Pros. Room was very clean

Cons. Perhaps I didn’t read enough fine print. But I was surprised to see the add on charge of $42 to park my car . I didn’t see the fee until checkout time.

Pros. Friendly and accommodating staff, clean rooms, and the location put most DC sights within walking distance.

Cons. DC traffic is bad during the week. If you drive there plan on walking or taking a taxi. It's not their fault, but it's the one thing I didn't like about my trip.
