British soldiers didn't dine at Rhodes when burning the capitol
This is a popular myth/error. They dined at Mrs. Suter's boarding house at 15th and Pennsylvania. Mrs. Suter's had been at Rhodes Tavern until only two months before the burning at Washington (hence the confusion), but by the time the British arrived, Rhodes Tavern was the Bank of Metropolis, so the British couldn't have eaten there or stayed there. For more on this read Anthony Pitch's "The Burning of Washington."
