The staff are friendly and well-mannered My room was on the top floor and was spacious, clean, and comfy The high ceiling had an automated sun-shade, but it didn’t work at the time so that was a bummer

Check-in and check-out were a breeze I would stay again for sure My only nitpick is the parking It’s a little tight depending on where you park

Dale Nelson

I hope the staff reads this, thank you, thank you, thank you for everything the week I stayed here I arrived on a red eye at 8am and they made accommodations to get a room ready so I could get some sleep before my event I was attending at 4pmThe room was excellent and comfortable, the AC worked great! The TV and internet were excellent, the hotel was clean and the bed was perfect! The staff was always professional and an amazing help! Very approachable and easy to talk to

Thanks for everything!

As much as I would like to leave a good review, I cannot Check-in was quick and easy, and the gentleman at the front desk was super nice He presented us with our room key, and we proceeded to our room

When entering the room it was extremely hot, as if the heat was on; though it was not My sister started to spray everything down with Lysol (seeing as though COVID is still going) and noticed that there were specks or dirt on her bed along with strands of hair We made our way back to the front desk where we spoke with a young lady who was there with the gentleman who initially checked us in We explained our issue, and she swapped us to another room My sister and I made our way to our new room (327), where we entered and started to check everything out I was highly disappointed Between the stains on my pillows, my bed skirt, and then the coffee pot, and ice bucket being in the bathroom; I was ready to leave!!!! I called down to the front desk spoke to the young lady (not sure if it was the same young lady who moved us already or not) and was told that there were no more rooms available I hung up and called nine other hotels that were in the area No one had any rooms available, as we were told that there was a college graduation that had all their rooms booked My sister and I went downstairs and asked for extra towels and sheets so that we could try to figure something out A gentleman brought some up, and my sister helped me change the sheets on my bed I placed the pillows on the floor and just used the towels as something to lay my head on when sleeping I stay at plenty of Marriotts throughout the country, but being at this Marriott was very uncomfortable, and I just wasn’t happy with cleanliness of the rooms at all It’s not at all how I expected to spend my Mother’s Day weekend, that my children and niece planned for my sister and I I wouldn’t recommend staying here at all

Tasha Deitz

This was a great family vacation The hotel was moderately clean, I did find some random garbage in my room down by the beds However, the service was fantastic, especially the woman working the front desk the morning of 4/14 and 4/15/22

Breakfast was amazing we did get breakfast vouchers with our room when booking I would absolutely stay here again, anytime

Anthony

I stayed here for two nights Check in was pleasant and the property honored my Spire Elite status by leaving a note and goodies inside the room and allowing me to checkout late The location is great being right in the heart of Ballston

The room and parking rates are less than nearby hotels Although the service was good, I’m only giving it four stars because the bed wasn’t particularly comfortable and the walls seemed thinned enough to hear into the next room and the housekeeping in the hallway was disturbing because of this

Robert Norris

Just okay Pillows in the room were either completely flat or hard as a brick I found one out of 8 that was barely acceptable

The biggest negative is the breakfast that starts at 7 am That’s too late when you have to be at work at 8 in DC I do commend that they have a made to order breakfast, but it needs to start at 6 am Room itself wasn’t bad and the bed was decent Final negative is $16 a day for parking

Michael Kosenski

The staff are wonderful and friendly The night manager whom we dealt with both nights could not have been more helpful, more friendly, or more professional, he was a pleasure to work withBreakfast in the morning was very good – all fresh and well prepared

The breakfast attendants were great, especially the woman who personally made my wife a waffle and brought it over to us, with a warm smile and a pat on the shoulderThe location is a little far from DC, but it’s a very easy drive to and fro on 66 so it was well worth the drive to get peace, quiet, free parking, and free breakfastThe grounds are very nice It’s all outside entrances which makes it easier to come and go Also, it was very nice that they had the pool cleaned and the fountains on, even though it’s closed to swimming It just made the grounds so much more inviting, and it’s not something they had to do, so it was greatly appreciatedWe’ll definitely return!

John O’Neill

We just had an excellent three night stay Very nice room , quiet , everything was very clean and in working order The breakfast selection was good every morning

Plenty of parking and a great location You can catch a bus right accross the street to get to the MetroThe staff were all very pleasant and efficient All in all a great place to stay I only wish it had been a summer visit so we could have what looked to be a great pool

Gloria Castro

Especially good was the breakfast that was included and the hostess/server was very pleasant and friendly The front desk personnel was also very niceThe only negative we found was the wall to wall carpeting in the lobby

It needs to be replaced It had a slight odor and the striped pattern made it difficult to walk on when going down the steps

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!

