DC getaway
This hotel is old and needs a good cleaning. The computers in the business center did not work. The area is not safe for walking. Noisy construction workers were living in some of the rooms. Breakfast was adequate. I would not stay here again.

Sightseeing tip:
Short drive from hotel
Visit Great Falls National Park in MD and VA and also Rock Creek Park. Both are great escapes from the noise and traffic of DC. The American Indian museum was awesome and not crowded.

Fine for a quick stay
My only real issue with the hotel was the lack of elevator. I was on the second floor, and when I asked the front desk where the elevator was the man waved me off and said it was only "a few steps" upstairs. First of all, it was entire flight of stairs (I'd say more than 10 steps) - which is fine if I'm just walking myself up the stairs, but is not fine if I'm trying to drag a 30lb roller bag as well as my large carry on. The railing was not sturdy and once I got to the top of the stairs, there was only a small landing to put down my stuff while trying to open the door, which made for some somewhat scary maneuvering just to get into the hallway. The room was fine and clean - it had a nice tv and a refrigerator, and the bed was comfortable. The surrounding area was not that exciting, but it was accessible to the freeway to get to the more exciting areas in town. The free breakfast was nothing exciting. But it was free. Overall an average experience, but if you are not able to carry 40lbs up a flight of stairs, or are unable to walk up a flight of stairs on your own, I would be sure to ask for a main floor room.

Helpful Staff/ Nice Business Center/Clean Old Bldg
The building is obviously old but is kept clean. Hotel staff very accomodating and helpful. Disappointed that the indoor pool is only open during evening hours (4-10pm) during the week. Business center is nice- separate floor in enclosed area...Toilet in bathroom was very small and low to ground- not a problem for me, but probably not so good for a very large or old person. Breakfast is typical.

Money-saving tip:
Short walk from hotel
Univ or Maryland within easy walking distance. UM has free shuttle buses to the College Park Metro Stn. Doesn't need to be arranged in advance like the hotel courtesy shuttle, and operates extended hours.

eh
This hotel is very average. If you have a room in the main building, it surrounds the pool which can be very noisy at night. Luckily, we were in one of the wings. The restaurant that is attached was less than stellar. It would be ok if cost under $100 a night, but for $100 a night, it was just eh. The tv really didn't work well either. The bathroom was small but served its purpose. But, the staff was friendly. The breakfast was pretty good, nothing hot, but good enough. If they just spent a little more on the details, it would be ok. It is certainly good for families, kids would love the pool and games. We were there on business, not good place for that.
