The rooms were clean and comfortable. The shuttle service to the Balston Metro and free parking for cars is the reason we booked this hotel. When we mentioned the ac in our room was not working properly they immediately upgraded and moved us to a better room. Their service was really prompt .

I was a solo traveler who needed a night to stay at a reasonable price. The room was a bit dated, but the room was clean and tidy. I think the one big issue is noise. The windows are thin and the hotel is adjacent to a busy street so you do hear the odd car with loud speakers roll by. The staff was friendly and helpful. Parking was easy.
