  • Nothing.
  • Everything.

“Hotel was dirty and stinky. Its a old original style Holiday Inn that needs a lot of work in their common areas. Rooms were not bad. Lobby lounge was disgusting with a TV show playing. Too disgusting to even drink there. I went across street to another place.”

  • The bathroom.

“The room was dirty, dingy. The bathroom was in disrepair and the shower looked like it was ready to fall apart. They attached a towel rack to the wall using a board and left the ends unpainted and splintered after they cut the wood to size. It was kind of comical how bad it looked for a major chain hotel! Wall paper peeling off walls in room, water pouring on floor from tub leak, poor flushing toilet. Shower tiles loose, mismatched, different color grout. TV reception bad with lost signal several times a minute. Room smelled like an ashtray, although I requested non-smoking. The restaurant in lobby was horrible. The Breakfast food was below poor, lousy tasting, low quality yet high priced. I would recommend to anyone to spend their money elsewhere.”

  • Good location.
  • Cleanliness, unsatisfactory - bedbugs, they bite!

“Hotel had bedbugs. Staff was unfriendly, maintenance staff can't fix a thing! Extremely noisy - hotel needs to be remodeled! Carpet dirty, everything was terrible. I do not recommend anyone to stay here!”

  • Location.
  • Driving directions were unclear, signage poor, and construction kept us lost. No lights on the road leading to the property.

“Everything worked, but was worn and tired looking. Our room was next to the elevator shaft, and had too much random furniture.”

  • 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.”

“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.”

Cleanliness:[3] • Staff:[5] • Location:[8]

  • 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.”
