This hotel is in the business district of Tyson's Corner. It is near a shopping area and near a few restaurants. The indoor pool is heated but somewhat dark and unattractive. The opening hours are limited, from 5-10 pm. The buffet breakfast is good and has a decent variety. The TV in our room was old, no flat screen. Otherwise the room was spacious and the beds where clean and comfortable. Parking was free and so was the internet PC in the lobby. Overall the hotel is a decent value.

This is definitely an old hotel. I think the term to use is "functional." You need a cheap place to sleep in a pinch? This will do. What takes it from 3 to 2 star rating is the rather inconsistent front desk staff (and lack of any other when you need them). One woman in the front is quite friendly and helpful. The rest, well... The breakfast buffet is perfectly fine. The rooms in general let in a fair amount of noise from the hallway, and those by the elevator are therefore even noisier. Woe to the traveler or business person who needs uninterrupted sleep. If you have business in one of the major companies (Booz, SAIC) nearby, then you are centrally located. Otherwise, you'll want a car for everything - especially heading to the malls and nearby restaurants. It's not a pedestrian friendly area. At least its not an expensive hotel.

The hotel is old, but it provides everything you may need at your stay. The room is large. We were three peple and it was very comfortable for us. The beds are cozy. Breakfast was perfect.
I definitely recommend it.

Of course if your a perfectionist that nit picks EVERY little detail of a hotel and are looking for a LAVISH Hilton type hotel with "UPDATED" drapery and wallpaper (as if that matters anyway) and you have $300 to drop on a room each night, then you are looking at the wrong hotel. If you are looking for a clean, SIMPLE, VERY AFFORDABLE ($98/night) comfortable, cool, quiet, relaxing hotel that you can bring your family to, with cable tv, an indoor pool and an AMAZING full buffet breakfast in the morning, then THIS is your hotel! The buffet was equivalent or BETTER than what you could find at a Shoneys, or Golden Corral restaurant....eggs, toast, bagels, cereal, bacon, sausage, pastries, belgian waffles, coffee, milk, juice etc!!!!!! The staff was VERY accomadating and to my suprise they had Pantene Pro V shampoo in the bathrooms...big PLUS : ) The only thing I can say that I was dissapointed about SLIGHTLY was the elevator was having a few issues, but was straightened out while we were there. YOU WILL BE PLEASED IF YOU BOOK HERE, trust me, my husband can be VERY PICKY and he LOVED IT here! : )
