Residence Inn by Marriott Washington, DC National Mall

The staff was helpful and amazing. The security is tight. You have to have your room card for the elevator and it will only open on the floor you stay on, the lobby, the parking garage, and the pool and stuff. The breakfast was good and the staff is super nice at breakfast. The hotel smelled good and clean from the moment we walked in and our room was also super clean. We got the room with the queen and the little kitchen. The kitchen was clean and stocked with utensils and pans for cooking. The style is nice. The room stayed nice and cool and it was 90degrees outside. The metro subway is right around the corner. We could also walk to the museums and some of the landmarks. Very happy!

Staff friendly particularly the security/doorman with long dreadlocks, a big guy, didn't catch his name. Spa great, location easy walk to museums and monument etc. New burger shop open next door has amazing Burgers. Not that we needed it, as only 1 night stay, but the full fridge and kitchen is handy. Family of 5 stayed in 1 room comfortably.

The location was in the middle of Sultanahmet and next to Grand Bazaar, so one can reach everything in the area just by walking. The hotel was nice and clean, the staff very kind and the chosen rooms spacy and nearly perfect.

Breakfast was fantastic! It was well-staffed and had many options for food. The oatmeal was perfection! The hotel overall was very clean and beautifully/tastefully decorated for the holidays. We also used the washer/dryers and that was great.

Yasmeem and Richard the concierge are the most amazing and nicest persons I've met at the hotel, they went beyond their duties to make me feel at home, and chatting with me once I came from the museums, awesome customer service. Concierge Richard gave me all the tips to visit DC told me stories about the museums, he has such a knowledge that you could spend years talking with him and never get tired, he told me told to visit the Museum of the Bible [the only one you have to pay]; and I recommend that you go with plenty of time, at least, 4 hours, take the tour Washington Revelations Sites and Scriptures IT IS OUT OF THIS WORLD!!!!!! so exciting. Coffee is really good. Because it was my birthday and my phone did not have signal on my room, they gave me an upgrade. Rest of the team are amazing too. Breakfast: every day you have something different and yummy. Uber: is expensive like a hell, I live in Florida/South Beach and I never spent so much $$$ (I was alone and I did not want to walk alone in a place that I don not very well) my stay was from December 22 to December 31. Souvenirs: are expensive too. This is my third time visiting Washington DC and, still I couldn't visit all the museums. Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum: please make reservations ahead your visit.
