Hilton Garden Inn Washington DC/U.S. Capitol
Most staff was great. The managers weren’t as welcoming. Hotel is fine but it didn’t feel like a Hilton Hotel. Felt a little dated. You could tell the carpets weren’t super clean. The color helped hid dirt and stains. Also, the AC didn’t work well.

Glover Park - Georgetown
The location of this hotel was great. Also, very walkable in the area. Grocery store is nearby, and other services. Particularly good if you plan to go to the National Cathedral. Very close to it.
