The shower did not work properly so the water came out as a drizzle, the room cards did not work on half of the elevators, the beds were hard. The secret service had a room on our floor I guess a good thing? Overall it was okay. Would I stay there again? Probably not

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Front desk staff was efficient but not very friendly upon check-in. It was our first time in DC and it would have been helpful to be able to ask for some input / recommendations but it's definitely not approachable. Checked into the room to find the refrigerator not working. Huge hairball on the bathroom floor. Almonds scattered on the floor under the desk. Was more than obvious this room had not been cleaned after the last guest left. If I was paying $99 a night for her room I would expect this, but it over $300 this was totally unacceptable. I was texted during my stay to see if everything was okay I responded no, and there was absolutely no follow-up. Definitely would not recommend

Won't be coming back

I was given the noisiest room facing the train tracks, with windows that were sealed and couldn't be opened. The space under the headboard remained uncleaned for 3 days. Worst of all, the staffs were the rudest I've encountered at any hotel, including all IHG properties I've stayed at.

Our room was located on the back side of the property. There are trains that run rather regularly on those tracks and it's hard to fall asleep. The location was great! Only 2 blocks to the Air & Space Museum and the National Mall. Too bad most of the buildings were locked down due to "lack of funds."
