I picked this hotel for a short overnight stay between flights on the basis of its proximity to the airport. But it doesn't seem easy to walk between it and the terminal, so you have to wait for a shuttle bus anyway. At least the transfer time is correspondingly short. The hotel was functional but unexciting; the staff were generally helpful. Breakfast isn't available until 6 am (6.30 am weekends) which is not much good if you have an early flight out.

I stayed here because I was stranded at the airport for a night. The first problem was that the front desk and the Marriott Reservations number gave different stories on whether they had rooms. I'm not sure what the game was, were they holding out for a bribe to let go of the room? Weird. Anyway, I got the room and it was more expensive than I wanted, but it was 1130PM and I didn't want to go to a cheaper hotel with no restaurant in it.

Since I was stranded by the airlines, I needed a toothbrush, toothpaste razor etc. The front desk said they didn't have any razors then magically found one when looking for toothbrushes. They also gave me a sample size of deodorant which appeared to be previously used - ick.

I rushed to get some food at the lounge in the lobby and everything looked sort of thread bare and slightly dirty. Also the staff were wondering around almost as if they made up their own schedule of things to do. Not really looking focused and attentive.

The room looked like they were trying to be a luxury hotel so I give them an A for effort, but sitting there with my apparently used deodorant and having just come from the slightly below average late dinner in the lobby, I regretted having splurged the extra $50 to go to this Marriott instead of taking one of the cheaper alternatives.

I'd say with so many choices in the area, avoid this particular Marriott. Their impression of themselves is as a luxury hotel, but they really perform below average.

Building may appear dated, but staff and interior are wonderful. Friendly front desk clerk. Room was freshly redone and clean. Large bathroom compared with some of the Marriotts in downtown DC. Great views of the planes out your window as the hotel is on the airport property. Restaurants & Air and Space museum are minutes away. We definitely stay here again.

I stayed at this hotel while visting some wineries in Northern Virginia. I had a beautiful spacious room with large flat screen television. The bed was cozy, the staff friendly and noise minimal. I had worried being at the Airport there might be plane noise but it was not the case (at least not in my room). The hotel offered a shuttle to many local malls and shopping centers. The hotel had a bar, restaurant and Starbucks with gift shop. The front desk staff was great at both check in and check out. The layout of the hotel was kinda odd but nothing too crazy.
