“OK with some issues”

Four Points by Sheraton Washington D.C. Downtown

3/3 found this review helpful

I have stayed at this hotel a few times over the last few years and it has lots of positives: the staff is friendly and helpful, the property is convenient to many areas of DC including China Town, it's close to two Metro stops (McPherson Square and Metro Center), and is pretty reasonably priced for Washington. The hotel has free Internet access (at a lobby kiosk and in the rooms), a fitness center, and an on-site bar and restaurant. I did find the bar was a bit pricey, though. A glass of Robert Mondavi wine (not exactly premium stuff) was $9.

Rooms have safes big enough for laptops (a great feature), free internet access, the usual amenities including hair dryer and coffee maker, and a comfy bed.

There were a couple of glitches during my most recent stay. The wall unit air conditioner was fairly loud and, despite a sticker saying, "The controls for this unit are located on the wall", they weren't. They were underneath the panel on the unit with the sticker on it.

A far more egregious issue was the water temperature. When I got to my room (#829) after dinner, the shower had plenty of piping hot water. However, at 7:30 the next morning, the water was barely lukewarm. Not ice-cold, but not exactly the pleasant experience I'd hoped for. When I told them about this at checkout, the desk personnel were very apologetic and promised to have maintenance look into it.

Given that enough hot water in the morning is pretty basic, I'd definitely talk to someone at the hotel and make 100% sure the water issue had been addressed before staying here again. Otherwise, it's a solid three to four on the T/A scale.

“Fine for a short stay”

Four Points by Sheraton Washington D.C. Downtown

1/1 found this review helpful

I stayed at this hotel for 3 nights for $80 a night booked on priceline. I didn't eat at the hotel's restaurant which was closed for refurbishment, but the room was fine with all usual amenities. The free wifi & in-room tea & coffee supplies were welcome and the staff was helpful & friendly. I left my luggage here for 3 nights while I went on a trip out of DC & they were only too happy to look after it for me. The hotel is fine, if a bit bland, but for $80 a night in DC it was good value, although it is a little away from many points of interest in DC. I'd probably stay here again at this price.

“STAY AWAY if you want good service”

Four Points by Sheraton Washington D.C. Downtown

2/2 found this review helpful

Overall this hotel was a negative experience. If all you are looking for is a clean hotel then this hotel will do. However, if you want anything else (friendly service, room service, working amentities) avoid this location. After three calls to the front desk our tv remained broken the entire time. The front desk only offered a "I'll call engineering" solution but nothing came of it. The main light in our room was not working. Room service was another bad experience. They were out of deli meat and most desserts. The cheeseburger we ordered medium well was raw. A call to room service complaining ended up with an "uh, oh." No offer to remove it from the bill or bring something else. For the price they charge for a sub par experience - - they should be ashamed. Spend your money elsewhere.

“Really good Four Points with clearly better service”

Four Points by Sheraton Washington D.C. Downtown

4 of 5 stars
Montreal, Canada

3/3 found this review helpful

Four Points generally offers good hotel-business-category rooms: desk, chair, comfortable and inviting bed. Plus you get a free bottle of water.

This hotel is well located in Washington. Although a bit far (for walking) to the Mall, but provides easy access to transportation (public and tourist).

The service is a clearly better than most Four Points. You get warmly greeted outside, assisted with your lugages and helped to the front desk. There reception was warm, professional and quick. The lobby is stylish and inviting with confortable seating and an internet access.

The room was up to Four Points standard, which means a lot (typically better than most, I find). It was clean, reasonnably spacious. It probably was renovated not long ago. The ventilation is a bit old and has problem keeping your requested temperature.

The fitness center has an usual variety of apparels compared with other hotel. In front of each is a personnal TV. Cool.

Breakfast at the restaurant was ok, but menu had a rather small choice.

In all a smart, confortable choice in Washington. It stands the comparison to more expansive hotels. Like most Four Points.
