“The recent renovation is immediately apparent, lending a fresh, upscale feel to the spacious rooms, which are thoughtfully appointed with ample outlets and well-designed lighting. Its proximity to Union Station and Capitol Hill places it squarely in a convenient urban hub, though I found the added facility fees to be an unexpected consideration. Still, the genuinely attentive service from staff, from doorman to housekeeping, made for a truly positive stay.”
