solid stay!

complimentary water daily cleaning great location

i really enjoyed the complimentary water they had every day, that was a sweet touch! daily cleaning kept everything fresh and tidy, it. the location was great (close to everything), i could easily walk to the national mall and the white house.

the valet parking fee was quite high, i found it unexpectedly expensive, so future guests should definitely factor that into their budget to avoid surprises!
