Worst - National Harbor. Totally obnoxious, arrogant sales people who turn hostile when it becomes obvious you are not going to purchase anything.
Best - Very recently at Old Town Alexandria, which is about 8 miles from home. The sales rep, Omar, was very new and knew very little about Wyndham but was a great talker of Afghan heritage. I have experience in Pakistan so we talked about that for a while. My wife had many Afghani students when she taught ESL for years and that sparked more conversation and we moved on to Afghan food, specifically Afghan rice. Omar lives about three miles from us, we swapped addresses and the next week, he dropped off a 10 lb. bag of Afghan rice. We never said a word about Wyndham, got our restaurant card, had a nice dinner that night at the Chart House down on the river. Sweet!
