Nice hotel, close to lots of things, walkable, clean, nice room. My only complaint is that there was someone fixing the sink (?) when I checked into my room, which severely scared me. It was almost 6 pm by the time I checked in, I’m not sure why a maintenance guy was in my room.

The hotel was nice, but getting into the parking deck and getting out was frustrating. Out shower was filling up with water while showering because even though we had the shower on the water from the spout was coming out as well. Otherwise it’s in a good location of walking distance to Adam Morgan.

Great hotel, COMFORTABLE BEDS, nice staff, clean, no complaints other than there is no microwave or small fridge in the king bed room.. not sure if other rooms have those amenities but the average room does not which was surprising. You don’t have to park at the hotel, if it’s a quick trip (less than a day) I would park across the street at the $15 for 10 hours or 30 max (24 hours) and save yourself some money as hotel parking is $54 for the night.

Likes-clean, safe area, walkable. Dislikes-lack of parking for guests, so I had to park off-site. The prices for dining/snacks in the hotel were high. Interesting that a high-end hotel didn't have fridges in the rooms. Some of the waitstaff were fairly indifferent. Although most of the staff were excellent. Slow elevators and no obvious walking to upper floor options. Room prices were a bit higher than the hotels in the area, but this hotel seems better than the others in the area. Last year I stayed at the hotel directly across the street, and their air conditioning wasn't working for the 4 straight days I stayed. All I got from them was a "sorry about that". I plan on staying at the Hilton again next year, but I need to figure out the parking.
