"the only criticism is that the breakfast buffet was in the lobby which did not have any tables to sit at. just putting a couple three person tables would help. alternatively, they could change there breakfast items to be more high quality grab and go items. i liked the cereal and milk but it was annoying to have to juggle it while eating on a sofa."

10/10 Excellent
"Staff were amazing & welcoming. Stayed with my boyfriend & our 16 month old & as soon as we were checking in the staff member was amazing to our son & gave him some water (can’t remember his name but his customer service was over the moon we were in the car for 4hrs & my son was fussy by the time of check in). Room was clean& the area of the hotel was convenient to many restaurants, grocery stores, etc. only 15-20 min drive to get to Washington DC for the museums & to see the monument. Downside is parking, but we parked on the street instead of paying the $50ish a night to park in the garage. Sometimes had to drive around to wait for a spot to open up if you didn’t get lucky. I definitely will stay here again"

"The front desk manager Felisha was very rude regarding our parking accommodations. We were not notified that the streets would be blocked and that they were hosting an event causing little to no parking. We were refunded our parking fee for that day. In addition Thankfully some attendants or security downstairs helped us with the issue insured us our vehicle would not get towed due to parking garage being filled. Gave us a slip to put in window of car. Overall The hotel was nice and clean housekeeping very helpful when needed"
