We stayed in a suite with a full kitchen. It was great having a toaster, microwave, fridge, and tableware. The room was large, and great for a breakfast meeting. There is shopping nearby, so we did not need to go out for breakfast.

Pros (+) Nice big room with kitchen (separate room no less) and small dressing room near bathroom. Comfy bed and couch. Nicest woman at checkin who was extremely helpful with maps, suggestions, answering questions. Great location close to Foggy Bottom metro station and While Foods and good restaurants and near to Georgetown
Cons (-) We were excited they had free bikes which we signed up for but after going a mile or so we realized they were in bad shape and not really safe so we turned around and went back and went for a walk instead. The helmets weren't safe either.
