“This resort truly impresses with its vast, well-maintained atrium and extensive activity options, especially beneficial for families and conventions. While rooms are consistently clean and spacious, the substantial size of the property can make navigation a challenge, and dining prices are notably high, suggesting a walk into National Harbor for better value. Nonetheless, the exceptional staff service, particularly in handling lost items, stands out, making it a reliable choice for events and getaways.”
