We had to stay in Alexandria for almost a week, and chose this hotel because of previous experience with the Choice Hotel brand. We knew to expect a fairly spacious room with decent amenities, nothing fancy, but clean. We were not disappointed in our expectations. I had some minor problems with the room: one of the dresser drawers had no pulls, so we couldn't really use it. No big deal if you're one night, but staying a week, minor problem. The other drawer in the dresser had the bottom kind of falling out and dirty. Again, in our situation, a bummer. The staff was very kind and helpful. Our key didn't work when trying to check in late and tired. The desk guy came out to check for himself and realized that the door lock was shot. He promptly went downstairs and checked us into a new room right next door and offered to help us carry our things in. WOW! There was a minor snafu with trying to extend check out time of realatives, but was resolved quickly when I went down & spoke with desk clerk. The restaurants nearby are good, and there's even a little bar for a nightcap. Great access to shopping and all the major stuff in Alexandria. Can be noisy with MacArthur Drive right there and 4 dumpsters being emptied at 3:30 am on Tuesday nights. I would stay again. Not on Tuesday.
