Bidrage med feedbackWe were flying out of DCA and opted to stay here the night before to enjoy an evening in Old Town and park here during our stay. Checking in was very slow, as they were busy and there were only two people working the front desk. The stay was nice, the room was clean and comfy and offered all the amenities. They next morning we went down to catch the shuttle, but had a question about the process and had to yell to get the clerk’s attention, he was clearly sleeping in the back room, since it was around 6AM. The shuttle ride from here to DCA was quick, as this place is really close to the airport. Upon landing and needing the shuttle to get back, we went to door number 4 at DCA on the lower level and waited for a very long time, we must’ve just missed him. During our wait, we saw the same shuttles from 2 other hotels stop by, who knows. Eventually he showed up and gave us a ride back. The gym here is huge! Not sure if it shares the gym with the Renaissance next door, but it seems they might. Equipment was in decent condition and clean too! Overall, not a bad deal to stay and park. But the shuttle system can add more delay, so plan accordingly.
Underrated, this place deserves to blow up! Allahu snackbar
On check in the place was really busy with busloads of kids also waiting for their rooms. At one point I asked the front desk staff if we would be on a floor with the teens as our last experience at a Marriott in the area was not good and I didn’t want a repeat of the same sort of experience. That couldn’t be guaranteed as the kids were pretty much located on every floor. Nothing against kids or teens at all, we had our own teenager and a baby with us. Front desk staff was apologetic for the delay in check in and gave us a discount on parking. We didn’t ask for it, but the gesture was greatly appreciated. The hotel was quiet and the only issue we found was that the breakfast area was quite busy due to lots of hungry teens in the morning, all of whom I should add were very polite and respectful. I would consider staying here again on future trips.
NOISY! This has to be the noisiest hotel I have ever experienced. In addition to the street noise, and it’s not even in the district!, the doors slam shut. LOUDLY. So loud that it’s startling if you happen to be asleep, which is difficult because of the construction noise right beside the hotel. Also, the bed is terribly uncomfortable. Very disappointing for a Marriott hotel.
I chose this hotel for the proximity to the airport and closest metro station as the hotel provides a shuttle service to each. The shuttle runs every 30 minutes to each of those locations and during our 3 day visit, we utilized this service every day. The shuttle was on-time every single time. The driver even assisted with loading/unloading our bags at the airport pick-up/drop off. Check-in was pretty seamless. Front desk workers were friendly, helpful and very professional. Our room was spotless and the beds were very comfortable. The free breakfast had plenty of options and the food was good. We did not use any of the hotel amenities since we basically just used the hotel for a place to sleep and transportation during our short visit, so I can not speak of those. While we were there, we wanted to explore Alexandra, Arlington as well as DC. This was a perfect location for doing just that. I would highly recommend this property to others, especially first timers to the area. We had a great vacation!
