“This property seems to aim for Parisian elegance in the heart of D.C., yet the execution appears inconsistent based on what I've gathered. While the location near the White House appeals to business and leisure travelers alike, reports of service lapses and dated decor raise questions about its five-star claim; one hopes management addresses these shortcomings to truly deliver on its promise of luxury.”
