbles which in itself is tasteless and has little nutritional value. A sugar and fruit free muesli would have been perfect. There were yogurt based options, but again they were sweet fruit based yogurts. A natural yogurt would be a good option to include. A significant concern and surprise was that the cutlery was single use throw away plastic. This bothered us.

Primarily the location. It was quiet, easy to get to and in a lovely neighbourhood.

The Poppy is located in a beautiful, walkable neighborhood with nearby transportation options that made exploring the city easy. The owners and staff were welcoming and helpful, and the other guests were friendly. The guesthouse itself is a comfortable, relaxing space, with lovely rooms and a couple of great outdoor areas to enjoy.

Might let people know that Room 1 is facing street and ask if ok with street traffic. I was very grateful that my request to change rooms was immediately met and I enjoyed the room.

I really liked the comfort of the guesthouse- not noisy or busy. Staff very accommodating to my various requests. Highly recommend for people looking for a hotel alternative.

We were right near the central air that tended to be noisy

Staff was very courteous

As others have commented, I would prefer there to be less plastic waste at breakfast.

For a hotel close to a major city, The Poppy Georgetown Guesthouse is extremely quite and the location is perfect. We stayed in a King Room with Bath - the room was very spacious. The guesthose is within walking distance of Georgetown's many shops, bars and restaurants, including the waterfront. You can also walk to all the main attractions in downtown Washington if you feel so inclined, although it's only a short hop in an Uber. Due to a flight delay, we arrived late at night. Nico was extremely helpful and provided an easy-to-remember door code to make our arrival and check-in as smooth as possible.

The rooms at the top of the guesthouse were quite small.

The breakfast facilities were good. Location was exceptional with easy access to Georgetown and sites of Washington. Lovely guest environment and clean.

Managing my own parking was a bit of a nuisance because I had to think about it every 2 hours. It is easy to do, but it was a little chore I didn't expect to deal with. If you know a head of time, not a big deal. Had I done my homework, I'd have known this and prepared myself for it.

So cute! Cozy and quaint. Love the snacks. Very clean. Hosts/managers, Nico and John, super friendly, welcoming, and laid back. It totally felt like a guesthouse; you are a guest at someone's house. Nice location, quieter than i expected. Nice walk to the main shopping area, restaurants, the university, etc.

We loved the perfect location, close to so many great restaurants and shops. The neighbourhood is so gorgeous to walk around. There are lovely parks nearby. John, our host, went out of his way to look after our dietary requirements. It was easy to check in & out. We would definitely stay here again. It is a charming, place !

It would be nice if they don’t use plastic plates and cutlery for a breakfast

Guesthouse is in a beautiful location, metro 15min by walk (bus stop closer), very helpful staff, continental breakfast (bread, cereals, fruit, ham, cheese, sweet pastry, boiled eggs , yogurt, coffee, tea, juice). Very good restaurant right next door

Our room was very close to the breakfast/kitchen area and we could hear the early morning kitchen activity through the wall. Not a big deal.

A classic Georgetown home converted into a hotel that blends perfectly into the vibe of the surrounding neighborhood. Every detail was considered, we particularly loved the included breakfast spread and self serve coffee machine all day. The keyless entry was a great touch, it was nice to never have to remember a room key upon leaving. We loved sitting out in the back gardens under an umbrella in the rain sipping our coffees, what a surreal and tranquil place in the middle of the city. We have recommended this hotel to anyone who will listen to us since returning home, and we will certainly be returning at our earliest opportunity.

Great place all around. Nice outdoor space and breakfast spot inside.

Great location in historic Georgetown, not too far a walk from subway. They provide an excellent breakfast each morning and snacks and drinks are available to help yourself to all day. Lovely garden behind property. Staff very helpful. Fast wifi. Would definitely return.

Floor creaked a bit when someone was walking around on the landing above. Otherwise no complaints.

Really nice neighbourhood and owner of the guesthouse. The rooms as well as the front door were accessible via a code given to us by the owner. Nice big beds, quiet A/C, modern bathroom. A cosy common area with drinks and snacks provided for free, coffee machine and breakfast pastries and fruit. Perfect for a short stay in Washington.

Room should have been cleaned for a two day stay.

Location, hotel, and managers were wonderful!

If I had to be picky, it's near a few bus stops but it's not close to the metro (none of Georgetown is), and the main area of Georgetown is about a 10-15 minute walk.

Nico and the staff were extremely accommodating and friendly, the place itself was very cute and quaint. The outdoor space was lovely (we even saw a bunny). I was able to use a pack n play the hotel had (with an added mattress), and I had diapers delivered prior to my arrival, it worked out great.

Being picky now but a safe in the room would have been nice

Staff were excellent & really helpful, lovely area in the heart of Georgetown. Beautiful gardens
