Over priced during the week, medium priced on weekends Staff is attentive & polite, rooms very comfortable and clean with great selection of pillows NO microwaves in any of the rooms so you must go down to the lobby which makes it very inconvenient as you’ve got to down dressed which takes completely relaxing out of the question

Breakfast has always been quick, hot and ready but ends by 9:30am – so much for sleeping in when on vacation I’ve frequented this hotel while on medical trips to specialty physicians in DC & visiting with family so needless to say I’ve enjoyed my stays

Over priced during the week, medium priced on weekends Staff is attentive & polite, rooms very comfortable and clean with great selection of pillows NO microwaves in any of the rooms so you must go down to the lobby which makes it very inconvenient as you’ve got to go down to the lobby and deal with the microwave than is in a low spot on the shelf in the hotel’s food store

There is a fridge and coffee maker in the room Breakfast has always been quick, hot and ready but ends by 9:30amThe hot water in the sink takes 8 plus minutes to get hot The shower head cannot be moved whatsoever The elevator carpet needs to be cleaned as it smells like the seaweed on a beach or worse

Anthony Noyer

I totally agree with the guy who posted this “It was rather disappointing, it was not as good as the ratings said, and it is also 19 miles from the nearest metro station, not 1 mile The breakfast was poor, but it was in walking distance of many great restaurants

The beds were comfy, but the room was tiny and so was the bathroom The water pressure was fair but it took about 5-6 minutes to get hot and sometimes it would change temperatures in the middle of the shower unprompted Overall it was a fair hotel but I wouldn’t suggest it to my friends” I would also like to add that you gym area needs to be renovated with fresh new colors to freshen up up the room and attract younger demographics It felt like going back in time to the 1990

This was my husband and I first time there and our stay was phenomenal The rooms was nice, spacious, clean and highly updated We were given an business room that overlooked the front area with a shopping center right across the street

Customer service was great They made us feel comfortable and right at home The breakfast was dynamic We had so many items to choose from We were given an business room that overlooked the front area with a shopping center right across the street Whenever we go back to that area, we will be staying there

Akainn Z

Great place, not too far from Washington It has a good fitness room / gym The breakfast is good and full of choice

Employees are friendly and professional Only problem is that it doesn’t have a pool and we can here a lot of police going on the roadExcept that, the hotel is really goodI recommend !

Harshad Pandit

We had a great experience staying at the Best Western Hotel The staff was courteous and the entire hotel appeared remodeled and modern The rooms were clean

The location was safe and just 20 minutes from DC and Alexandria The hotel also included a hot buffet as a part of the tariff Breakfast included scrambled eggs, bacon, sausages, potatoes, cereals, pancakes, waffles, donuts, muffins, juice, a variety of coffees, tea etc A lot of choice Several restaurants are within driving distance from the hotel The hotel manager Marcus Reid was kind and went the extra mile to make our stay comfortable During the breakfast my wife lost/dropped her phone/wallet which also included cards and cash The breakfast room staff was honest and kept it aside This was our first trip post covid and we couldn’t have selected a better place to stay

Dare Aladejebi

The people at the front desk were the nicest hotel workers we ever met! One of them even started a conversation with us One thing I would have liked better would be to have the signs in the lobby tell people that there was a pool on the first floor! I was pumped about hearing that there was a pool when we got there but I never found out until the morning we were leaving The food was ok but if your serving sausage then I want sausage not oil

The TV in our room (unlike the last hotel I went to) actually allowed us to play on our Switch The view from the rooms are also great Above all it was a great experience The location of the hotel is perfect for anyone who wants to go to DC but doesn’t want to wake-up to a myriad of horns honking,

MIKEONE

Let me count the ways Trust me I am not the critical kind of guy 1) Basic stuff here the safe does not work

2) Human hair on the bathroom floor a lot of it 3) The ceiling fan was dirty 4) The sink was slow to drain Etc, I booked this place for 4 nights This is crazy, looking for a better place as I type I will talk with management before leaving It will cost me to leave this dump, sorry shack yes that is more accurate I hope the quality control will improve someday I was locked out of the room for about 45 minutes one morning the electronic door key system failed I was told I had to wait until the maintenance man came in LOL The office center computer system did not work the entire stay I was there Enough already, I guess I am the only one these things happen too They got a lot of great reviews