Gina E

The hotel and the room were very clean The bed sheets were spotless and the bed was very comfortable The only thing that I think could have been better is letting the customers know about any allergens in the complimentary breakfast

I asked a staff member about this and she wasn’t sure so she got the manager for me which was great, however, I had to wait a while I think it would be great if the ingredients and allergens were visible for customers to see Other than that I think the hotel and staff were excellent I appreciate that the breakfast dining area was available for customers after breakfast and it was kept very clean I also I appreciate that complimentary coffee, tea, and hot chocolate were available in the lobby area I called saying that I would be late and someone was there to do my check-in when I arrived very late in the evening

Carol Tompkins

Our stay was excellent! Staff & Manager very helpful whenever I had a request Breakfast was not only good, but the staff did a great job cleaning & disinfecting throughout the entire breakfast hoursRoom was clean & cool

Definitely recommend

Gregory Hones

Was looking for a place to stay near DC at a reasonable rate This place is was fairly reasonable pricing for a quality brand One nice thing is the free parking

The hotels in DC wanted anywhere from $30 to $48 per night!Very good breakfast selection and nice selection of TV channels Beds were a bit stiff for my liking but otherwise was an enjoyable stay

Michelle Walton

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

Spiral Tote

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

Bethany Beck

This hotel is not in Alexandria They charge a $100 “refundable” fee on top of your room fee for incidentals This is not even noted on your room charge recipes

So I hope I am not going to be scammed out of $100 The first room we had smelled horribly of marijuana We had to ask to move rooms as there is no way I would stay in that room The hotelHas been updated but there are some things that were not replaced The bathroom door did not close The pool water was cloudy and the hot tub was closed The towels had hair on them The breakfast was decent We only stayed here for one night so it was good enough There area is a little sketchy as it is on the “other side” of the highway from Alexandria Staff was friendly

Cary Paul

The staff was great That’s about it The first room I received was across from the hotel’s laundry

It was extremely hot Couldn’t get the temp inside the room below 78 degrees The second room was better The area is unsafe While I was there a car was broken into and someone’s truck was stolen a few days later People yelling all night outside the hotel, traffic and fire trucks all night, It was loud all the time I could hear people talking in the hall and in the rooms next to meThere is large gaps under the doors so you hear everything I wouldn’t pay to stay here I found a roach crawling around and there is an ant problem The guy in the room next to me was spraying bug killer around his room He said he went a bought some Spend your money someplace else

Samantha Willows

We stayed here on our visit to DC A good choice, the breakfast was subpar (there were no make your own waffles, probably for sanitary reasons, and the sausages and eggs were not particularly delicious) but the rooms were clean and it was fairly quiet The carpets could use a good deep clean, but that’s the case with anything that gets foot traffic

I have absolutely nothing negative to say about this hotel This hotel “understood the assignment” when it came to true customer service Booked this hotel for my senior parents visiting from southern VA

Front desk, friendly, polite and smiled every – single – day They immediately, with no problems, upgraded my parents room to a studio because my dad was weary of staying on a floor above 3 The boxed breakfasts were nutritious, delicious and high in protein The hotel was spotless and smelled nice and fresh All hand sanitizer stations were filled and usable No hassle parking From the complementary bedroom slippers, to the bottled water, just and all around EXCEPTIONAL experience Great location My parents were very pleased and LOVED the comfortable bed They also felt very safe in the area I HIGHLY recommend this hotel, especially for seniors

Michael Gracey

I stayed for two nights (Friday/Saturday) to extend some work travel while taking advantage of a discount offered by the hotel Staff handled check-in courteously and expeditiously Complimentary parking was located in garage across from hotel (would have been nice to know on email confirmations)

My room happened to be in a corner on the second floor The room was predictably clean I appreciated a couple of small things such as complimentary bottled water, Malin&Goetz bath amenities, and a couple of books for reading if I was interested (I was not but appreciated the gesture) The bed and sofa both had firmer feels than other hotels at which I have stayed (Both were acceptable though and maybe understandable given their newness with the renovation) The shower design somehow encourages water to pool rather than drain, so I hope something can be done maintenance wise as they renovate Road noise is noticeable until midnight, so I would request a room at a higher floor and facing away from Lee HighwayPrices at first glance do not seem terribly unreasonable without the discount (hopefully they will stay reasonable after the renovations finish later this year) All in all the location proves a great reason to stay for a night or two and eat through Mosaic and surrounding restaurants within walking distance and movie watching at the Angelika One could feel good supporting a boutique hotel brand staying here

