“OK Stay at this hotel, watch out for the scalding water”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 10, 2011

The hotel has a beautiful lobby and seating area. The staff was attentive and professional. Check in took about 15 minutes. When we entered the hotel room it had a very musty and mildewy smell as soon as we opened the door, the smell never went away. The smell is strongest near the door. The furniture is very uncomfortable and in need of an update, it is really worn. The room was small, but the bathroom was good size. The room was fairly quiet during our stay. Our room had NO microwave or fridge. Our room faced the street, in the new part of the hotel, it was interesting to people watch from our window. One important thing I must mention is the HOT water, it is HOT. We did not get burned, but I think it would be easy to get scalded. Please watch children in the bathroom while using the hot water. The most important thing that makes the hotel so appealing is the location to the Metro. It is only steps to the Metro, so that is a plus for this hotel. There is a restaurant in the hotel, the food was pretty good. There is also a McDonalds on one corner and an Arbys on the other corner. The Papa Johns Pizza is in the strip mall between the Arbys and the McDonalds, if you want something else you can drive a short distance. We will stay here next time we are in DC area, only because of the convience of the Metro.

Room Tip: Ask for the new part of the hotel.

“Beautiful hotel on the metro”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed September 27, 2011 via mobile

If you need to be at meetings at any one of the many government agencies along the red line in Washington's northwest suburbs, this is a lovely hotel. There isn't much to do in walking distance, though there are some chain restaurants. The hotel is only a stone's throw from the White Flint stop, though, so it is an easy ride downtown. There are some nice places to run in the neighborhood including the nearby Bethesda Trolley Trail.

“Great business hotel.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 22, 2011

Stayed here 5 nights for a business conference.

My room was clean and well maintained. The bed and pillows were comfortable. All the amenities I needed were in the room.

I used their fitness facilities every day. There was a large selection and even when all fitness machines were in use there was still enough room for people to do free weights/cardio. The life guard made sure all cardio machines were clean and had towels after each use (when there were not people using the pool).

Everyone I interacted with (Front Desk, Concierge, Housekeeping) were all friendly and helpful.

The room keys are very sensitive to magnets so be careful! I had to get mine re-keyed more than once.

“One of the worst Marriotts-in their hometown no less!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed September 19, 2011 via mobile

We recd a letter welcoming us and acknowledging our platinum status which increased our expectations for a great stay. We could not have been more disappointed. It w/have been better had they not bothered to email us. The room was small, old and dirty. The service was ok at best-barely responsive as if just there to have a human presence and no more. Food was terrible and weak. Can't say more how bad it was.....if only for convenience there is no other reason to stay here.

“Decent business hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed September 19, 2011

Spent one night here for a 2-day conference. Overall, a decent business hotel. I had a room with 2 double beds, a large closet with iron and ironing board and mirrored door; there is a safe in the dresser. Bathroom is small, sink, toilet and bathtub with curved-bar shower curtain all behind the same door which would make it hard for multiple family members to get ready simultaneously. Room also includes smoke detector and sprinkler, Room includes an ice bucket, refrigerator with small icebox, flatscreen TV but no microwave oven. For business, the room includes a Timex alarm clock, a single cup coffee pot, a desk with wired internet and a phone, desk chair, easy chair with lamp. Wireless internet is available in some rooms in the hotel, but coverage is spotty. Hotel includes a full service restaurant with a breakfast buffet, as well as a nice bar including tap beer. Parking is controlled with a gate as there is a subway entrance across the parking lot, but parking fee was included with either the room or the conference. There is a McDonald’s across the street and a variety of other restaurants a short drive away.
