a romantic getaway

food selection appealing menu

the team ensured i experienced the beauty of the city. it is ideally situated for visits to various landmarks (i especially loved the national portrait gallery). the wallace lounge bar offered an really good food selection, and i happily dined there each night. the menu was particularly appealing.

upon arrival, i noted the absence of readily available parking directly in front. perhaps clear guidance on nearby parking options could enhance the arrival experience.

cramped quarters dampened the stay

cramped room spatial limitations

the executive double room i booked proved small it was a tight squeeze for two people to move around freely. the bathroom felt particularly cramped i had difficulty shaving without bumping my elbows. while the location and staff were great these spatial limitations detracted from the overall experience i expected more room in this category.
