This is a small, fine hotel, in a neighborhood that claims fine hotels...but I've found most of them busy, high-status, univiting - the Jefferson is simply a fine, small hotel...staff, service, rooms (including the small public rooms), restaurant for a light supper were all perfect. I plan to stay there again when I'm next in DC.

The Jefferson is an excellent hotel. However, service was poor due to the staff's open use of cell phones; on more than one occasion, staff did not respond adequately because they were distracted by their cell use. Surfing the net. This behavior occurs later in the evening and at night
