Top Shaw Hotel Reviews

Arlo Washington DC

10/10 Excellent

"Clean rooms, nice bathroom but no place to put any tolietries. Also no place to hang full length clothing- there was a bureau of sorts in the room with only a short space to hang items. Hotel in good walking location for visiting Capitol Hill or national mall, though not super close to many restaurants, and the restaurant in the hotel was only open for breakfast. Lobby on the small side but nice sitting area just off lobby. At check in, no one explained the extra deposit nor what was included / covered by the ‘resort fee’; we only learned about some of these ‘perks’ the next day when someone else checked in, and we were standing near the lobby desk. The roof top bar/lounge was unfortunately closed while we were there. Coffee shop in the lobby was a nice touch though pricey and a long wait. Overall a nice hotel but few amenities."
