Everyone Should Have a Paul

Although we've stayed at other Hilton Hotels, this was our first stay at this particular Hilton location. We were unsure what to expect from a building located in the heart of the city. Paul, our Front Desk Staffer, saw to our every need and was certain to welcome us back to this location. We expect to return the next time we're in the area.

Rooms are not as advertised

We booked a room with a King sized bed for 4 night stay via Hotels.com. When we arrived we noticed the bed was not a King sized bed, we contacted the front desk thinking we were given the wrong room. Then the hotel staff and manager on duty informed us that the hotel did not have any rooms with 'KING' sized beds, but they called the rooms 'King' sized (also not an appropriate description). We asked could we get a room with a double queen bed, and the hotel staff gave us another room. That room had a similar situation where the beds were not actually 'Queen' sized but the room was a 'queen' size. This was misleading and we cancelled our reservation and found another place to stay. The staff was friendly and the hotel was clean, but we were not happy with being mislead and not getting what we reserved and decided not to stay. We got issued a full refund.

We orginally booked a king bed in a specific room and were given a queen in a different room. Website says pool closes at 10 but they actually closed at 8. Our room had a smell to it that smelled like poop or backed up toilets all weekend. And our sink was clogged with just water and took a few minutes to go down whenever the sinks were run. Shower pressure was very low. The staff was very friendly so thats a positive. Lobby looked clean. But would not recommend and wont be staying at this location again

The pool closes at 8. Its in DC, most people either work or are here for the mall. So by the time you eat dinner at 5 or 6. The pool is closed. It needs to stay open at least to 11pm

Conveniently located in the NoMa area of DC. Potbelly’s Sandwiches is right next door, and the metro station is about 1.5 city blocks around the corner. Rooms were adequate for space, but it would’ve been nice to have more than just an office chair along with the two queen beds. Beds were comfortable. Shower had a tub. TV was modern and included a guide channel, plus sleep mode and wake-up alarm mode. Key cards are used and for Hilton Honors members, you can also use the virtual key card on the app. Breakfast is a buy-up option and well worth the $36 per day we paid for 2 people - the breakfast includes unlimited coffee & fresh juices, and is all you can eat from the hot and cold bars, plus continental grab and go options (e.g. pastries, muffins, etc). Note: there are no ready-made “go bags” for breakfast, but you can ask for a clamshell to go box.

Wasn't happy about the overall experience. Check in with Paul was awesome super helpful. Got up to our room we didn't have a shower curtain, no luggage stand, very little water pressure, very little hot water was the worst. Then went for dinner in the restaurant had to wait a very long time, the was no cook or server... the lady that was there was very pleasant and apologetic about the wait. The dinner we recieved was NOT worth $130.... was very upset about that. Usually the Hilton hotels are over the top nice but this place needs some attention... hopefully if we stay there again things will change.

Panhandlers approached us immediately upon arriving. The rooms are a bit dated. But they were clean. No soap near bathroom sink, and I didn’t get ANY of the "extras" I had requested. The bottled water in the room are $5.00 each! Only a bad QR code for their restaurant, no usual welcome book/binder. You need your room key card to take the elevator. Ice machines are hard to find and only on floors 4 and 6. The pool and hot tub were filled with unsupervised kids, rough housing and screaming. And it closes at 8pm. For everyone. The restaurant closes at 10pm. No room service. The food was amazing, but expensive! The valet parking was expensive. The amount of tax I paid on everything at the hotel was insanely high! DC traffic is insane and we wound up taking Ubers to get around. At checkout they said we could've left our car until 3pm, but we had already requested it. The front desk staff and restaurant staff were always nice, though it seems like they could both use more help. I'm not certain I would stay here again, everything considered.
