Grand Hyatt Washington

8/10 Good

"Great "

The Architect

4/10 Poor

"Good hotel but poor amenities. No pool, no vending. And poor security. My door lock requires my card to be repogrammed every few hours and the desk never asked for ID or to verify my room. They just programmed it for whatever room I told them. Would be very easy for someone to get staff to give them a key to another person's room. "