I would give them 45 if I could Check-in was excellent

Treven (?) Hudson was working and he was friendly, helpful and professional The room exceeded my expectations Roomy, comfortable, and quiet Free parking was fine, and parking lot well lighted The free coffee in the lobby area was good too My only complaint, is that my room wasn’t cleaned If in the area again, this is where I’m staying

Lolita Pollard-Kezele

We basically have a spacious one bedroom apartment Our condo didn’t close on time so we needed temporary housing We will try to never stay at extended stay again

This is so much better Worth the money Real post!Update: We are extending our stay and it’s still light years better than extended stay but we are having trouble with the hot water Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t They are renovating so it may have something to do with that

JoJo Q

My Fiancé & I stayed in the hotel for one nightAs soon as we walked in the receptionist welcomed us with a smile He was courteous and friendly

The lobby looks tidy, smells fresh & clean Our room was big with a small kitchenette & a full size refrigerator The only thing that needs improvement is the furnitures in the room Overall, for a few nights stay it’s gives its purpose I’ll give it 3 stars

Kara Collinge

Perfectly off I-95 south making it easy to get back on the high way Very quiet and very clean After an incredibly long day it was nice to be checked in quickly and efficiently even for the late hour I was doing so

All the staff were incredibly kind and helpful The room was spotless and the bed was as amazing as the omelette bar downstairs that was available during the complimentary breakfast I will always recommend staying here

diane eliezer

This is the nicest Embassy Suites I’ve stayed in, bar none Impeccably clean, large bathrooms, comfortable beds, excellent front desk The free hot breakfast features an omelet bar, and the free drinks from 5:30 – 7:30 each evening is a welcome tradition

We ate in the restaurant and enjoyed a great French Dip sandwich with sirloin and a Caesar Salad with about 8 oz of hotgrilled salmon, plus sides and drinks for under $4500 I would recommend this hotel to everybody The only “downsides” are (1) it’s incredibly convenient to DC /all tourist areas BUT there is nothing close by except a Wendy’s (2) the lighting in the rooms is absolutely awful, just plain DARK and (3) $10 per night to park Other than that, I’ll continue to make this my go-to hotel in VA/DC

Angelo Cruz

Quite honestly one of the best hotel experiences I’ve ever had! From booking online to arriving, I was treated with respect and as a true guest In a post-covered world where we’re all putting the pieces back together, it is great to see this establishment really taking care of people and making them feel at home I have to really applaud Sabrina and Alex at the front desk

Nothing beats a stay at the Hilton and Embassy knocks that right out of the park!

John Hogan

Comfortable bed, good curtains, decent breakfast A working, functional toilet in the room would have added more than one extra star to this review We informed the front desk of our dilemma

An “engineer” was dispatched He arrived with a new flush mechanism The issue was blockage He said he would return with a snake to unblock it He did not; or did and was unsuccessful in his attempt When we returned to the room, the toilet was still fubar It was lateI do not recommend this establishment I certainly will not stay there again Cobwebs behind the door, leaking shower stall door, extremely difficult wall plug adjacent to the main table/desk, not mounted to a wall stud Very many minor “tics” in the bad column Not that many in the good columnStay somewhere else

Donovan Derrick

I recently stayed for work Work booked my hotel however, had I known I would’ve chosen somewhere else The overall experience was fine however, the room was far from cleanly

The microwave had crusted foodliterally crusted food and splatter from previous guest It was clear it hadn’t been cleaned The floor was also stained with what seemed to be soda or fruit juice I had a busy agenda and luckily only used the room for sleep however that simply is unacceptable for guests you’re supposed to prepare for The top of the fridge had leftover food, molding Disgusting!! The bed itself was fine, nothing to rave about and the bathroom was fine Honestly, for a Hilton property I would’ve expected better

Mark

The staff was friendly and the breakfast was great The room was clean but they booked my room so they moved me to a handicap room As a diamond member I was hoping for something better

The pool was still closed due to covid which is crazy since Virginia is wide open for over a year nowOverall I enjoyed the location and the cleanliness of the room and friendliness of the staff Please open up the pool

First time to try this hotel, was an amazing experience The check in process was seamless Ample of parking spots available ( was for free during my stay, I was told that at times they charge)

Also they are clear in their instructionsThe room I got was super clean and with a fridge and a microwave breakfast was better than what I got in an actual breakfast place with lots of choicesAlso they have a pool and a gym I hope you enjoy your stay like I did

