My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were spacious, bright, and well-designed, but there was a broken chair that needed attention. The service was a bit of a hit or miss—a mix of extremely accommodating and professional behavior along with some abrupt responses. The location was special, right by the Capitol and within walking distance of various attractions and dining options. The dining experience was quick and enjoyable, though communication about serving could be clearer.
