Great Hotel Location
- March 2, 2008
- Rated 3 of 5 by
a traveler from Travelocity.com
The Hotel is very nice the Beds are very comfortable. The Staff was very nice. The Breakfast Buffet was exceptional, Note: If you want something prepared like eggs, omlets or pancakes you have to ask. We were not told of this until the third day. It is close to Union Station and the Metro so you can walk there and go anywhere you wish to go.
We slept well (Despite the Fire Station directly across the street) for the first three nights. On Saturday the hotel booked every available room to hundreds of College Frat kids. Some were intoxicated all were loud and having a good time from 8PM until we left at 6AM Sunday morning with no sleep. The Hotel Staff did nothing to try to quiet the kids down. They should have given us a free night since we did not sleep due to the noise of the kids and the elevator overload alarm going off all night long. They did not even offer.

Good hotel, but some serious shortfalls

I stayed for 3 days on business, and received a great rate through travel website. The hotel is located almost exactly between Union Station and the Capitol, and is easy walking distance to both. The hotel was clean, stylish and the staff friendly and helpful. The neighborhood is fine, but I was hassled by beggars every time I stepped out of the hotel after dark (there are at least a couple homeless shelters within a block or two). Valet parking is the only parking the hotel provides, and it's over $40/day - I paid $17/day at a lovely garage about a block away across the street (entrance on E Street between NJ Ave. & N. Capitol St.). The hotel restaurant serves fine food, but at exorbitant prices, even by DC standards. A salad and iced tea for dinner cost me over $25 - about the same for the soup & salad bar. There are no other restaurants in the area that I felt safe in walking to after dark. My room was very clean & comfortable with a wonderful king size bed, but the room itself was microscopic (the smallest room I have ever had in the US) and had no workspace whatsoever - no desk or any place to even rest a laptop. I ended up working on the bed, and strained my back and neck in the process. I will not stay here again - there are just too many other 4-star hotels in DC at the same price that have none of the setbacks outlined here.

Even A Wimp Would Like This Central Location

Agood clean hotel with an excellent location for walking to Capitol Hill or for accessing the entire city via the nearby Union Station Metro subway station. The hotel is expensive and the food at its restaurants is high priced, but again the location is excellent. Just expect to pay $4.00 for a cup of carry out coffee at the lobby snack bar.

Great Location

The location of this hotel is excellent. Only two blocks from the Capital and 1 block from Union Station. The only complaint I have is the line you have to wait in to eat your complimentary breakfast. The eating area doesn't have enough seats for the demand for breakfast in the morning. If you don't want to wait for food, eat before 8:30am.

Family Vacation - Christmas week in Washington, DC
- January 3, 2008
- Rated 5 of 5 by
a traveler from Travelocity.com
Hotel in a good location -- 3 blks from Capitol, 3 blocks from Union Station (trains & metro). Restaurant, service and security were very good. Gift shop with snacks & souvenirs in lobby, free newspaper daily, taxi service readily available. Comfortable beds and nice linens. No complimentary computers or laundry facilities for guests. Geared toward business travelers. Lots of families during this week and indoor pool filled with children each evening. Booked with online travel website to get the complimentary full breakfast buffet each morning, which was very good -- high quality and lots of variety. Easily accessible for handicapped. Doorman readily provided assistance. We felt quite safe here and the staff was very helpful.
