Everything worked out very well and the service was very friendly. We were in room 307. It would be great if you could replace the bathroom fan as it was very noisy. The location was perfect for us as we had business at the VHC.

Good value and good location

Great value for Money...it's fifteen minutes walk from train station to DC and they even have a shuttle for every hour. It was a simple hotel, yet it was very spacious and staff was nice and helpful. They also have free parking...very rare in the region. Main downside is that the breakfast area is too small for the size of the hotel...it gets tricky. I would stay here again.
