The location was good. But, our room, with the beds' headboards, was right against the elevator shaft. And yes, it was loud. If you stay there, make sure to request a room away from the elvator. We stayed for 4 nights. TWO of those days the elevator was not working at all for several hours, about 2 to 2.5 hours. We were on the 7th floor. We had to drag our luggage up and down twice. Walk up and down. Without luggage it was already a workout, but not with luggage! They did not even post the out of order signs until a long time later. Breakfast was just okay, times not convenient for a holiday weekend, ended even on a holiday at 9 am.

Neat, but old and smelly
While checking in, two ladies in front of us were complaining about smell and requesting a new room. Our room also smelled. The hotel has old carpets that give off the old cigarette smoke smell. One of two elevators was out of service, causing delays, especially in the morning. The coffee machine at breakfast did not work. Overall, the room was clean and neat, the beds very comfortable. They just need to figure out the smell problem.

Affordable and great location
The facility is an ideal location to DC and the major highways around the area. Parking is free with plenty of space and lights. Beds are surprisingly comfortable. Nice breakfast selection. I will return to stay at this affordable option.

No frills, close to metro
This is the place to stay if you’re looking for a no frills place near one of the outlying metro stations. Not fancy, but an easy 15-20 minute walk to the Van Dorn metro station on the blue line. Access to the city without having to drive all the way in. Great food options just up the road as well. Walkable or drivable (about 1 mile, 15-20ish minutes by foot). Breakfast was offered daily and was okay. Standard hotel eggs, meat, and waffles set up. Only one working elevator through end of 2024 and maybe into 2025. Shower was not great. My only real complaint.

Great stay but low water pressure in our shower.
On a scale of 1 to 10, I would give this hotel a rating of 6. I hate to do that because it should be an 8. We had a great stay and they did everything right except the shower water pressure is extremely low (at least in our room). Each day (we stayed there 4 days) we asked if it could be fixed and we were told they were working on it and it would be fixed by the next day. I guess we were just getting the run around because nothing changed. I hate to say we wished we would have stayed somewhere else because they did everything else so wonderfully (especially the breakfast) but showers are pretty important and my family made fun of me for picking a lame hotel as a result of the water pressure. If I could rate this hotel without including low water pressure issue, again it would have been an 8 (and water pressure would have been a 2).

I’d give this a pass
Really run down property. The housekeeping staff had done their best, but it’s so old and smelly and falling apart. There’s no fan and the windows don’t open so it’s uncomfortably humid. Paint is just peeling away from the walls all over the room, microwave was broken, and the bathroom door had absorbed so much water that the bottom is swollen and cracking and cannot close. Also incredibly loud. 95 and Van Dorn noises all night, you can hear every door in the corridor close all night, and the ceilings are SO thin that people walking can keep you up. Housekeeping vacuuming the room above mine was nearly as loud as if they were in the room with me. Very small room as well which was ok for a single but would have been uncomfortable with 2 people.
