The hotel was lovely overall..it was in a great location for getting anywhere you needed in Washington DC with great nearby transport links by bus and metro. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The rooms were in a good condition (although they did appear a little dated) but had all the amenities you could need. Would definitely stay here again if I visit Washington DC again.