Jessica Kim

Excellent location and most importantly excellent hospitality The location was fantastic and accommodated our late check in request The room was in good condition and left a very nice gift basket for us to enjoy my promotion

This made this hotel outstanding I would love to visit this location again after their remodeling is complete Thank you so much for a wonderful experience

We stayed at this hotel for my birthday weekend and was very happy with the stay Captain managed the front desk during my stay, and he was extremely friendly and helpful! He even went above and beyond to make my birthday night special The other front desk staff was just as nice and helpful

I had no complaints about my room that was a standard size, everything worked as it should, and most importantly clean We had a drink at the bar/restaurant and the bar’s hostess was great toowe enjoyed her! I am very picky and boujee about my hotel and would return to this hotel It is in a great location surrounded by a mall, restaurants, and a quick drive to the DC area! Thank you for assisting with making my birthday a success!

Zachariah Mathew

Beautiful hotel, clean and good rooms We stayed here for a family reunion The beds are comfortable, the pillows are good, the a/c works well with no issues

The bathroom is a decent size Bath soaps and shampoos are decentBut the best thing about this hotel is the staff Alina was very helpful She tried her best to accommodate our family in spite of a huge wedding group staying here at the same time Captain was also great!! He is friendly and charming When you come across hotel staff who welcome you with friendly smiles and want to help you have a great stay, that means a lot to a customerThank you so much, Alina and Captain!!!!

A pleasant surprise! I’m in town with my two sons to celebrate my birthday and my company’s first podcast covering the Commanders While walking down the hallway with my boys, my youngest son mention that it’s my birthday while walking past an employee I return from FedEx Field to a pleasant surprise

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

Gerrit Smith

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

Great hotel and amazing staff We stayed here for 2 weeks The hotel staff really cared, were so friendly, and very helpful

The restaurant has a great menu and the sushi chefs were superb The pool was very nice, and the gym had everything a person needs The hotel beds were very comfortable The staff that worked at the hotel marketplace were always so nice and friendly I highly recommend this hotel

Jasmine Hanonu

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

Tali Norby

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

Tyler Knupp

Ants Everything was fine with this hotel and my stay until I started eating my dinner at the table/desk in the room and then notice little ants coming all different directions towards my food I then search over the entire desk/table and find and kill about 25 ants

I then clean the table/desk with a wet towel and the towel ended up brown/black Rooms are renovated but shows they cannot even keep the new furnishings cleanOther then the ants the room the room was relatively clean with cold AC and no bad or musty smell in the room Gave a 4 only because of the updated rooms and distance to the national mall or it would have been a 3Even though I shouldI didn’t use the gym but it looks very empty equipment wise Apparently hotel has a outdoor pool McDonald’s right next door was clutch and ants would probably agreeI have come to accept choice hotels either have bugs in the room or the rooms are outdated or both and again sadly I was not disappointed with this stay with those expectations

Troy Brown

Overall, not a bad place to stay if you just need a place to sleep Staff was friendly at check-in, bed was comfortable, good location Had AC as cold as it would go for two days and it barely kept the room from feeling warm

The bathroom door squealed loud enough anytime it moved to wake other people in the room Room had a couple floor to ceiling cracks, hallway carpet was stained, and the elevator was beat up and a little sketchy

The rooms are remodeled and nice The outside need to be renovated The halls need attention too

They were working on it but it isn’t done They had a big school crowd It’s important to plan for this during breakfast time We just left and went to get our own breakfast at Denny’s But I would stay here again because the room was comfortable

This will be a mixed review The hotel two queen beds and room was very large and liked having the small kitchen type area With a couch, chair and end tables and coffee table, with the two queens was very nice

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

Nice rooms! The staff are friendly and professional — quite kind, in fact, and were good listeners/seemed to care/treated me with respect Staying here was a wonderful experience The weekend got a bit busy with people in the breakfast area, but that’s how it goes on weekends at places, of course

No real complaints from me Good breakfast choices At my request, I was moved to another room too (I did not like my first neighbors) That’s above and beyond what is expected, in my opinion Very happy to have stayed here It was a bit of solace from an otherwise hectic lifeThe location is convenient for walking too 7-11, Burger King, and an Asian grocery store (among other places) are within walking distance of the hotel!

