Bed was a little uncomfortable but nothing horrible. Place was nice and in the middle of everything. Wish the parking didn’t cost so much.

Location perfect for family sightseeing. A bit run down and not very sparkly but good enough for a few days. Super convenient to have restaurants on site, great to have a pool on site; however both need some love. Good enough all around.

My family arrived there at dawn because our flight was delayed. The employee looked so blunt that he didn't want to work.She gave me a parking ticket, but it didn't work. Also, I made a reservation for two bed rooms, and she assigned me one bed room. So I went back to the lobby to change rooms. There was no tour map such as bus route map.I have traveled a lot, but it was the first time that a hotel employee was unfriendly

Pros. Great bed, friendly staff, nice furnishings, with photographs of Washington, D.C. sites. My son and granddaughter loved the food and I thought it had improved since last year. We always eat there in the morning and evening, giving us a good start and a restful evening.

Cons. I would have liked a light weight blanket in addition to the light down blanket on the bed.
