There were continuing issues in the room- toilet not being able to flush, 3 reading lights didn’t work, the coffee maker didn’t work, the shower pull didn’t always work. It lacked restaurants around the area. While it was close to the national mall and the metro, I wouldn’t stay again.

This was a good hotel as close to the National Mall as you can get. The staff was friendly and helpful and the rooms were clean. Property is a little old. No venting in the bathroom and the walls were a little thin. The advertised breakfast buffet was not included in the price and the dining was expensive.
