    Value for money

Cleanliness, convenient location close to metro and restaurants, friendly staff, ample parking.

No issues.

We loved the convenient location, just a short walk to the Metro and close to the Pentagon and airport. The fact that the hotel offered free parking was a big plus for us. Additionally, the breakfast provided a variety of options and the staff was friendly and accommodating.

Nothing, all was good.

The hotel's location is fantastic, with easy access to restaurants, shopping, and the metro. I've been staying at this hotel for over 10 years and it's always been clean and comfortable. The staff is friendly and helpful.

No complaints.
