Cons:

Being that they are currently renovating it took away from the ambiance of the hotel. It is dated in many ways, I would expect more from the Hilton.

An okay place for a family meet up. We will look for a newer property next time.
Pros:

Location was great. Atrium space nice for Happy Hour and breakfast.

Cons:

The entire facility seems tired and worn out. Desperately needs an overhaul. Hot grill breakfast was fine but the cold breakfast (quicker) options did not seem particularly healthy. Always a line at the bar for HH.

Had a very enjoyable 4 days at this hotel
Pros:

Rooms large, great shower. Buffet breakfast excellent. Free drinks in the evening a nice touch. Being opposite the metro station very convenient.

Cons:

Only very minor points - there could have been more hooks in the bathroom for towels.

It was great. We enjoyed breakfast and happy hour as well as the layout of the suites.
Pros:

The location across from the Metro was the biggest selling point. We used it daily to get back and forth to the city.

Cons:

When looking forward to using the hot tub after dinner, we found the door locked with no life guard available. We reported this to the main desk and the General Manager was immediately called. He bent over backwards to accommodate us and even called in a life guard from home to open the facility.

Would definitely return
Pros:

The location was fantastic! Staff were all kind and courteous. Rooms were suitable for our needs. Bartender was crazy fast!

Cons:

The happy hour was cool but I wish there was a better way to access it. The snacks were a very slow moving line.

It was a great stay.. I felt like I was at a spa and treated as such.
Pros:

The staff were so friendly. I liked that I could get free bottled water in the mornings when I started my day. I loved the evening snack hour. Loved the breakfast. The hotel was immaculate. It was an incredible location. Being able to hop on the metro and go into DC and back was a huge plus.
