First of all it's says the hotel's non-smoking. Time you enter the building it reaks of smoke and a moldy smell as well. The walls are paper thin(you can hear everything that's going on the room adjacent to you). I've visited other hotels with lounges and bars, they are nowhere near as LOUD as this one. The other visitors aren't... More

I would not recommend this hotel for ANYONE to stay for the reasons listed: 1. Dank humid room with constant condensation on the windows. We never could get the humidity controlled and we stayed in early May. 2. Mold growing on the ceiling in our shower area of our bathroom. 3. The paid lifeguard on duty was ASLEEP when we... More

As the organizer of the trip, setting up a hotel that could accommodate @50 people was important. Lily LaMagna Regional Product Director of San Diego Meetings.WashingtonDC.com Support Team helped me locate the hotel. Honestly, the web site does not do it justice. The lobby was beautiful and inviting. The pool was great for the boys that attended. The buffet breakfast... More

At 4:00 AM I was calling around to several hotels, none of which were accommodating or even willing to entertain my request. Once I got in contact with the Best Western, they were very accommodating and eager to allow me to check in right away which was clearly hours before check in time. The front desk staff could see how... More

This hotel has some pros and cons. The Good: low rates, free hot breakfast, rooms were nicely renovated, minutes from the metro, indoor pool, complimentary parking and shuttle to metro station, and comfortable bed. Then the Bad. The hotel is in a ghetto area and therefore also attracts ghetto patrons. While the rooms have been renovated, the old A/C untis... More

Pro: free wifi, free breakfast, free shuttle to metro, and price Con: no controllable thermostat in room & its loud! weekend club in the hotel, rooms nor bathrooms are not to die for, outdated hotel Not a great hotel, or for the family but good for price.

On three occasions in the past two years, we have been in the Washington/ College Park area for business and research purposes. We like this big, old hotel that Best Western has restored to a neat, almost elegant, hotel. It has about 8 or 9 floors, and has several amenities: a neat little gift shop, a huge swimming pool (indoors)... More

The hotels in the city centre of Washington DC are extraordinarily expensive and we were hesitant to choose the outer suburbs of the city as we'd heard varied reports about the safety of certain areas and poor reviews of hotels that were in safer areas, so we had to decide between staying in Alexandria in Virgina, which has a metro...

The staff service was good. But the hotel and rooms are in need of renovations. The first room that was given to me on the 6th floor was located directly across from the elevators. I could hear the elevator doors open and closing every time some one used them. The ceiling above the elevator and next to the room showed... More
