The Melrose is my favorite place to stay in DC. It is located in close proximity to everything you want to see and do. The hotel is beautifully appointed, the bed and pillows are very comfortable, and the staff is exceptional. I don't bother staying anywhere else.

Hotel was good. Location was excellent. Staff went above and beyond. They didn't stop spamming me with emails after checking out though so make sure you give them a throwaway email address.