Phillip Funtulis

The staff at this Fairfax location is very accommodating and friendly Julio, for instance, is very hospitable, remembers former visitors, and treats them with courtesy and kindness He also goes out of his way to accommodate requests

The same can be said for other employees I’ve metThis Hampton Inn also peaceful for being in such a convenient location, near ample amenities and main roads Moreover, they have comfortable beds, and their soaps and other resources are very good If you forget a toothbrush or toothpaste, they have you covered Their continental breakfast isn’t bad either I enjoyed my stay here, and if I need to stay in a hotel in Fairfax, this Hampton Inn is my first choice

Diamond Chavis

The hotel was lovely and the renovations look wonderful Staff during my stay were very helpful and kind I did confuse myself a bit during check in (I didn’t know adding cards doing digital check in didn’t change the reservation card) and I went down to the lobby desk to change the cards

When I saw my check out receipt with the wrong card, the gentleman downstairs at the front desk switched the cards and gave me an updated receipt with the correct information I thought the charge would be cleared off (this was Wednesday) It did yesterday (Thursday 05/26) then I was charged completely on my original card today (Friday 05/27) with my other card still pending When I called today to get this cleared up, I felt the woman I talked to was not listening to my concerns and was dismissive She kept talking over me when I was asking questions when allI wanted to know was how did they manage to charge one card knowing I asked for the other one to be charged instead So now I’m waiting for five to seven business days for my money to come back I liked everything about my stay, but this kind of soured my experienceEdit: Money is back After some reflection, changed from three to four stars Stay was still really great regardless of the few mishaps had

I stay here often for work and it’s truly been my home away from homeCustomer service at the front desk is Excellent! Haley is always welcoming and nice Today she even helped me with ordering room service

Food: I am a picky eater but my meal was delicious , fresh and hotRooms: Spacious, Clean and I always get a good night sleep Beds and pillows are comfortable

All I do is travel and stay at hotels – with that being said – this is a very nice hotel in a very good location It’s not right by a DC/Tyson’s corner – but it is very centrally located if your plans are not DC bound Plenty of restaurants nearby and they have PURE rooms – which are hypoallergenic – and they work wonderfully! The front desk manager – Stephan – very nice, knowledgeable and ultra helpful

I especially enjoyed the slower pace and the peace/quiet/comfort – it’s as if I unplugged for a great weekend and came back to work recharged It’s not brand new – but it’s newerIf you’re in the mood for the same – come on in and enjoy!

Edythe Frankel Kelleher

Nice clean rooms on the large side We’ve been here a few times, and last time we had a corner space that was divided into two rooms so that wasn’t bigger but it was nice Decor is fine, funny how terrazzo counters are in again! Kitchen area equipped but items were missing

Breakfast is limited but good Location is only convenient if you’re driving, it’s walkable to a few not-so-great restaurants Aldi and a drugstore Lots more in the Mosaic District but that’s too long a walk for some Metro not too far, but not really walkable either

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

Will Lunsford

Hotel is decent but they have the absolute worst bed’s of any hotel I’ve slept in the last 10 years Options are full size or king If you’re coming with a family forget about it

In addition the beds are extremely uncomfortable Would not recommend based on the beds alone I’ve stayed in multiple hotels in this area including embassy suites, comfort inn, Marriot, etc and while the appearance of this hotel is great the comfort inn offers a better night sleep

Maria Hussion

Well I wanted to stay here, as we travel through town with our kids I called to make a reservation , when I asked to have an adjoining room so we could have our kids in their own beds we were told they couldn’t guarantee that the rooms would be adjoined I explained the situation and how we needed to know our children would be in a connecting room I was pretty much told “sorry, not sorry

” I was not calling the day of check-in either, I was calling weeks before we wanted to check-in

Young Kim

We are here for just one night as a staycation for Memorial Day weekend using our free Marriott night Our 2 double room is quite spacious with a separate living space Very clean

The main reason we chose this place was for the indoor heated pool We definitely chose the WRONG weekend to come here I guess there’re many guests here for a soccer tournament; the pool was super small with minimum 8-13 middle school boys jumping, splashing, being really rowdy I complained to the front desk and they were very responsive and came down to remedy the situation twice This was not the hotels fault so it’s not going to affect my rating and to be fair it’s not those kids’ fault either but it was just tough for my 3 and 4 yr olds to enjoy relaxing pool time overall it’s going to be a good stay
