“Great room, bad breakfast”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed March 11, 2013

The rooms in were very nice & clean. Our room was very spacious with 2 double beds and a pullout couch. The bathroom was also clean and spacious. In our room the sink was separate from toilet and shower. There was a fridge, microwave, and another small sink with counter space. Hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. The indoor "heated" pool was very cold but the kids enjoyed it. The common areas are not kept clean. The fitness room and equipment really need a good cleaning. The breakfast was small and food & coffee was not good. Overall the hotel is a great value. There are lot's of restaurants nearby. I would definitely stay here again.

“LOVED IT! Will return for more.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 28, 2013

WOW great hotel. Nice clean lobby, love the blue color of interior. Checked in and was greeted with a large bowl of lollipops, which by the way was pretty tasty. The room we had was also nice, it was on the fifth floor away from the elevator. Everything was so wonderful in the room except the heating, it was noisy and made the air very-very dry. Other then that, I had a great time at this hotel. The breakfast was great, a full size greek yogurt? WOW! Find Nutella in the condiment jar made me really happy. The breakfast lady was so helpful and friendly, she was so accomodating. Front desk staff very friendly. my family and I will Return!

“George Mason University”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 19, 2013

Stayed here to visit college, great hotel , reasonable rates, 10 minute drive to campus
hotel was very clean, had a half wall , so not really a suite, but offered some privacy, 1 tv in center of room, tilt for either the sofa or the beds, great wi fi, small area for microwave, fridge, sink , counter, large desk with L shape pull out sofa, breakfast buffet was better than normal, eggs, canadian bacon, french toast sticks, waffle maker, cheese, oatmeal, fixins for eggs , oatmeal, fresh fruit, donuts, muffins, juice , yogurt, exceptionally clean, my only complaint would be the pool, (small ) , it was cold at night , 8:00, warm earlier, I checked but at night it was very cold , could not swim, thats why 4 stars not 5
the hotel is about 15 minute drive to the space museum, had a great time there
Parking garage offered plenty of spots to park also it was nice , not dark and dingy
plenty of malls in area to shop
ate at prime time pub, 1 minute away, apps were great , dinner was nothing special

Room Tip: ask for the L shaped sofa, some are only a double

5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 28, 2013 via mobile

Really nice, helpful staff. Nice hot breakfast. Clean. Work out room & pool more than adequate. In-room coffe sucks, but really good complimentary joe in the lobby. Good parking garage. Heavier snacks &the drinks for sale in lobby. Decent wifi. Strongly recommend!

“clean, modern room”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 7, 2013

Stayed here 1 night in a king suite for a very reasonable rate. Loved the L shaped sofa (so much better than hotel chairs), fridge, microwave & computer area being separate from the sleeping area. The very white linens were a nice touch, easy to tell they were clean! We were lucky to face a small courtyard so no road noise. Breakfast had a good selection of options from healthy: Greek yogurt w/ a number of 'mix in' options, scrambled eggs & Kashi cereal to more sugary options: sweetened cereals, mini donuts & poppy seed cake. The waffle makers were not working but are apparently often available. Friendly staff throughout.

Room Tip: Facing small courtyard has less noise
