Most of the "luxury" touches are wasted
We were 3 adults and 2 small kids in two adjoining rooms, which were spacious and had a nice view of the Wash. Monument. I was impressed that the trains passing 7 floors below didn't cause any disturbance. I was not impressed by the "complementary" ice which had to be requested (think TIP) rather than an accessible ice maker on the floor (turns out there was one right next door, but behind a door marked "staff only"). Various other amenities were likewise a mixed blessing: 3-4 ways of taking a shower or bath with multiple controls and hoses were confusing and let water splash everywhere. (Yeh, well, so what if it is all granite -- a simple shower head with straight forward controls like I had a couple of days later at a Sheraton work a lot better) In one room there was both a tub and a shower stall. The tubs in both rooms had hand rails placed where they were useless (lucky none of us needed them), and the soap dish in the stall was down by my feet instead of at hand level -- as if one would be seated in the shower stall. Also the 4 identical-looking tubes of shampoo etc. had wording so small and non-contrasting that it was almost impossible to read -- especially with the shower going. The dinky little round soaps were extremely hard to get out of the wrapper (some kind of "designer" brand I suppose). 
 Then there was the frig. so packed with the hotel's offerings that there was no room to put anything of ours. I suggest that guests take advantage of the CVS drugstore across the street for beverages and snacks to avoid high priced hotel fare. Yes, there was complementary coffee outside the restaurant area, but only in the A.M. You could of course have a pot brought up (another TIP needed), but why wouldn't all this fru-fru luxury include a coffee maker in the room? (The Sheraton had one!) 
 Likewise the pool and exercise room were not very comfortable (in July) or refreshing. I did enjoy the free fruit available in the workout room, however.
 The food was pretty good although not at the price -- despite a weekend discounted rate. The Jazz in the lounge, however, was really top notch, including a singer who sounded just like Ella Fitzgerald.
 The staff were helpful and unobtrusive -- very well trained indeed -- the best aspect of this overpriced hotel. 
Quite? Not quit! While the trains were no problem there were late night thumps, bumps, shouts and romping sounds from above for all three of our nights.
 This probably sounds like a lot of sour grapes -- and it is -- but beware that most of the "luxury" items aren't really worth it.
