That would allow a nice walk across Lafayette Park afterward, for drinks or dessert on top of the W. (Call and get a reservation for that, if you want a good seat with the view.)
Oval Room is very Washington, D.C. Lobbyist stuffy. Lots of people looking around to see who is looking at them. It's actually kind of funny to watch how people look past the person they are talking with. I've been there many times. I was a reporter.
