Residence Inn Washington, DC /Capitol

Nice hotel, excellent location near to the Mall and attractions. Staff polite. Varied breakfast menu. However on arriving in our room, we found old/dried blood on the clearly unchanged bedsheets on the pullout bed for our children to sleep in - no problem for housekeeping to change the sheets but disappointing. Also, the WiFi was being upgraded and staff let themselves into each room to check the signal. No problem with that in itself, but we came back to the room after being out all day to find our door had been left wide open for anyone to wander in and steal our things. Thankfully nothing taken but again, disappointing. Would expect more from Marriott - booked here and probably paid a little more to have the reassurance of a well known brand/name.

Hotel is clean and modern. Staff was friendly and helpful... And engaged with us nicely. Short walk from the Bible Museum (just around the block) and the National Mall. View of the Capitol building within short walking distance.

Beautiful hotel, the room was nice and clean. The bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was good, There was a lot to choose from and the employees staffed at breakfast were so pleasant and helpful. The staff at check in could have been more pleasant, they weren’t very welcoming. The worst part of the stay was the parking. The space to get in the parking garage was so tight it was scary, fortunately we didn’t have to take the vehicle back out until we checked out because that was dreadful. You have to use your room key card to use the elevator which I thought was a great safety feature.

I picked the hotel because of it's proximity to the National Mall. I didn't expect much since the location was the selling point. I expected a small room with two queen beds and a TV. What we got was a suite that included a living room with a couch, desk, 50" flat screen TV. A kitchen with a full size fridge, two burner range, microwave, diswasher and all the glasses, plates and silverware. A seperate bedroom with two queen beds and another 50" TV. The bathroom was also large and very clean. Breakfast is included. Not gourmet, but at least a good variety of eggs, sausage, waffles, fruit, toast, cereals, oatmeal etc. Parking was an extra $47 per night but they do let you keep your car in the garage until 4pm the day you check out. This made sightseeing the final day much easier. Our kids loved the pool and hot tub. We also were happy to see a laundry room available in case we needed it. Another nice service is grocery shopping. Turn in your list in the morning and the staff will have it in your room by 4pm that day. The ability to eat breakfast at the hotel, lunch out on the town and then dinner in the room really cut the food expenses for our family. The hotel expense was well worth it. Finally, all the staff was so pleasant. Every person we encountered said hello, wished us a good day. Whoever manages this place does a stellar job. Bravo. We'll definitely be back when we travel to Washington D.C.

All of the staff were so friendly and the service was wonderful. Our room was missing a hair dryer and they brought one up immediately. Excellent hot breakfast included. The concierge hooked us up with a great night tour that included the Marine Corps Memorial. Only downside, there aren't many restaurants close by, there was a little shop with reasonable prices. We would definitely stay here again!
