    Interesting large old house but a bit run-down. Air conditioners are noisy and don't keep up with the DC heat in the breakfast room. Many guests don't bother with the breakfast, and don't miss much. A place to stay, not a home away from home. A few blocks from Adams Morgan, but not walking distance to the center.

    The Taft Bridge Inn exceeded my expectations. It is located in a lovely neighborhood-amongst the many foreign embassies in the NW corner of DC. The inn is about 1/2 a mile up Connecticut Ave from Dupont Circle- within walking distance of several restaurants and shops. There is a small natural foods store on Columbia Ave within a 5 minute walk. Breakfast is served in the dining room; this is not the kind of B&B with cereal boxes lined up next to a pitcher of milk and a bag of bread next to the toaster! Breakfast choices include eggs, toast, bagels, cereals- both hot and cold, juice and fruit. The formal living room is stocked with games, books, magazines, etc. There is also a common sitting area on the 3rd floor - a nice place to read, play board games or chat. For guest convenience, the 3rd floor refrigerator is stocked with cold beverages for a small cost. My room on the 3rd floor was exactly as depicted in the photograph. The bed was comfortable, the closet had adequate storage space. For the 3rd floor guests sharing bathrooms, there were 2 full bathrooms- one on the 3rd floor and another 1/2 a flight down. Lights were plentiful throughout the house - no worries about getting lost in the dark. One downside- the house does not have central air conditioning. Each guest room is equipped with a room air conditioning unit - mine worked well enough. The unit in the shared area of the 3rd floor was a bit noisy. The rooms were impeccably clean; bath towels, hand towels and washcloths were plentiful and the common bathrooms feature bottles of mild (vs. heavily scented) shampoo, body wash and conditioner. I travel next to Washington, whether for business or pleasure, I will definitely stay at the Taft Bridge Inn. I've also highly recommended it to my colleagues and friends.

    i traveled for 24 hours to come to Washington D.C. It was late - 7pm and i couldn't make a reservation on-line because i do not have a credit card. I was happy to find Marianne had kept for me a room anyway. She was very courteous and helped me settle in quickly so i could have some rest. I found the place to be very clean and neat, a homely environment i would definitely recommend to anyone coming to the D.C area.

    I have stayed at the Taft many times and never found a flaw; it's perfectly located behind the Hilton, near DuPont Circle, charges 1/3rd of DC's going rates, and provides as much "home" as is possible while insuring privacy, comfort, guest support, and beauty as possible. The breakfast is as good as home, the staff beyond what money can buy, and the decor and very different rooms, from luxery and huge to tiny cheap attic rooms with shared baths, are all that one could hope for. I have traveled everywhere in the world, and stayed often in Dc, and the Taft Bridge Inn is by far the best value. Kal

    We came to DC to visit museums and to attend the Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear. We chose this B & B for these reasons: positives from a past visit; hospitalty of the staff; closeness to the Dupont Circle Metro; and amenities of the Dupont Circle and Adams Morgan neighborhoods. Once again, we made the right choice.
