Hotel was beautiful, I did makeup for a bridal party and Bryant helped me to my car, loaded it up and was super pleasant! The hotel was so clean, the bathrooms were in great condition! Everyone I came in contact with was super helpful and friendly

Great stay, go to hotel in the area. Staff at all levels is superb, hotel is clean/quiet/modern. Navy yard is a nice area to stay in when traveling to DC and location is perfect. Stayed here 2 times and next time I’m in the area it’ll certainly be my first choice!

We’ve stayed at this hotel probably a dozen times now with our dogs and each time is an enjoyable stay. The customer service is always top notch, particularly Bryant at valet serviced who was of great help as we were checking out. We’ll be back, thanks!
