Cambria Hotel Washington D.C. Navy Yard Riverfront

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was nice and professional and the hotel was clean, close to navy yard ."

Residence Inn Washington Capitol Hill/Navy Yard

8/10 Good

"The room was great. The parking is atrocious and being able to stop somewhere to check in was terrible but I don't know what else they could do with where they are situated. Very close to the ballpark and other amenities, but to get in and out of there with a car is awful. I pictured it as being in a spacious area when I saw it online and booked but it is right downtown which makes it convenient but terrible to get in and out of. When we got there the ball game was .about to start and they had blocked off all the streets so we couldn't even get to the hotel. The police wouldn't let us go through but after many circles one woman policeman felt bad for us and let us through to park somewhere else until we could get to the hotel. Thank you for the one with compassion. The only woman working that block. Parker was wonderful once we got to the valet parking spot. He took good care of us the rest of the time we were there."