Sebasthian Ahumada

We stayed at this location during our trip to DC and were blown away by the positive experience we had The manager, I believe his name was Kevin, was absolutely welcoming and accommodating in every way He went out of his way multiple times to personally ensure that every guest was comfortable and had all their needs met

We forgot to pack some supplies and he happily provided a replacementThe room was very clean, comfortable, and had no weird smells The Continental Breakfast was delicious and plentiful while the eating area was constantly kept clean Thank you to all the staff for making this a great trip We have agreed to make this our permanent hotel whenever visiting the area

Thomas Weaver

We had a very nice, spacious room We are showing our condo for sale and it was great that they were able to accommodate our cats! We had a comfortable, and restful stay The young gentleman at the front desk was super professional and attentive

Everything was fresh and clean I have had a great experience at each Hampton Inn that I’ve stayed at

Great location for a week Clean and great staff Manager was an expert at handling issues

However, some variables that need addressedPesticides smell: travel a lot and never experienced this anywhere else It not pesticides, some distracting smell existsSecurity: door locks could be upgraded Window lock are actually broken in certain rooms Definitely the one I stayedBottom line: a great place and recommend

Rock boro

The Courtyard Springfield is a somewhat run down hotel that does not live up to the other Marriott properties we have visited Bathrooms were marginal in upkeep (Running toilets, squeaky and hard to close doors, damaged towel racks)$10 per person parking fee

Three of us arrived in one car so our one night parking fee was $30 for a single vehicle When we booked, the website gave us the total with all fees Did not include any parking fees Seems like a backdoor way to hide the real cost of the roomAC could not keep the room cool or control the humidity Not a comfortable nightIn general would not recommend this hotel There are many other better options within a couple of miles

Kristi Germ

The rooms had an odd smell The mattresses were nasty Urine or throw up stain on mattress near the head of the bed

The other mattress had what looked like dried boogers or bed bug shells in the cracks The windows open, but the screen was completely ripped so we had to keep it shut Cost extra to park and breakfast is not included Not worth the $170 Won’t return*Pictures attached

I’d give them 10 stars for the kind of service they offered The front desk staff are just so polite, super friendly and amazing Like all of them right from the one who was deputed at night who checked us in and the staff the next day morning

I have never experienced such kind of amazing service in any other Marriott so far You can book this place to stay without a thought and you won’t be disappointed

Jed Johnson

Clean, super friendly, and great costumer service I was on business and it had to be at my conference early I forgot my razor, called down to the front desk late to see if they had any for sale at the market place

No charge, the front desk offer to bring me one whenever I needed it This is the reason a stay loyal to the Marriott Brand Thank you for the great service!

tamisha Amire

The hotel was very clean and comfortable I was given a handicap room with a roll in shower not sure why My card was charged for $100 no one could explain to me why

I was told the manager would reverse the charge This morning I was charged an additional $120 I spoke with the manager Sherry who explained that I was not checked out of the hotel and the general manager charged my card I was no longer at the hotel So this place basically had a free for all with my debit card Now I have to wait for them to reverse these unauthorized charges I am very upset My card was charged a total of $220 without my knowledge or permission

Service was excellent Cleverly designed storage solutions throughout suite makes for a more comfortable extended stay Very pet friendly

Stove/oven combo is small, but adequate Missing a few kitchen essentials – prepare to purchase a few pans or adjust your meal plans accordingly Outdoor grills are a nice option Grocery store, restaurant, barber, & liquor store in the shopping center right next door Internet was hit/miss, especially during peak usage times Parking lot accommodated vehicles w/trailers and one semi w/trailer (2 would be pushing it, though)

C. “Diamondz” Angulo

I was completely satisfied with this Hotel I really liked my room It was a perfect size

I loved everything about it The room comes with a “OVEN” yes a real oven I’m from California so any hotels in California do not give you ovens they will supply you with a toaster oven I recommend this place I really liked it not only that they have a bunch of different types of snacks in the lobby the closets are really big go check it out

Pros: The room layout was greatCons: Didn’t receive any maid service Several doors didn’t close properly

No breakfast Was assured there was a fold-out couch, but our room didn’t have one Limited parkingIf you can, stay somewhere else

I was taking the Autotrain and stayed here 10 years ago and loved the hotel! Now I’m back overnight again after all this time and the place is amazing! They definitely remodeled the place and the rooms were so pretty and very clean! They also have a free breakfast for the guests which was amazing! Thank you Marie and Parker at the front desk who were so very nice and professional and had a smile on their faces! 5 STARS!

