• The hotel was next to the Eisenhower Metro stop, which allowed us to get all over DC without having to rent a car.
• The front desk person was not very pleasant. Maybe he was having an off day.

“We loved the location because we wanted to be near a Metro stop. The hotel has a restaurant but it was pricey. There is a steakhouse nearby and a Starbucks. Also near the IMAX/movies. The room was clean and spacious. We would stay here again.”

• We liked the restaurants and lounge and the room.
• Some common areas are old and in need of renovation.

“Over all this was an unexpected pleasure, the hotel has had some major renovations and is continuing that program. The location could not have been better for my needs.”

• One block away from Washington Metro.
• There was a power outage and they did not automatically offer free breakfast.

“Clean, however I did not like the old feel of the bed linens. The bathroom was dated. Overall it seemed stuck in a pat decade, you can taste the use.”

• Location.
• Run down.

“After I checked in I came to find out the power was going to be shutdown from 8:00 am to 1:00 pm. Ridiculous.”

• Lobby was pretty but very noisy with an indoor pool filled with teens right next to it.
• Noisy teens in pool next to the lobby swimming was out.

“Ok to stay if you are a business traveler Ok if you want to be there with family and want a big pool available I saw nothing romantic about it they had to change the room because (even though I called the day before) that I am disabled and need special facility they gave me a much nicer room but no disability bathroom.”

• There was almost no smell. It seemed old but clean.
• No continental breakfast and it seemed about dated.

“I was pleased with the staff and cleanliness of the hotel. There was almost no smell in the lobby or room. The hotel seemed a bit dated and in need of updating, but it was still a pleasant stay.”

• I liked nothing.
• Dirty carpet, mold in the bath tub, leaking toilet, two small beds intend on large, dirty bar, outdated hotel overall, poor lobby. etc.

“I would not recommended this hotel to anybody, this facility needs to be renovated, closed, or paying money to the guest for staying there. Furthermore I clearly felt disappointed for my money. The Hotel staff was absolutely unwilling to provide me a different room. I even had the maintenance guy fixing the toilet at 11:oopm at night. However, I am staying 50-80 night a year in a hotel across the entire country, I am doing professional traveling worldwide for 12 years, but this hotel was by far the worse for my money.”

• Location was perfect right by the metro.
• Old, small bathroom.

“This hotel is older but it is still pretty nice. Room was clean and enough room. Bathroom was very small with no counter space. Perfect location for us within walking distance to the metro.”

• Convenient location for our travel plan and fair price.
• Our 1st room was by the elevator/ice machine; they moved us to a quieter room.

“We liked the free van service to Old Town and the driver picked us up promptly.”

• Metro station approx 1/4 mile away from hotel and the hotel staff was great.
• The hotel's location was the biggest problem, no restaurant or bar within walking distance.

“The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. When ever we needed something they were there to help, they even got us a room before our scheduled check in time. Over all, the hotel was a little better than average. The main problem the hotel was the location. It was located near a Metro station however there were not any restaurants or bars within walking distance of the hotel.”

• The hotel provided an indoors pool and gym.
• The staff wasn't that friendly, the food was moderate at best, and the overall feel wasn't that great.

“This hotel is perfect for a business traveler that's not expecting a lot and is only in town for a few days. The nicest part of the hotel is the indoor pool and the gym facilities. Other than that don't expect too much.”

• It was close to the metro.
• It was very old, the staff was unfriendly.

“Although close to a Metro station, that was and is the only positive about this hotel. Not only did the elevator play continuous 50s music but I think they did that because that is probably when this hotel was built. It is old and desperately needs to be remodeled. The staff was not helpful or friendly at all. The bed was uncomfortable and the bathrooms too small. The hotel smelled and felt just plain bad.”

• They need to update the bedding, I thought all Holiday Inns had, they have not.

“Hotel was okay. Hotel needs to upgrade its bedding. I thought all Holiday Inns had upgraded their bedding, they have not. You could smell the pool's chlorine in the front desk area.”

• Front desk went out of the way to help us.
• Pool was too cold, Very limited movie selection.

“They gave us a nice room on the 9th floor and it was a non-smoking room as I had requested by phone. Our floor was very quiet. The beds had very thick mattresses and were comfortable. The hotel seemed older, but was in good shape. It was very easy to find and near the Eisenhower (yellow) metro station and Mount Vernon. Our three kids ate free at the breakfast buffet every morning which had eggs, bacon, sausage, French toast strips, cold cereal, Danish, whole fruit and several types of juice. The hot food was mediocre, but overall not a bad buffet. You could also order from the menu if you wished. They have an indoor pool, but it was too cold for us. Not a large cable TV selection and a poor movie selection (about 7 movies to choose from). One of the nicest front desks we've ever experienced!”

• I liked the convenience to the Metro.
• The shower water temperature fluctuated wildly. Not good.

“I stayed with my two teenage sons and we enjoyed our stay. We loved the nearness to the Metro. The only complaint - the shower water temperature fluctuated wildly.”
