You get what you pay for
At about one-half of what you would pay for a downtown Washington D.C. hotel, the Georgetown Holiday Inn is a bargain. The staff is friendly and helpful, taxis are convenient and nothing is that far away.
On the downside, the restaurants are God awful, the wallpaper in my bathroom was peeling, and a light fixture seemed to be hanging by the grace of a screw. The exercise facilities are disappointing, although there is a pool. In sum, this is a relatively inexpensive hotel in an expensive city where at the Holiday Inn you are not paying for four star amenities. With that in mind, I'd stay again.
