Thompson Washington DC, part of Hyatt

The basement fitness center was well equipped with a Peloton, a tred and two ellipticals. It was actually way more pleasant than most basement fitness centers, and was cleaned every day. I usually ran into the cleaning people. There are TVs, a good amount of weights and bells, and mirrored walls. I go to the gym at all the hotels I stay at and this one was a solid B+ for just being clean and feeling functional even though it's smallish and in a basement. The rooms are very nicely equipped with amenities and a good size. I appreciated the many plugs around the room, and that there was good counter space/places to put my makeup bags etc. I thought that the decor was very updated feeling and the integrated reading lights into the bed headboard were helpful. The rooftop bar, while no longer called The Anchovy Social, was pretty vibrant and had nice views. There is also a lobby bar which is open happy hour type hours, and the lobby has comfy chairs and is a nice place to meet. The Metro is less than a block away and we used it frequently. Small eateries are nearby in the Navy Yard (they have a Foxtrot across the street) and we even walked to all the Wharf restaurants (a must do--I particularly loved Ilili). Huge shout out to the cleaning crew--everywhere I went, they were friendly, seemed to be doing an excellent job, and were discreet. Our room always seemed to be cleaned at the right time while we were gone, they didn't keep knocking on the door asking when we wanted our room cleaned, and all the public areas always seemed so well-kept. I'm a bit of a clean freak, so this is important to me!
