Great location for the mall
Two king sized beds was great for our family. Location was great as well. We easily walked to the Wharf for food and the mall is less than a mile walk. Felt safe walking at night. Coming from the airport on the metro was confusing because we didn’t understand the maze to get through to the hotel (left the station from the wrong direction), but pretty convenient after we figured it out.

Hotel was clean and appeared well taken care of. We were in easy walking distance of the National Mall and Smithsonian Museums. The area was clean and there were a fair amount of restaurants within walking distance, although we didn't check them out due to the rather cold temperatures. All in all, I would stay here again, I was also pleasantly surprised that the Valet was able to fit my truck in the parking garage, even though the hotel website said it was too tall.

Well located within walking distance of many of the important things to see in WADC. However, very limited option for dining in the hotel after a day of sightseeing. The bar/restaurant had limited menu & hours. Although they presented us with options for dining when we checked in, after a full day of sightseeing, we just wanted to dine in the hotel rather than find places outside. Also, very poor signage in the garage so we wandered through the bowels of the hotel to get to the lobby for checkin. The room was comfortable, but the fitness center had no barbells.
