Mar 19, 2025

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities

Dislikes: Posted earlier about in room coffee machine--did not use as there were black and brown flecks that consistently appeared with every cup of hot water; machine definitely should be replaced or rinsed with vinegar or diluted bleach solution; who knows what was in there. My room faced a major street with traffic noise and sirens 24/7. Bring ear plugs. The bathroom space is tight, but will do for use for 1 person at a time, if traveling with others. Likes: There is a coffee stand in lobby, "The Grind" where one can also buy pastries, drinks, and snacks. It closes mid-afternoon, so if one desires coffee in the afternoon, no luck here. There is a gift shop across the way with snacks, drinks, ice cream, and sundries. The property is older, as one can see from the display near the elevators about the Hilton's role in historical events. Room was spacious, clean, no odors, carpet stains. The housekeeping staff on my floor (9th floor) were fabulous and pleasant. Although I did not require housekeeping services every day, I was able to get extra supplies as I needed them; good climate control to regulate to one's comfort; water in shower heats up fast; in-room refrig was convenient. (no in room microwave). Hotel is near the White House and within walking distance to many of the national monuments and Smithsonian museums. Taxis are readily available in front of the hotel. If you forgot to pack anything, a drugstore is next door.

The restaurant did not even say what was available and made me order the costliest food. The same was true with the bar. The shower curtain was not up to the standard. Overall, the space was overly rated and was the costliest.
