“Comfortable & Convenient”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 9, 2012

The day after I cancelled our downtown DC hotel reservation, our Congressman came through with White House tour tickets and everything (reasonably priced) was booked. So, I was thrilled to find this Holiday Inn at an appealing rate. I am wary of hotel shuttle services and their reliability, so we rented a car, but this turned out not to be necessary at all.

The lobby area is spotless, comfortable, and welcoming (with two PCs and a printer for guests, along with an area for coffee, with creamers which we appreciated). Check-in was friendly and efficient. Having to use a key to operate the elevator always makes us feel more secure (knowing no one other than guests can access the upper floors).

We found the location to be extremely convenient (right off the BW Parkway and only a short drive from the New Carrollton station - for Amtrak, MARC, and Metro). The neighborhood was just fine with everything you could possibly want/need nearby. (We were thrilled to find Ledo’s Pizza!)

Our room was spacious and comfortable. Everything seemed brand new, with meticulous housekeeping. TV Channel reference handy for 42" flat screen TV. There were two outlets right in the lamp on the desk (one for laptop, other for charging phones). Linens were plentiful (and snow white) with plenty of plush pillows and towels. Lots of hangers in closet. Excellent climate control. Air Conditioning was so powerful, we ultimately switched to Fan Only (mid September).

Service throughout our stay was extraordinary. Shuttle service was convenient and always very prompt with a courteous driver.

My only quibble is that, while there was plenty of room for board and iron, the lamp or bedside clock had to be unplugged to plug in the iron. (Tip: Fill steam iron with the coffee pot.)

We really enjoyed our stay and appreciated the helpfulness and cheerfulness of the entire staff (especially Chrissy at the front desk).

“Good experience”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 11, 2012

We stayed there for 7 nights and it was very pleasant. Location was decent. Rooms were decent. Service was decent. Breakfast consisted of scrambled eggs, pan sausage (bacon on Saturday), mini biscuits, pancakes, cinnamon rolls, bagels, assorted cereals, assorted juices and milks. They provided transportation to the New Carollton Metro Station and would also pick you up. Overall it was a very decent place to stay and would stay there again.

“Usual Excellent Holiday Inn”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed September 25, 2012

Stayed in quite a few Holiday Inns in the US, rooms are always good size and well furnished. This one had excellent courtesy bus service to station for trains to central Washington. Staff even more helpful than usual.

“Not Bad at All.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed September 10, 2012

Stayed here in 2 rooms for 3 nights during a move to DC. Thought we would only require 2 nights, but when we realized we needed three, the front desk clerk amiably adjusted our stay at the same rate. I have never stayed in the HI Express brand before, but was pleasantly surprised. The room was above average. Seemed new or newly renovated. Bed was comfortable. The free breakfast was above average, with good variety. The automatic pancake maker was neat and quiet, a good solution to the loudly beeping make your own waffle machine that causes such chaos at other hotel chains. Also noted that the associate monitoring the breakfast was extremely friendly, and kept everything clean and replenished very efficiently. I had 2 concerns about my stay here: 1. While the location was great for DC access and price, it seemed to be in a below average neighborhood, though a lot better than the neighborhood that the other HI Express is in. (on US 50 closer to DC). There was a dedicated security guard patrolling the parking lot at night, which made me a bit nervous of the area, but happy he was there. 2. There are only 3 Handicapped spaces, and a ramped incline to get in the lobby. This is hard for a wheelchair user who is balancing luggage on the lap. The ramp could be less steep, and more accessible spaces would be appreciated.

“Good experience!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed August 19, 2012

We stayed at Hyattsville Aug 10th-14th. Had a very good stay. At check in it took a long time for desk clerk to come out of the office (7-8 minutes?) - not sure what was going on. Breakfast was always plentiful and employees always friendly and respectful. We were worried about security at first but never had a problem. Having the Italian Resturaunt next door and W-mart across the way were helpful. Loved the free shuttle to the Metro(NewCarrolton). Key card for the elevator was a bit of a pain, but gave us some piece of mind about who could get to rooms. It would be helpful to have more information on the metro system (like extra $1 per trip with paper cards so buy the "Smarttrip" if you are doing 5 or more trips, directions on what to do/ where to go when you get to the metro station, real maps from the metro available)

Room Tip: No ice on 2nd floor was a pain. Sign up for the free shuttle early. Van holds 6 people and goes ever...

Hello Bambilllinois, I am glad to read that your stay was enjoyable and that you had great interactions with the staff. Typically in our lobby where we keep the pamphlets there are large area maps for the city, as well as the metro system. In our business center guests are able to print out directions to any location. Our front desk staff is also knowledgeable in how to get around. Whenever you return please be sure to speak with someone at the front desk if you require printed directions or even some local attractions to visit. We hope to see you again soon! Have a great week!
