My kids enjoyed hour pool and gym. 2 TV's sitting room.
Me and husband felt that the mattress's were little soft.
I liked the convenience of the Metro right across the street, even though we were on the blue line when the crash happened. We still come down and Doti again.
The Restaurant were fantastic in the hotel and Joe Theisman Place. A enjoyable stay.

Breakfast option good; wait staff excellent.
A spa that was out of order the entire time we were there.
Rooms were clean, staff was good to excellent, the location on the Washington Metro line was just what we needed. It seemed ridiculous that a broken jacuzzi couldn't have been fixed in a few days. Also, noise from the elevators created a vibration and noise in the room we were in that was unpleasant.

Rooms were spacious, clean, well appointed and comfortable. Children loved it and breakfast was wonderful.
Parking is expensive at $18.00/day.

Cleanliness, location, staff, breakfast and manager's reception.
Great place to stay when visiting the Washington area. The location by the metro is terrific and the new free trolley adds to the great location. The renovated public areas are attractive.

Clean- close to train station and downtown.
Room smell was strong then they moved us to smoking.
Overall great hotel. 16 dollar parking was a bit high. Across street from train station/Metro. Next to Washington monument and at the end of the main stretch for downtown. Room was nice and big- the maid over cleaned our room with a spray scent that was to strong for us to stay so I asked to be moved but then they moved us to a smoky smelling room- there were very few people at that time so not sure why they couldn't put us in a better room- one that didn't smell. Otherwise good place if you can get a room that isn't too strong. I would recommend this to a friend. read more

Big and airy with location convenient to metro and old town.
Parking stinks and what parking they charged you for was woefully difficult to park.
Very pleasant hotel in a convenient part of old town. Our room was very nice with a view and breakfast was adequate. Restaurants close by offered better fare for dinner. Parking was very tight and I had trouble fitting in between concrete posts with my suv. Altogether a pleasant stay.

Inexpensive.
We got a smoking room that we did not want and the front desk confused our bill regarding parking.
It's a relatively unattractive hotel with very basic services and food. I would not stay there if there were other choices in the same price range.

The location was centrally located to the "m" train that traveled to Arlington and Washington D.C.
Some very snooty staff. My wife lost her engagement ring diamond of 38 years somewhere.
The breakfasts were fabulous and the manager's 5-7 cocktail hours were wonderful. After a very stressful drive down from Cleveland it was much appreciated.
