Once I arrived to Washington , DC from Miami we took the train located downstairs of the airport and transferred to the metro (redline ) until shady grove station. From there the hotel shuttle pick us up!!! Awesome. They also took us back to to any where else we wanted to go with in a five mile radius. We actuality used it all the time to get to and from the train station, it was very convenient !! The staff was super nice and helpful and the rooms were spacious and very clean

Just spent the weekend here and have to say that it is horrible in every way. The wallpaper is from the 70's, the carpets are black with dirt (just check the bottom of your feet), every faucet drips, everywhere you look it needs a makeover and the breakfast consists of the cheapest and most unhealthy food to be found. To boot, housekeeping does not change your sheets, they just male the bed and replace towels. The front desk people are quite nice though and happy to apologize for the shortcomings of the property.

With a hotel layout that resembles a prison, my bet is they are thankful to be hanging on by a thread. Oh, and did I forget to share that the exterminator needs to be a resident as the bugs are out of control.

I am an extended stay business guest of this hotel which recently affiliated with Quality/Choice Hotels. I have been here since June. While the facility is over 30 years old, upkeep apparently has improved since quality took over. It has easy access to I-270 and a shuttle that makes regularly scheduled runs to Shady Grove Metro. It is located in a quite residential area within a mile of supermarkets and restaurants.

Pros: Large updated suites with full kitchens and 2 large screen tvs.
Courteous and responsive front desk staff and management
Full breakfast, eggs, waffles etc
Excellent housekeeping, very clean rooms
Extremely comfortable beds
Great rates for extended stays

Cons: Most rooms open to the exterior.
Traffic noise from I-270 on the west side of the facility, request a courtyard room
Frequently malfunctioning door locks due to exposure to the weather
My first room had Mickey & Minnie mouse, but I was quickly switched to another room with
no other sightings in over 4 months.

Bottom Line: I trave a lot, and if I wasn't extremely satisfied I would have changed hotels immediately.

I stayed there a couple of days, hadn't the chance of staying much in the hotel since I was most of the time out. I was in a suite with two queen beds, kitchen, sofa and bathroom. We like the stay, although most parts of the hotel were in bad state. The pool was out of service. The breakfast was okay but not so healthy and well prepared.
