I liked clean rooms but I did not like fragrance in the room because I am allergic to odors and had to take my meds for allergies.

Breakfast was not included however, the coffee and pastry bar were delicious. The staff was so pleasant while performing multiple duties. Our room was very comfortable with a great view of the Washington Monument. The rooftop and whiskey bar were such a wonderful addition. We attended an event at the Capital One Arena and were able to walk less than one block to the event. The Gallery Place Metro Station is literally right across the street. Walgreens is located just a few steps from the hotel for any needs you may have. All staff were very pleasant and accommodating to our every needs. Great destination hotel. We will definitely book again for any DC visits.

it was a short walk from the train station. and a short walk to the nearby venues that i was in town to visit. and while not as spacious as the big name hotels, it was big enough to not feel cramped. so all in all, things were good.
