"Buen servicio"

Embassy Suites by Hilton Washington DC Chevy Chase Pavilion

8/10 Good

"A nice hotel conveniently located near Washington DC landmarks. The breakfast was very good and the atrium is impressive. Getting into the parking garage was difficult as there is a bus terminal stop and the buses kind of blocked visibility. Their engines were on throughout their stay which was noisy and as such annoying."
