Fairfield Inn by Marriott Washington D.C.

8/10 Good

"Front desk staff were great! Room was great! Only disappointing thing was the strong weed smell that was in the entire hallway of the floor I stayed on. "

Embassy Suites by Hilton Washington DC Chevy Chase Pavilion

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast was great. The omlete station was amazing. The staff at the restaurant was super nice. The manager does a supurb job. The evening reception has several mixed drinks you could chose from, beers, wine, and light snacks. The hot tub was nice and hot. The pool was warm. The front staff and house cleaning were accommodating and friendly. The room was clean and large enough to spread out our bags. The location is right above a metro which made travel to the national mall easy. There are several good restaurants within walking distance. Trader joes is in the same building so you can grab snacks for the room. Overall, one of the best hotels Ive stayed in. I would definitely recommend for families. "

Glover Park - Georgetown

8/10 Good

"I chose this hotel because it was very convenient due to its proximity to the Chinese Embassy, where I had to go to handle some paperwork. It is an average hotel in fair condition; the rooms are dated—as is the furniture—and the doors are slightly damaged. Some fixtures are old and loose—such as the main door lock—but it wasn't entirely bad. I would give it three stars."
