Todo bien salvo el personal.
Pros:

La habitación era bastante amplia
La zona en la que esta el hotel está muy bien

Cons:

El personal no explicó bien nuestra estancia, nos hizo pagar un pago que aún no sabemos si era parte del pago del hotel o del 'security deposit'.
Fuimos en coche y pensaban cobrarnos 65$ por una noche solo.
No tienen desayuno

Great value and location.
Pros:

I loved the location to GW and Georgetown. We walked to graduation in Foggy Bottom and to our dinners in Georgetown. It was also close to our son’s apartment. Amazing and great place to stay if your kid goes to GW or Georgetown. I wish the room had more lighting. Other than that it was excellent! Such a friendly staff.

Cons:

The lightning in the room.

Bardzo wygodny pobyt z wieloma udogodnieniami w doskonałej lokalizacji.
Pros:

Wygodny, przestronny pokój w doskonałej lokalizacji. Stacja metra oddalona 4 minuty pieszo, a do Białego Domu i najważniejszych pomników można dotrzeć pieszo do 30 minut. Pokój wygodny, duża łazienka. Personel bardzo miły, codzienne sprzątanie i wymiana ręczników. Wi-Fi działa bez zarzutu. Możliwość skorzystania z płatnego parkingu, choć liczba miejsc ograniczona.

Cons:

Przydałoby się odświeżyć pokój, gdyż rzucają się w oczy pęknięcia, obicia. Drzwi do pokoju ciężkie i blokujące się (trzeba je pchnąć barkiem, aby otworzyć). W łazience przydałby się wentylator. Dostępny parking dosyć drogi - lepiej skorzystać z aplikacji Spot Hero, gdyż można znaleźć w pobliżu hotelu zdecydowanie tańsze opcje.

Good location and amenities, but comfort and service issues hurt the stay.
Pros:

Great location. Spacious room. Well-equipped with a hair dryer, compact refrigerator, iron and ironing board, coffee machine, TV, complimentary water, and coffee/tea.

Cons:

Daytime factory noise outside. Bathroom unsafe—no grab rails, tub clogged drain. Thermostat locked; room stayed cold at 66°F. Multiple stairs to reach the reception and elevator, no luggage assistance. Staff couldn’t give basic local tips (e.g., breakfast). The front desk repeatedly pushed Marriott Advantage and direct booking.

spacious room and superbe location for sightseeing
Pros:

The room was spacious (2 persons) with a walk-in shower. The hotel has a small shop for food and drinks and a nice sitting area beyond the shop. The location was great: 4 min to the metro station Fuggy Bottom with a direct metro (Silverline) to Dulles airport (45 min), access to two other lines, walking distance to Georgetown and the waterfront (15 min) and about 20-25 minnto the National Mall! Perfect for sightseeing! It is located in a quit street within the university quarter, coffeeshops and a hospital ariund.

Cons:

all fine
