The Armor of God
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
18 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.

I recently completed a five-day stay at the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Washington DC - Crystal City, and it was a very pleasant experience overall. The hotel is quite elegant and boasts a fantastic, central location that makes getting around Arlington and DC very easy.
The Highlights:
Spacious Rooms: My room was notably large and kept very clean throughout my stay.
Lovely Views: One of the best parts was the view from the room—absolutely lovely to wake up to.
Excellent Service: The staff is incredibly friendly and provides great service from check-in to check-out.
A Minor Drawback:
Outdated Decor: While the room was comfortable, you can definitely feel that the decoration and the room itself are a bit old and outdated. It could use a modern refresh to match the elegance of the rest of the property.
Despite the older feel of the rooms, the quality of service and the prime location make this a solid choice for a trip to the area.

I'm giving one star for the hotel's location, which is in a good area with everything nearby, but the hotel itself is old, dirty, and outdated. The rooms are in poor condition, there's no microwave (which is a basic amenity), and the shower is clogged. There's a damp, musty smell in the room and cockroaches. The staff aren't very friendly. Overall, it's a hotel I would never return to.
doy una estrella por la dirección del hotel que esta en buena area todo queda cerca, pero el hotel esta viejo sucio y antiguo las habitaciones estan en mal estado no hay microondas que es los mas basico y y el shower tupido, hay peste a humedad en la habitación y cucarachas las personas del establecimiento no son muy amigables en modo general es un hotel que jamas pienso regresar.

Customer Service 5 Stars; 1 star removed due to rooms a little outdated but the view was AMAZING and all of the "snack/kitchen" areas closed so your only options is bottle water and the cookies from the desk. My best friend we gave her a 50th birthday party in the ballroom called Momentum ballroom. Josh the manager of security ensured our vehicles were safe to bring decorations and other items up to the ballroom. Marcos checked us in to our actual private room in 1 minute. Casey the beautiful African American manager she was gorgeous and so was her amazing energy she ensured everything was perfect for my best friends' 50TH.. thank you all Double Tree

The building is very old. It is not a comfortable feeling to stay in the room. No regular Hilton breakfast. Almost no water pressure in the sink (asked the neighbors, they had the same problem). The bathroom happened to have not enough towel racks (only one but inconvenient). The fridge did not work. Shower gel, shampoo, and conditioner are low quality products or extensively chemical. It was very difficult to regulate the heat (too hot, or too cold). No additional blankets in the room. The view from the window was great and spectacular. The prices in the main market in the hotel were ridiculous (very expensive). The staff in the hotel was very polite and responsive. The closet doors are heavy and inconvenient (accidentally pinched my fingers between the handle and the other door when opening, the doors could not be closed properly). The safe did not work. The everyday room cleaning was great. The furniture in the room is old (like 15-20 years old) and not interesting decor.
