Not the worst

rooms feel small and cluttered, the bathroom is so small and with two people your body is just touching so much of the curtains and the door and the toilet and then the sink. pillows aren’t soft at all, super flat and the comforter was very thin. i loved the parking garage and the set up of that, very convenient and safe but beyond that, snack selection was lacking and amenities were lacking as well.

I arrived late morning and was able to check in early which gave me time to do some work in my room before heading to meetings in the afternoon.

Very clean hotel with and the location is super convenient. Walkable distance to the metro station and several restaurants and coffee shops. I used the gym several times and appreciated the water refill stations. The only issue was that the elevators and hallways had a musty smell and were considerably warmer than the lobby. The room, however, had no smell which was more important. One of the elevators was closed for maintenance during our stay which resulted in longer wait times and crowded rides but I'm sure that's temporary.

Property is poorly maintained. Rooms showing age. And Expedia double charged me and won’t refund me so I’ll never use them again either.

Everyone has a damn attitude here. Front desk women (both morning and afternoon) are just nasty and can’t even have the decency to look you in the eye or fake a smile. NOBODY PICKS UP THE PHONE, so good luck if you ever need anything or just have a question. Same nasty, rude women probably also refuse to answer calls unless for new bookings (my guess). Airport van driver also rude because he was stupid enough to not recognize the color of my luggage and got mad at me. Make it make sense. It is mediocre at best. The property is run down in a mediocre area of this crystal city place which I would never visit if it was not for a business trip. Places like these often can be more pleasant if staff were not so blatantly miserable with their jobs. I would not stay here again.
