My stay was comfortable and the staff was excellent. The only issue I had was that I selected a room with the atrium view and the light remained on, so it looked as though it was SUNNY all day, even with the curtains shut.

Our stay was phenomenal . The hotel is gorgeous and the waitstaff front desk and the cleaners who monitor the rooms do a beautiful job. The area is super safe you do see some vagrants but is extremely close to food vendors and walkable by two blocks to union train station. It’s also walkable to the capitol about 20 blocks to the smithsonian’s It’s close to pubs. we will come back every year. it’s a wonderful hotel

Resort fees???
The stay was great until I checked out and was told I owed $111 in resort fees. I wasn’t aware of the fees, no amenities were provided and this needs to be revealed during booking and check in.

This is a well-appointed hotel in a good location in DC, right next to Union Station. The staff were very friendly and happily accommodated an early check-in, and held on to my bags for a few hours after check-out. The Atrium-view interior rooms look out at a hallway, so I'm not sure you could ever open the curtains in those rooms.

Overall, the property is good. It’s hard for me to gauge the quality for the price as I’m not used to staying in the DC area so I don’t have a good gauge of that. To me and in my experience, this seems pretty expensive for what you get.

The property is beautiful and my room was amazing - clean, spacious and well appointed. Unfortunately, the people at the front desk need more training and the woman that was “helping” the new hire assisting me was rude and extremely condescending. I would have left if my reservation was not prepaid.

I'd to point out Alejandro, Aseef (sorry if i spelled your name wrong) and RJ who really made us feel comfortable and happy.
