“It was okay!”

Days Inn Alexandria-South

Apr 25, 2007
1/1 found this review helpful

The place was alright. Needed a place to stay overnight. Paid $81 for the night. Check in/out was fast, elevator kinda of smell. Rooms were ok, nothing to write home about. Bathrooms were small, beds were ok, Rooms had a fridge and microwave. Location was ideal especially if you have a car. If you come out the parking lot and make a right onto the highway for the next 15 minutes there were numerous places to go shopping, whether its fast food(Micky Ds, KFC,Tacobell) or a restaurant (Mexican, Outback, Applebees), there are supermarkets, Target, Walmart. There were plenty of places, too many to name. They said they have free wireless internet but when we asked the man at the front desk, he wasnt much help when we asked him a question. He told us to call the helpdesk. He wasn't very knowledgeable at all.

“Not Much to Say...”

Days Inn Alexandria-South

Jan 20, 2007

This motel was average in every way. Although it seemed clean, it was a little rundown but not enough to complain about. I asked for extra blanket and towels, the maid was there within minutes. Krispy Kreme "hot" doughnut store right down the street. Well worth the drive ;)

“Broolyn Couple Says Excellent Inexpensive Stay”

Days Inn Alexandria-South

Oct 28, 2006
2/2 found this review helpful

If you're looking for a clean, pleasant place to sleep during a site-seeing trip to DC, this was a very nice hotel. A quick city bus ride to the subway, a quick subway ride into DC. The hotel personnel were very helpful with everything. (Please tip the cleaning personnel, cuz we forgot!)

Breakfast with a bus load of high school kids was the worst thing to happen.......not bad at all.

We plan to stay in this hotel for future visits. The pool was out of season while we stayed, so we can't review that, but we hope to next time.

If you are looking for 4-Star accommodations, look elsewhere, but this Days Inn made for a clean place to sleep in DC.

“Very dissapointing”

Days Inn Alexandria-South

Apr 19, 2006
2/2 found this review helpful

I've booked this hotel via hotels---, but the experience at this Days Inn certainly did not match the expectation created by hotels---. This place is run-down, dirty and smelly. The personnel gave the impression they were doing us a favor for letting us stay there.

Despite its good location and reasonable tariff, I will never use this place again.

“Yuck! Motel 6 is better!”

Days Inn Alexandria-South

Jan 18, 2006
0/1 found this review helpful

Dirty, rundown rooms, a questionable clientele, and an elevator that smelled like urine. I was on a business trip with another female colleague in Nov. 2005, and I know I would not have wanted to stay there by myself due to the weird characters hanging around on the walkways and leering in our general direction. Needless to say, I will never stay at a Days Inn again.

The staff was not friendly. I was hung up on after requesting a wake up call, and they messed up the wake up call even though we placed two calls to confirm it. The next morning, the desk clerk shouted at us regarding what time she thought we should be at the airport (2 hours to make it to and through Reagan Nat'l, but we were leaving too early according to her!). The continental breakfast was not bad, but the overall experience was very unpleasant! I've had better experiences at Motel 6!
