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.
