I was in town for business and found this hotel to be a great location to shops and restaurants at Crystal City Shops, Arlington Old Town and a short drive or Metro to DC. If you stay here, you will not be doing wrong. You can take a 4-6 block walk to dining or fun. Easy to get in and out.

I stayed here for a meeting that was held at the Hilton which is next door (the Hilton was out of rooms when I tried to make my reservation). I was very pleased with my stay. The rooms were spacious and clean. The bed was great... best hotel bed on which I have slept. I had a good, reliable wireless internet connection (which was free) throughout my 4-night stay. The staff was very attentive and pleasant. The hotel is very convenient to Reagan National, and the hotel shuttle runs frequently. The only thing that was merely okay was the food. The breakfast bar had a lot of options but the food wasn't particularly spectacular. The room service and restaurant dinner menu were limited. Overall, though, a great stay. I would definitely stay here again.

We checked in quickly and easily. Our room was on the 10th floor. It was very clean. The bed was comfortable. There was some noise from the hallway from the housekeepers in the morning. We went to the pool - the room the heated pool was in was cold, but the pool was warm. The pool itself could use an update, but it was bigger than expected. The whirlpool was hot. There was a life guard. We took the hotel van to the nearby metro station. It was easy to use the van to get to and from the station. The staff was pleasant. There are many sightseeing spots nearby. For example, the Lincoln Memorial is less than 4 miles by car. We ordered pizza and had it delivered from an outside vendor - for security reasons they are not allowed to go to the rooms so we met them in the lobby. The hotel room service menu was limited and didn't offer much for kids. Fortunately, there are several places that deliver nearby (such as Domino's, Papa Johns, Marios, etc.) Overall, it was a great stay and great value for the price with an excellent location for visitors in the DC area.

METRO location is a short walk through the underground mall. Very safe neighborhood. Key required for entry through mall.

No frills but a clean room with reasonably polite service at a reasonable cost. Very conveniently located to Washington DC tourist attractions, shopping, and restaurants. Can pick-up a cab next door at the Hyatt or the Metro just up the road. Parking is $12/day. Good place to stay if in the DC area for a few days.
