Would Recommend

I was there with my sister & the room we had (pool view, 2 kings) was spacious and comfortable. The beds were comfortable and the bathroom was a good size. I also appreciated the linens. The staff was wonderful and it was very convenient to the metro station.

Kathleen

I would like a fan in the bathroom. I would like an extra blanket stashed in the closet. I would like a softer and more comfortable chair and ottoman. It is hard as a rock and the ottoman is hard to move and too noisy when moved. I would like a bathroom closer to the restaurant. The staff at the reservation desk were excellent. Wonderful and professional people. Servers in the restaurant were excellent. Very comfortable beds. Cleanliness in the room and entire hotel was excellent!!! Nice quiet atmosphere in the halls and rooms. I didn’t hear anything from the rooms next to me. Yaaay. 😀 People at Starbucks were very nice and polite. Loved that the hotel is so close to te Spy Museum and the wharf.

Great except bathroom shower cleanliness

Great location. Easy metro transportation to and from airport. I arrived with a bad cold and flu like symptoms. When I was strong enough to take shower I suddenly noticed mold and grime in the grout of the shower walls, and also several questionable brown/black marks on the shower tiles. The room was clean, but apparently they are not checking the cleanliness of their showers. I will stay there again because of the great location, but I’m definitely checking the bathroom when I first check in.
