Hamilton Hotel Washington DC
"Reasonable hotel in a great location but the room was dated and not cleaned very well. They did not automatically replace coffee, cups or toilet rolls ( had to ask). Room lighting was also poor and the old air conditioning unit was noisy. It was OK for a few days sightseeing."
