9/10 Wonderful! (1,084 reviews)
I have not one complaint about hotel. Staff was great. Very clean and resturants in hotel were great with wide selection of food. Couple blocks from the front of white house.
Alot of great restuarants surronding hotel and metro was 2 blocks away. And Michigan beat Maryland in football.
