Totally worth it!!

It was a great place to stay at for the price I paid and very close to downtown D.C. The room was spacious, with clean beds and bathroom. The manager at the front desk was a very friendly lady. I will definitely recommend this place.

Nice hotel

Very nice hotel . Friendly and helpful staff.Nice breakfast and bus shuttle to Metro.Would stay here again. Also only a short drive to a gas station, food & groceries.
Julie, 2-night trip

8/10 Very 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.

THOMAS, 2-night trip

Good value and good location

Great value for Money...it's fifteen minutes walk from train station to DC and they even have a shuttle for every hour. It was a simple hotel, yet it was very spacious and staff was nice and helpful. They also have free parking...very rare in the region. Main downside is that the breakfast area is too small for the size of the hotel...it gets tricky. I would stay here again.
2-night trip

8/10 Very good

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 Room was comfortable but outdated.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.
Shawn, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great find if you're visiting the DC area! Awesome and plentiful free breakfast, free parking and and a great room rate too. And it's only a 10 minute walk to the Metro! Bedroom was spotless and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!!
Andrew, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Enjoyable but worn.

Good breakfast but quite crowded and seating was limited/challenging. Lobby/reception staff were helpful and friendly. Good management and availability of luggage carts.
1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Everything worked out very well and the service was very friendly. We were in room 307. It would be great if you could replace the bathroom fan as it was very noisy. The location was perfect for us as we had business at the VHC.

Very convenient for a trip to D.C./National Mall! Shuttle to and from Ballston MU in the morning and evening is great. Good breakfast and coffee!! The beds could be softer but overall nice rooms. I’d stay there if I visit DC and encourage others to stay there too. Front desk was mostly pleasant.
