2 reviews for Embassy Suites Chevy Chase Pavilion
I had to stay here for a week for business and as far as second homes go, it could have been a lot worse. However, things to know before you go:
- the handicapped accessible suite, while enormous, has a very low showerhead and a very high toilet.
- while an iron and ironing board are provided, good luck finding a convenient outlet.
- the breakfast is free, but after about 7:30 inundated by screaming kiddies on donut/hot chocolate/froot loop sugar highs. Go early. The home fries are terrible, and the scrambled eggs are dry.
- There are limited TV stations and no channel guide for those addicted to comcast
- the internet costs either $5 for 4 hours or $10 for 24 hours
- The air conditioning is incredibly loud and when it comes on will jolt you out of a sound sleep
- the water takes a while to get hot
- the front desk staff are only moderately helpful for things like directions and what's in the vicinity. (Especially Emily)
- The elevator is sloooow
- a 20 oz soda from the vending machine is $2.
- if you choose not to have maid service they will call you and tell you they tried to clean your room but there was a sign on the door and if you need anything, you can call the front desk. Duh.
- The beds and pillows are incredibly comfy. Get ready for a really good night sleep (if you turn the AC off)
- you can plug your ipod into the alarm clock and listen through its speakers
- the hairdryer is pretty low power
- in general, its nice and quiet, not much sound transfers between rooms.
- The rate is around $280 on average a night. Pretty steep for what it is but there are a lot of extras that make it good for a long haul.

You know what sucks? Watching a football game on a slightly fuzzy TV screen. You know what really sucks? Having to watch that game also on mute because the sound on the TV is crappy. I usually love an Embassy Suites. I certainly get too excited about the breakfast spread. But the bad television added insult to injury as I watched the Eagles' and Jeff Garcia's fairytale season come to an end.
