This hotel is living off its name. What was a great and respected brand is now a dirty, dated and dilapidated hotel. In fact, it’s only a few notches away from being a motel.

Way too expensive overall in my opinion. $44 a night for parking is insane. Breakfast was great though. Rooms could use a hair dryer too.

It was a great place for the money. Half mile walk to Pentagon City mall and other shopping as well as a Central Market. The Metro is a block away but I love to walk. The hotel definitely needs a facelift. The lamps did not have USB ports but all in all the mattress was literally one of the best mattresses I have slept on so I was grateful for the sleep! It's not in the best area but it's not too sketchy either. Walking, I felt safe, going under viaducts to get to Metro, not so much.
