Hamilton Hotel Washington DC
Our stay was really nice, the location is amazing! We were supposed to have received a room upgrade through our benefits but had a view of a brick wall. The property is really nice, especially around the holidays (they had everything decorated so beautifully). We could not eat onsite at the hotel ...

The room was clean, but the sleepsofa was not to be slept upon. The breakfast was nothing to write home about. The location was excellent as it was near to my family's home and DC notable attractions.