Reese Hathaway

Very close to the AutoTrain Within walking distance of Amazon Fresh The room itself was very nice and clean

The breakfast was good and gave my party enough time to get breakfast later in the morning My only complaint is my room smelled musty our entire stay The AC was also set on 75 when we arrived Other than that the hotel was great Checkout is at 11 o’clock If you’re going on the auto train you can pick up dinner nearby then get your car checked in at 12:30

Kimberley Sherman

Convenient location for catching the auto train We’ve stayed here before & were happy The staff was very friendly especially Lisa, front desk, Westley, Chief Engineer, & Mary, GM

They all tried to fix the issues we had with our room They’re trying to renovate & update as they get the materials Some rooms need it more than others, like ours with the musty ac unit The cleaning staff needs to be more thorough also I gave the 3 stars because the staff honestly tried to help us and are working on making the property better

I will be staying here a month for work They’re extended stay room is very nice and spacious Staff was very kind and accommodating, breakfast is always fantastic, and the free Wednesday evening bar is amazing after a long day

To top it off, their cleaning staff literally cleaned my dishes for me the first time they cleaned my room! I’ve never had hotel staff do that for me…incredibly thoughtful, amazing service!

Jodie Hall

I have stayed here multiple times for family weddings within the area, this time I came with my boyfriend to visit my Mommom for my Birthday The room was extremely clean, the air conditioner made the room very cool, the bed was the best bed I’ve ever slept in at a hotel! The staff was friendly and helpful, and I’ve never slept better at a hotel Highly recommend!😊If you want to feel comfortable, stay here!

Erin Shick

The staff was the only redeeming part of this stay They were accommodating and friendly! Management needs to get its act together though! The indoor pool was closed (which was not disclosed when I made the reservation) and was really frustrating The sign said it was because of COVID but another Marriott property less than five minutes away had their indoor pool open

Everything in the room needed updating and the kitchen was very sparsely furnished We had to call the front desk for basically every pot or pan and the pans provided were way past their prime The room was only cleaned every fourth day (which was way too infrequently for our room/group size) and the one time it was cleaned it was cleaned poorly Oh, and did I mention we saw a mouse in our room on two seperate occasions? 🤮 I am embarrassed I booked this for my immediate and extended family My in laws had never stayed at a residence inn before and I am sure they never will again

Jessica G. Stansen

We were Leary staying here because of other negative reviews but they proved to be wrong The front desk staff was pleasant upon arrival, check in was easy and the lobby was clean and inviting Most importantly the room was very clean and comfy and the water pressure in the bathroom was strong

Complimentary coffee in the morning is always appreciated The elevators have a security measure that You need your room key to activate from the lobby I appreciate that because you don’t have unwanted visitors roaming around the hotel A bonus to this hotel is FREE parking! I didn’t give it 5 stars because the rooms didn’t have microwaves I would visit this establishment again

Kaci Cobb

Here now Hotel is nice Staff is friendly

Good location The only issue we really have is there’s no microwave in the room so we can’t really heat up anything for the kids They like to eat half their dinner and bring the rest for later or breakfast Kind of disappointing we can’t do that So just a suggestion would be to add a microwave to the rooms

Kayla Minguez

Happy we were able to check in early as we just moved to the area and had been driving cross-country Desk staff were kind and helpful Room was fine but looked a bit outdated and there was a weird stain on the bathroom wallpaper by the sink that kind of made me think of Forensic Files

The AC also never really seemed to cool the room down It was fine for an overnight but for a Hilton I’d say good not great

The bathroom didn’t have a door separating the preparation room from the rest of the bedroom area, this would have made it easier to get dressed without disturbing others sleeping In the morning, got up to use the work out area and there were only two towels and the workout area needed a thorough wipe down There were sweat marks on the equipment I went and informed front desk twice that towels were needed and the next day they still weren’t there; and the women working out said they had to go to the front desk to get towels and the old towels from yesterday were still there I again informed the front desk of the missing towels I left that day so I don’t know if the area was every wiped down or towels finally delivered As for the breakfast, they definitely watered it down too much Both days the oatmeal was more like soup I tried one day but just couldn’t do it the second day There was just too much water and using plastic spoons, it was hopeless As for the eggs, they were tasteless and again I think they “watered” down these too with something that was just too much I didn’t try the meat, but it looked fine And they had waffles which ran out of strawberry flavored mix and regular constantly The cereals were very boring, no sugar cereals, only the cheapest ones supplied They did have muffins, toast and bagels available and juice and milk Someone spilled their food on the floor and I mentioned to front desk, they picked it up but did not clean the floor The next day a liquid was on the floor and that also was not cleaned up Not pleased with the selection or the hotel in general and have stayed at many Hampton Inns A little more care in cleaning would be better

