Expect to pay a premium...

Liked: The hotel's location is the biggest selling point as it is located a only few blocks away from the Capitol and the botanical gardens. You can get there by walking or by traveling via one of the many Lime scooters that are available for rent by mobile app on many street corner sidewalks (BYO helmet). The area is fantastic for walking with minimal traffic and Capitol police and roadblocks all around. The hotel facilities did have some nice upgrades and the staff was always around to help. There is a pleasant area downstairs to sit and have a coffee, tea or cucumber/mint water. The elevator and hallways are well maintained and the rooms have nice amenities.
Disliked: There is no free parking and street parking is difficult and may require a permit. Valet is $50/day - non-weekend. If you are bringing a dog that will be an extra $150. Tax 15.95%. Resort fee $34.79/night - I could understand if they had a pool or something really special, but a resort fee on top of an expensive stay is just irritating. The comforters were too hot and perhaps counterbalancing the cold AC. The bathrooms feel like they are in a bit of a maze with a sliding door. Our tub/shower had draining issues and the toilet was slow to flush. The modern sink was too big for the bathroom and was awkward to use with barely enough room to get your hand under and change from hot<>cold water. The breakfast was ok, but nothing special and the oatmeal was very watery. Lastly, there was a homeless guy just outside on the bench in the morning to the right as we left perhaps not the best greeter for arriving or departing guests.

Great stay

Liked: The service was great, the staff was 10/10
Disliked: The a/c in the room was off bases on the weather but we live in Miami we are used to. But it was not a big deal just a little hot at early night.

Great stay for our family,...

Liked: The staff were very friendly, especially David at the front desk (he was so nice to our boys). They were renovating the type of room we had booked so they upgraded us to a suite and called in advance to let us know and make sure that was ok. The location is perfect. It was close to a metro stop and the Capitol/Library of Congress. Good restaurants nearby. They have bikes you can use on a first come a first serve basis. Coffee, tea and water in the lobby at all times. It was a great experience for our family.
Disliked: The continental breakfast left something to be desired. The French toast was still frozen in the middle and if you showed up past 8:30am it looked a little picked over. But it is included so at least there was something offered.
