michael, Nov 2021 - Salamander Washington DC

The hotel, staff and amenities were excellent. Everyone was very nice and helpful. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. The ONLY negative, which I guess would be expected at a hotel of this calibre, is the price for food. Breakfast starting at $32 is a bit much in my opinion, but it was a great breakfast :)

Cons (-) Our TV had very limited channels=only CBS and HBO. Shower head should be replaced with water=saving one.

Cons (-) Experienced late check-in - room wasn't ready for 2 hours. Limited hot water. Location not convenient for tourist activities, although okay for Georgetown.

Pros (+) Wonderful experience from beginning to end. Courteous staff, beautiful facility and great location

Cons (-) not much could have been better- dresser drawers were inconveniently located and hard to use (didn't come out far enough) but that's down to a piece of furniture. The hotel itself was amazing.