When I reserved to stay here, I really had low expectations due to the location near Loop I495 The hotel far exceeded my expectations and we had a great stay Parking was kind of congested, but we found spot close enough to the entrance

Our room was very nice and spacious The only knock of the room was the location of the TV, which faced a wall and the bathroom areahowever, it swiveled so that wasn’t a deal breaker The best surprise was the breakfast buffet 😋 We were treated to cheesy eggs, sausage and self serve Waffles (regular and blue berry) our first morning, and the next day was eggs, link sausage, fried potatoes and self serve Waffles (regular and chocolate) There was also plenty of coffee, juices, and other items available They also had a very large dining area which made finding a table and comfortable seating very easyThe location was perfect for access to the highways and very close to the subway stations and surrounding restaurants It was also only minutes away from the airport, so it made arriving to our departing flight very easy We would definitely stay here again when we travel to the DC/Virginia/Maryland area for a future visit

This is a mixed reviewStaff can make and break hotels Everyone I interacted with was polite and wanted to make things better

I appreciate that and I complement the staff for trying every time I brought concerns to them I saw several times the front desk staff dealing with situations with guests that could have spiraled out of control, but were handled with good grace and attitudeWith that, we had room maintenance issues First night we had a grinding noise from the a/c that caused a sleepless night We reported this and it was looked at, but not resolved We reported it again, and the a/c was replaced We also had water backup issues in both the tub and the sink, which we reported, but was not resolved I’ve never in almost 20 years had to report maintenance issues every day of my stayOtherwise, the amenities and location were great We enjoyed the outdoor pool, and the breakfast area was busy but well stocked and good- Edit -The general manager reply below indicated there was a private communication to me, and called me by the incorrect name No one from Hilton or the general manager to this point have reached out to me, and I have not been offered any compensation- Edit #2 -Hilton indicated that the GM had reached out to me and that has not happened to date I have left 2 voicemails to the general manager with no callback- Edit #3 -GM finally reached out and offered a credit Still haven’t seen this on my statement yet- Edit #4 -Finally received a credit on my account Hilton also reached out to me as well for the amount of time that it took me to resolve this

This is a beautiful hotel with amazing views and staff Price is very competitive The staff were very kind and welcoming

I only stayed one night, I checked in around 5pm and left at 8 the next morning, so because of my time restraints I chose not to go directly to staff to see if they could make things right The bathroom was not properly cleaned The sink had hair from a previous shave, and I had a towel that didn’t seem clean either We had a chaise in the room, but it had some stains on it I am hoping this was just a fluke, because I would love to stay again They also charge $17 for breakfast, but we left early to grab breakfast elsewhere If it were for the disappointment with cleanliness,this would have been an easy 5 star review

It’s such a beautiful hotel with wonderful amenities, however, I have never had such terrible customer service When I first checked in, the receptionist was actually wonderful Checked in, went to my room, went to bed

I was then woken up at 5:30 am to the phone ringing I didn’t answer It rang a second time Still just waking up so I didn’t answer it in time Went back to bed Someone then started knocking on my door, yelling in my room saying “have you checked in?” Mind you, it is 5:30 am and I checked in the previous day at 4 pm for two nights I answer the door and the guy writes my name down and says I wasn’t reserved? So he took my name and said he’ll take care of it I go back to bed and my phone rings AGAIN and I answer it and no one is on the other end Then it rings YET AGAIN and I answer angrily, and they say “do you have a reservation?” To which I said my name and said I will head to the lobby I hang up and they called…again I didn’t answer and went straight to the front desk The receptionist then said “the last receptionist didn’t check you on all the way but I found your reservation and figured it out” and proceeded to give me a voucher for free breakfast For only that morning That I ultimately missed because I was woken up at 5:30 am and it took me a couple hours to fall back asleep after that No other explanation, and no other way to make it right in my eyes So so disappointed
