Good hotel choice
We stayed at the Washington Plaza for 3 nights in September. We found the rooms very clean and comfortable and slept very well here. It is well located and maybe a 20min walk or so to the Washington Mall. We also walked to Georgetown which didn't take that long, perhaps 30-40mins. Only slightly disappointing thing was that the pool was closed (it closes after Labor Day). Given that it was still warm in the city in late September it would have been nice to have a swim after a day out walking in the sun! We didn't eat at the hotel but found a number of places to eat nearby. We had breakfast at the Corner Bakery on 14th st which we liked. We really enjoyed Washington DC and would recommend this hotel.
