My husband and I stayed at the Comfort Inn and Suites in Alexandria the nights of December 27 and 28. It was very clean and tastefully decorated. The beds were very comfortable. There were beautiful framed prints of the DC area in the rooms. The staff was most accomodating and friendly !! There is a very full breakfast with lots... More

I stayed here for 5 days in September whilst I was on a sightseeing holiday. The hotel location is sufficient for seeing all the touristy DC sights. It is close to a Metro station (the Metro system itself is very commendable.) There is a free shuttle to and from the station which is very useful since although the hotel is... More

Three female ,senior friends touring Washington. We wanted a place to stay that was safe,clean and reasonably priced. This property met all three requirements and more.... Friendly and helpful staff, particularly Jason at the front desk and Andrew, our shuttle driver. Oh yes, there is a free shuttle to the Metro. More

I stayed here one night when I had an early meeting in Alexandria that I knew I wouldn't be able to make in time if driving from Frederick. I negotiated a good rate on a hotel bidding website that made it worth my while. The room was large, but sparsely furnished and dingy. Being next to the Beltway, among other... More

I've stayed here twice. These guys are still doing repairs from a two month old earthquake. Thats a red flag. They need a tv across from the desk because when I have to wait for the front desk clerk to finish writing a sentence in her homework so I can check in, that's inexcusable. What's down right disturbing is that... More

I made the reservation online and the reviews weren't awesome, but not really bad either so I wasn't expecting much. I had trouble checking in, they kept saying my card was declined so I had to go to an ATM which too an hour to get there and back. I checked in and went up to my room and the... More

The rooms were clean and average. The night front desk gentleman was nice but not accomodating when we mentioned that we had AAA (let us know how much trouble it would be to redo the reservation). After the horrible experience we had just previously experienced, we didn't push it, and probably lost $25 (2 rooms). For $100-120, not worth it,... More

For the DC area this hotel is a great find. We took our teen age granddaughter with with us on they trip. The room was newly remodeled, clean, and we each had a private room with 11/2 baths. It was great. Breakfast was good, and coffee was excellent. The hotel location is not within walking distance to restaurants, or a... More

I once stayed in the Bates Motel & I was more comfortable. Seriously, the sheets & bedding were actually moist from the humidity in the room. It was like we were sleeping on a boat! Beggars can't be choosers, and the alternative was falling asleep behind the wheel. I laid my daughter's iPad down on top of the TV, &... More

I reserved three rooms at this hotel for nine people in my family. I picked this hotel for the price, amenities and location to DC. I was very happy with the hotel, the staff, the comfort of the beds and the breakfast. I wish the pool was a little bigger and a little cooler (it was hot in DC), but... More
