"I stayed here for a few nights recently because of its proximity to Dulles Airport. Overall, it’s a solid budget hotel that gives you the basics, but it definitely shows its age and management struggles in several areas.
The staff was genuinely kind and helpful, especially when we had problems with our first room. The shower and hot water in the tub didn’t work at all, so they quickly moved us to another room. It was still an annoying inconvenience since we had to repack everything. The bedding was fresh and clean, which was a big plus, and the pool was nicely maintained.
Unfortunately, the property felt understaffed and poorly managed in several ways. The elevators were unreliable—one was broken and the second wouldn’t even go up to the sixth floor. That forced us to take the stairs, which dumped us outside at the back of the hotel with no way to re-enter the main building from there. Not convenient, especially with luggage.
Breakfast was the most chaotic part. The area was terribly managed, and the second the food came out it was like a feeding frenzy. People rushed the buffet and emptied trays quickly. I was apparently the only English speaker there during my stay, and the cultural differences in etiquette around the food were pretty noticeable.
The rooms are basic. The TV is quite outdated—no streaming apps at all, just cable. Fine if you just want to flip channels, but limiting otherwise.
One other note: there are Section 8 apartments right behind the hotel, and parking"
