This hotel is a 9 min walk to the White House! We had out 1.5 month old with us. We felt safe and walked the area often. Nice hotel. The food options in the hotel are pricey. But plenty of locations walkable from the hotel (breakfast, lunch or dinner) We had a king suite and it was enough space for the 3 of use

This was a nice, clean, hotel in a great location. The only qualm I had was the upcharge, especially for room service, in which you were charged a service fee plus additional for any cutlery or plates needed. Food is dropped off in a paper bag, not standard room service you would anticipate with the associated charge. Else, my original statement still stands- this is a tried and true Hilton and you get the classic experience you come to expect and appreciate.

Great hotel, super clean and great staff. Only issue was that there is an automatic destination fee (you get a $25 food and beverage credit and a $10 Lyft credit per day), but we weren’t told about it at checkin and missed two days that we could have used (the credit doesn’t roll over and accumulate).
