The rooms were large and well maintained. The desk staff, shuttle driver and restaurant staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome. The Potomac Bar staff however were not only slow but rude. I usually tip well but here it would be a mistake. Everybody can have an off night but here it was consistently bad.

The place is really old but well maintained. The location is good, right across the street from an entrance to the Crystal City underground and Metro. The front desk staff is friendly and helpful, the waitstaff and bartenders not so much. Food is mediocre at best. The "pool" is a complete joke. Not much bigger or deeper than a hot tub. Maybe just call it a hot tub. No fans in the tiny bathrooms either.
