Sheraton Pentagon City Hotel
The hotel and room were very nice. However, we stood in the cold for a long time waiting for a shuttle that never arrived (“due to bad weather”). & shuttles in AM start at 6 am, so too late to take due to early AM.

Would definitely recommend! Room was very clean, staff was very nice and helpful, location was great (in the heart of restaurants, etc. and close to the Capitol, Smithsonian, etc.), plenty of space for a smaller style room. Great value for a really wonderful stay!
