Tidewater Region Cheap Vacations

Loved the late checkout!

Apparently, "Deluxe Room, 1 King Bed (Sky Level Premium King)" is a made-up room that Hotels.com uses in their description, rather than something you can actually get at Hotel Washington. When I checked in, I was told we were on the 3rd floor (definitely not "Sky Level"). That was annoying, so when I asked, the front desk worker moved us to a room on the 5th floor- closer to the sky but didn't feel "Sky Level" either. Nothing felt "Premium" about the room- everything was pretty standard. The location certainly was not premium. We were directly in front of the elevator, which meant you heard people coming and going all night. I'm pretty sure the room was smaller than the square footage listed on the Hotels.com website. The water pressure was terrible. The wallpaper in the bathroom was very awkward (doodles of different political cartoons and a lady's face peeking through the middle... weird). I did appreciate the bottles of water (included with the service fee) and the $8 daily credit for a couple of items near the front desk ($4 can of soda or $4 pack containing 4 Oreos).

The Riggs is a beautiful, luxurious property that's perfectly located for walking to museums and sites. The staff are amazing - kind and engaging, and always on hand to assist in any way. The rooms are beautiful with upscale amenities and very, very comfortable beds. The on-site restaurant offers unique, delicious plates for appetizers and meals. Super clean, amazing architecture and upscale amenities make this a definite return!

They used some deodorant in the room, and it made me allergic. The smell was really strong, but opening the windows helped. The front desk staff was super friendly and helpful! We bought breakfast, and it was worth it!
