This was a great place to stay while visiting the nations Capital. It was very central to the mall, museums, monuments and many food trucks. The staff was great when needed. Being able to park our car in the garage and either walk, take the many electric bikes/scooters or hop on the Big Bus tour (which has a stop very close by) allowed us to fit in much more than expected on our trip. Would definitely stay again!!!
