Comfortable for short stay

I booked a king size suite but for whatever reason it wasn't available when I arrived. We were given a double qn bed room with a roll away which was surprisingly spacious- full size. We didn't make a big deal about it because we were only staying 1 night and the location and free parking near DC made up for it. The room was very clean and spacious. As usual we weren't given enough wash cloths and towels but luckily housekeeping was outside in the hallway so they were able to provide some. Breakfast was pretty lame, fake eggs, no type of breakfast meat whatsoever. But overall served its purpose for a short stay.

Overall, our stay was nice. Our room 203 was spacious, above one of the car entrance facing the street. But it was quiet except for the humming of the AC. However, the room was at the very far end of the building, quiet but a bit of a walk to the elevator. Breakfast was good.

I would stay here again.

I would recommend staying here. The area is nice, the staff was friendly, and the room was spacious although the bathroom was very small. Breakfast was good & free - they had 2 waffle irons, bagels, okay donuts & muffins, eggs & sausage or bacon in the warmer, hard boiled eggs, cereal & oatmeal, but get there early because they ran out of some things like yogurt & fruit. Parking was free. It was a half hour away from the Zoo, which is why I stayed there. I would stay here again.

The hotel building structure is very special, with hotel rooms surrounding the parking lot. There're both covered and uncovered parking. The location is very convenient, unlike other DMV areas with confusing road map and traffic. It is very quiet inside of the building. A very good deal with the reasonable price.

This is a typical lower-tier hotel, similar to a Super 8 — definitely a 2 to 3-star property that shows its age and needs major upgrades. The rooms are dated, with old, worn-out carpet and a bathroom that features an outdated red heat lamp. My shower was broken upon check-in, but maintenance was prompt and fixed it right away. On the positive side, the bed was surprisingly comfortable, providing a good night’s sleep. The air conditioning in the hallways keeps those areas cool, though the in-room AC units are wall-mounted and not the most modern. The windows barely open, limiting airflow. Convenience-wise, the hotel offers: * Free parking * Close proximity to dining and bars(semi-walkable) * Easy highway access to I-395 * Budget & Avis car rental return on-site * Airport shuttle available (by reservation) * Gas station next door One downside is the frequent noise from ambulances passing by, but the **location is safe and priced reasonably for the area. If you're looking for basic accommodations with parking and a good location, this is a functional choice just be aware it’s an older, no-frills property in need of TLC

Check in was quick and easy. We selected this hotel for the free wifi, free parking and free breakfast. Able to park and take an Uber into DC with no problem. Checked out the next day and allowed to leave the car until 6pm. Great perk. Room was comfortable but outdated. Otherwise, no complaints.
