Hamilton Hotel Washington DC
It was okay. I’ve stayed here on several occasions and I feel like the rooms are getting worse rather than better. Service and staff are great but the room was lackluster.

Room was nice. Odd how much they charge you for miscellaneous things that I thought should have been included. Otherwise good. Nice view.
