Nice place in a convenient area. Breakfast was just okay. Staff were great, some other guests, not so much but you can't do anything about that. Price was fair and the place was clean.

We were charged to check in early, then they forgot to check us in, which ended up in our room being given away while we were still in it! Not impressed, management said they would contact us but never did.

Great location, older hotel. Smelled like cigarettes as soon as you walked in and also on our floor (3rd). There was a crib left in our room and urine in the toilet. The toilet did not work. We were moved to a different room.

This hotel is a very affordable option for those wanting to visit Arlington or DC. It’s less than a mile from the metro - walking distance to the heart of Ballston. Room was clean and comfortable. It was reasonably quiet. It’s great if you are just looking for a place to sleep. The only two issues that keep this from being a 5-star for me are parking and elevators. Parking is tight and if you get in late, you have to park underneath the building. I felt relatively safe, but it looked sketchy. There are 2 elevators, but one was broken and and the other was slow. Very slow. During breakfast hours, I waited for 10 minutes. I eventually gave up and took the stairs. The stairs are weird, too. Couldn’t tell which floor to get out - and eventually exited to the outside and walked around to the lobby.
