Courtyard by Marriott Alexandria Pentagon South

During our stay my girlfriend and I traveled to Alexandria and DC. We had a great time in both places. The last day we were there I woke up with all kinds of spots all over my body. We immediately left (early) and drove to my grandfather's home who is a retired physician which was a three hour drive. When we arrived and he contacted my aunt who is an er pediatrician she diagnosed me with an exotic virus. Following this I scheduled a doctors appointment with my primary physician she took a biopsy and I expect to have the results back in 3-4 days from Monday. That is my experience.

The Hotel was very clean, staff was very courteous and helpful. When I had questions on finding things in the area they were very helpful and gave written directions. Everyone was pleasant, the pool looked refreshing even though I didn't get a chance to get in it, but I did use the fitness center, love the equipment very much updated.... When in that area again, I will surely stay there.

Great location--close to I395 and family. The rooms were nice and clean. We even had a view of the capitol! Would certainly choose again.

We booked this hotel over July 4th weekend to see the sights in DC. The hotel provides a shuttle to the metro, which was a great way to get into the city center. Rooms were clean and a good size.. front desk staff was very friendly and attentive. All in all, a great place to stay when you want a cheaper (and quieter!) alternative to some of the hotels in DC itself. Would definitely stay there again!

The hotel was fine. The rooms were very clean and the maid service was excellent. The shuttle service to the Metro station was awesome! My only complaint regards the bar and resturant which were closed on Friday and Saturday nights! I thought that this was strange. We were looking forward to eating in the Hotel and relaxing after a long day of sightseeing and then had to walk across the street for pizza. Also I wanted a cup of coffee and was informed that the coffee maker is put away after breakfast. Now how hard would it be to keep a fresh pot of coffee going for weary travelers?

Staff were very well informed. Customer service was excellent. Location was a bit hard to find and off the beaten path. Overall room was very good. Bed was comfortable.

From the moment I walk in my experince was great with the staff. I had a lot of questions about the area and they were very helpful. The appearance in the lobby was extermly clean. I went to my room and along the way was greeted by friendly housekeeping staff in the hallways. My room was so big and opened. I had a king size bed that felt like I was sleeping on a cloud. The bathroom was a good size area, very clean and the towels were very soft. I am a single women traveling and in this hotel I felt very comfortable and secure.

I liked this hotel. Very possible that I will be back to Courtyerd in future.

We were in the area to help my brother find an apartment for 2 months for an internship. Found this hotel on the internet for a better price than most other hotels in the area. Didn't try out the food (breakfast buffet was like $13) or the pool, so can't comment on those, but they looked nice! People were nice and friendly. Felt safe leaving car in parking deck because you had to use a key to enter. Only negative was that it was $10 to park. It seems like it would be difficult to get to the hotel without GPS, though, which I used.

The hotel staff was outstanding! They were very helpful with providing insight to the tourist spots and didn't hesitate to provide great recommendations.
