a reasonable stay

friendly staff great location delicious sandwich slow elevators dirty carpet limited climate control
the staff greeted me with a smile. they were able to store my luggage while i went to an appointment. the hotel location is great, very close to the smithsonian art museum. i had a tasty egg, cheese, and croissant sandwich and hot coffee.
the elevators seemed slow, and one was possibly not working. i noticed the carpet looked dirty at the front desk area. the climate control only goes down to 67 fahrenheit. this made sleeping hard for me.
