Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The business center computers are both broken. The employees are truly unenthusiastic. I was left on hold when calling down to the front desk for 5 min. Called back they answered right away. I tried to check in an hour early- they said nothing was available yet, then I watched them check in multiple people. Truly can not believe I spent almost $200 for one night there.

The hotel is neat and personnel is very nice. The breakfast was a good deal for us. The reason for four was that the towel replacement is done almost at 4pm and one of the elevator was out of service. The shuttle from/to airport was great too.

Average at the best. We had to wait several minutes for a room even though we arrived past the check in time. The staff member was helpful in getting a room. But we did wait. The room was showing its age. Needs an update. Daily cleaning was mostly spot on. We ran out of toilet paper on day 2. Shuttle was quick and efficient. Area around hotel was not very sketchy. Has few restaurants down the road. Easy access to DC. Parking fees is crazy for someone from another state. Maybe it’s the norm here.
