Holiday Inn Washington by IHG
"When I washed my hands, brown water came out of the tap, which is unacceptable. In addition, the room smelled damp throughout my stay, making it feel unpleasant and poorly maintained. I was very disappointed with the overall condition of the room and expected a much higher standard."
