1. Overall, it's not bad -- but there are much better (Westin, Fairmont, Willard, Mayflower etc) in DC for the price.

2. Good bed, good linens but bad towels.

3. Not dirty, but it is easy to see that they are not very concerned about having high cleaning standards (powder, dishes on the floors, badly washed glasses and towels).

8. This was especially bad since the tap water was not drinkable as it smelled like pool water--so we had to rely on the minibar water which always required another special call to the front desk to deal with.

9. The entrees also were mediocre-bordering-on-bad.

10. It manages to never be so bad in any area that it's a huge problem, but there is a lot of room for improvement.
