Capitol Skyline - Washington, USA 

OK
Posted: Sat, Jul 11 2009
I was a little disappointed but overall a decent hotel. Pros: Clean room, nice bed, big TV, free wireless Internet, easy walk to Navy Yard Metro Cons: Free Internet is slow, restaurant is not good, breakfast buffet for $14 was lousy, I should have gone across the street to McDonalds. Now don't go to McDs for a burger as there is a Five Guys just three blocks away. M ain street by hotel is skeezy but if you walk down I street toards McDs the area is newly developed and nice (this is where you will find Five Guys and Subway). Summary: Room was good, restaurant bad, slightly sketchy area but not as bad as some reviews suggest

Outstanding Value, Would Definitely Stay Again
Posted: Sat, Jul 04 2009
Desk staff were efficient and friendly; the room was quite spacious, comfortable bed, view of the Capitol from my window. Everything was spotless, plenty of hot water in the shower. The only drawback of the whole place was that for me, the air conditioning was never quite cold enough. It wasn't terrible, but I could have used a little bit more horsepower. You pay $20 a day to park in their underground garage, which is quite reasonable for DC. The hotel is just minutes from Reagan National, the Capitol, the Mall, etc. I drove to a restaurant near the White House and was there in about 10 minutes. There is a nice pool with a very lively (that is, noisy) pool party in the afternoon, so either get a room on the north side of the building or don't plan on an afternoon nap. There are 2 computers off the lobby for the convenience of guests. They are occupied by bored teens surfing the web, but if you sit and stare at them, they will eventually go away. A free shuttle leaves regularly from the hotel entrance to take guests to the Capitol, the Mall, and other sightseeing spots; however, you have to find your own way back. There is no metro very near the hotel, but a cab ride from Union Station was only $6.50. There is a MacDonald's just a stone's throw from the front door, where you can get breakfast. Nobody speaks English there, but you can get your hotcakes and sausage, orange juice, coffee, etc. There is a fitness center, though I never used it. The hotel is good for individuals, families, you name it. Prices are *very* reasonable for DC, the facility is clean and comfortable, and I would definitely stay there again.

Great Surprise

Both my Mom and I were SO happy with this hotel. The best part by far is their restaurant. Not only is the staff exceptional, the food is too. The rooms were very clean with new carpet. The staff in general were top rate. They also have computers you can use at any time, for free. Only drawback is that although it is only 1 mile to Capitol Hill, you can't walk it. You have to travel over a freeway. There is a one-way shuttle, though would have been nice to offer pick-up services. It is only half a mile to the Nationals stadium and close to a metro. We will no doubt stay there in the future.

Large, comfortable room in a great location!

The room was large and the beds were extremely comfortable. The staff at the front desk, gift shop and lounge were very friendly and helpful. The view from the room was great as we could see the Washington monument and the Capital. We were able to walk to the new baseball stadium for a game. The location was great. The dining room was being renovated while we were there so meals were available in the lounge. We definitely will stay again the next time we travel to DC!

Great place to stay!

We were very pleased with all aspects of our stay, from our room conditions to the gift shop. The Front Desk staff were courteous and very helpful whenever we had questions or needed any type of assistance; additionally, check-in and ?out was a breeze. The bar/restaurant staff were especially congenial and made us feel comfortable and at home. The shuttle driver was so friendly and seemed to thoroughly enjoy his job! We are leaving this ?recommended? comment on online travel website to relate our experience for others' consideration when they anticipate travel to D.C.
