There were a few things that set this so low.

I enjoyed my stay, however it didn’t seem like value for money, breakfast isn’t a buffet and you choose from some muffins, bagel and danish. There’s ample parking if you’re willing to pay extra. The room was okay, felt ‘damp’ and the toilet paper roll was down to quarter with no new rolls in sight. They had liquid soap and I felt it was unsanitary as these are bottles of some substance used by others. I’d prefer the traditional individual wrapped bar of soap.

After requesting at the front desk, the house cleaning crew did not come and replace towels or take garbage. The next day was July 4th and they took the day off. The ice machines on the floors didn't work. You had to come down to the main floor and have someone get from kitchen. The microwave from the common room was missing the one day we needed it, but again, I got to use the one in the kitchen. The place was definitely having some negative issues, but the individual staff we interacted with were friendly. The location is awesome. Despite those setbacks, I would definitely recommend and stay there again. It was clean...

Conveniently located to the Rosslyn Metro and several dining options and grocery store and a Target. Just one stop and you’re in DC and a few more stops to the Museums. Room was clean, a little tight, but most importantly well air conditioned. Kelvin, at the front desk, was overworked, yet was incredibly helpful and kind. No ice machines on the floors, so you have to ask at the front desk. A bit of a musty smell in our room, but the 100 degree temps might not have helped. Complimentary parking the days we were there, so we saved a bunch!

Great location and facilities. The National Mall is a 10-15 minute drive away. The garage is spacious and it’s seamless to get in and out but at the same time it is safe.
My only qualm is with the breakfast. There’s a Starbucks type of coffee as a breakfast venue but there are only selected items are available for the complimentary breakfast, namely sweet pastry or bagels with cream cheese and coffee. For $220+ per night a full continental breakfast wouldn’t be a lot to ask.
Still was worth the price and would recommend for a stay.

Pieces of the ceiling were falling off in the bathroom and there was mold in the shower. The \"continental breakfast\" is a voucher for a pastry and a mini cup of cereal, with better options intentionally displayed next to your selection to try to upsell you. The only redeeming quality was the staff. Everyone working there was very nice and helpful.

Walked in the guy checking us in was focused on the television cussing because the basketball game was a close call . Finally gave us the key card for the parking because he got distracted once again . Then got to the room and the room had an awful stench ( it smelled like old moldy socks ) I overlooked it and went to bed . The morning the toilet was clogged up called downstairs no answer multiple times I had to go down and ask them to check it seems like multiple times people were having similar issues as I met a girl in the bathroom who had experienced this . The bathroom was small . Then breakfast was limited . Overall I paid over $200 for one night and the service was bad the room was outdated and disappointing in all honesty I had high hopes for this hotel . The lobby is really nice and a distraction from the reality of the dated rooms . My biggest issue is they desperately need customer service training

Location, location! Rosslyn is an excellent base for DC activities. Metro a short walk, plenty of good food options, grocery and Target right next door.
Hotel is in serious need of upgrade. Bathroom was pathetically small, single basin sink. Beds were comfortable but we had no linens for the pullout, which had a large stain on mattress which they had to switch out. The conditioner holder in shower was EMPTY! Breakfast is a joke! Little Starbucks counter consists of overpriced egg sandwiches, pastries and cereal. Do yourself a favor and use the Starbucks 2min away. Overall a great moderately priced base for our activities.

No free continental breakfast; the small “cafe” downstairs had limited menu and was overpriced. Parking was safe and convenient (underground garage connected to hotel, need room card to access) and decently priced $30/day with in and out. We didn’t really explore the area (Roslyn) but seemed pleasant and safe enough. Overall, a fantastic choice for easy access to DC without breaking the bank!

We enjoyed our stay. We didnt care for the breakfast. Not enough choices and the coffee was Starbucks which we dont like. So we found other places to eat. The front desk people were great, very helpful and friendly. They helped us find a restaurant and gave us walking directions. We had to ask to have our room cleaned which I thought was irritating. We stayed for a week and feel there should be housekeeping service every day without asking. So of the 8 days we stayed, we got housekeeping to come in 5 of the 8 days, so we left $25 tip for $5 per day that they actually came and cleaned. When they did come they did a good job and we were grateful to have a clean room and towels when we returned for the day. My biggest problem was the bed. Although comfortable, it was so high off the ground that I needed a step stool to get in it. Im 5'2\" and that bed came up to my waist. I could not get into it without a boost, and there was nothing to step on. So that was a little difficult. We also had to pay quite a bit for parking, its NOT free. We enjoyed our stay, but that bed was a deal breaker for next time.

Beautiful hotel with a great comfy bed. Secure parking underground (although it's costly at $29/day). Only issue was that the hotel website reads that Georgetown University is a 15 minute walk which is why we chose this hotel; it took us over 30 minutes. We would have chosen a closer hotel had we known. Of course, we would have also loved to have breakfast at the hotel.
