On the Potomac

Coffee and tea service in the room was nice. The river view was beautiful, even in the rain. Loved how they provided a refilable filtered water station and 2 glass bottles for our use in the room. Much better than water bottle waste. The linens and pillows were comfortable, but the mattress was too firm for my liking and I woke with hip pain during the nigjt. Staff were very friendly.

I think the mice at my receipt.

Paid a deposit for this stay via hotels.com, i showed the front desk clerk my receipt, i showed management my receipt, all from hotels.com and they never ever credited my account. The bank will do it no worries, last stay there. This place has crated in quality over the last few years. I've held my tongue about the mice in the restaurant for a while, so now you know.
