I must admit I have never been all the way from New York to Washington DC on
either the Night Owl or the Executive Sleeper, but I have often travelled on
the Night Owl by coach from New York to Metropark.  Since I usually go into
NYC by driving to Metropark and then taking NJTransit or Amtrak from there
into the City, the Night Owl works out to be a very convenient train to get
home on after a late party in NYC. 

Of late, they have started using Amfleet II coaches on the Night Owl, and
Amfleet II equipment is usually much smoother than the Heritage equipment
when it comes to running at 90+ MPH.
