Once again, we stayed at the One Washington Circle after having read the TripAdvisor reviews. It has a fantastic location, just a short walk to the Metro and GW University, and a slightly longer one to Georgetown/M Street/Wisconsin Avenue.The lobby staff was very accommodating, particularly the bellman/valet (who seemed to be there all the time: does this man sleep?) who was helpful and pleasant at all hours. The room was spacious, and the kitchen was well-appointed (although they could stand to have a couple of stools next to a high counter which was clearly designed to serve as an eating surface). We had two minor maintenance issues (bathroom door hinge was broken, and the TV clicker was inoperable), both of which were attended to in literally less than five minutes. The room was clean, the bathroom spotless, and the maid service above average. The outdoor swimming pool is good for not much more than a place to cool off on a typical DC August day, but really no complaints. The parking fee of $21.50/day (unlimited in-out) is very reasonable for the area. Finally, upon arriving home we discovered that we'd left some items in the room; a phone call was all that was required to get them back, literally the next day Particularly considering the cost ($116/night through CheapTix.com), this is a great little hotel, with lots of international charm courtesy of the clientele. I will definitely return.
