Review of The Ritz Carlton, Pentagon Cit...

Needed a place to stay 1 night in DC and needed so...

Needed a place to stay 1 night in DC and needed something close to Arlington. This Ritz fit the bill.

Located 10 min from DCA and 15 min from Arlington (Traffic dependent). The Ritz is built into a hotel so not a typical freestanding hotel. Heater area for the cool nights as you wait for ubers is nifty, and valets are very friendly. Also, metro right next to the hotel as well is a plus!

When you walk in you see a small restaurant / lounge with a decent amount of service, then a small checkin counter and elevators. Not a large or luxurious lobby, but again only here forn business so I didn't mind.

Rooms were typical Ritz - decently appointed, older style furniture but doesn't look worn. Could probably use a renovation in the future but gets the job done. Bathroom is luxurious and spacious, and bed supremely comfortable. View wasn't too bad either. No issues with wi-fi, and no noises so sound isolation is good (the fact I got a junior suite probably helped as well).

Best part is its very affordable - so not the best Ritz I've been to but good for the price.
