Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 14 Aug 2008 rated 8 out of 10.
10 Minutes Metro ride for less than $3.00 & free parking. Have breakfast out, couldn't be any worse that the buffet. No fan speed on HV/AC can be loud during the night. I would go back if needed to return to the area.
Positives: Parking was free on Friday & Saturday Nights.
Negatives: Metro & Shopping mall 2 blocks away.
Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 11 Aug 2008 rated 10 out of 10.

Good location, clean, attractive, comfortable, and very affordable. I was impressed that a Holiday Inn provided such high quality rooms.
Positives: Good location, clean, attractive, comfortable, and very affordable.
Negatives: Would have liked certain facilities to stay open after 10 PM.
Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 16 Jul 2008 rated 8 out of 10.
Nice, clean, well run hotel, with friendly and accommodating staff. Room was spacious, well kept and at the level expected for the star rating. While located within 3 blocks of the metro, during the weekend there were few restaurants/activities nearby - requiring a decent walk/metro trek. Bonus: Next to nice running trail.
Positives: Nice hotel with clean/decent rooms, good service, and reasonably close access to the Metro.
Negatives: Not many restaurants or activities within short walking distance - especially during weekend.
Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 09 Jul 2008 rated 8 out of 10.
The hotel is ok, but the location is not very good. The bad thing in the hotel is that the conditioner is noise.
Positives: Friendly.
Negatives: The location is not very good.
Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 09 Jul 2008 rated 8 out of 10.
Biggest plus: A short, 2-block walk to the Ballston Metro station. The walk is direct, on one straight and level street (very convenient with heavy rolling luggage). Internet access is not dependable - try asking at check-in how to make sure that the connection doesn't spontaneously disconnect on you. The room itself was clean and new - big, bright bathroom, adjustable quiet air conditioning, and soft carpets (read: not sticky).
Positives: Carpet was soft and clean (not sticky), bathroom was bright and big enough for 2 to use simultaneously.
Negatives: Internet connection did not work continuously, even though we were plugged in with their cable. It disconnected spontaneously & wouldn't reconnect.
Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 08 Jul 2008 rated 10 out of 10.
I will visit this hotel again.
Positives: Excellent.
Negatives: No shuttle to Washington DC.
Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 30 May 2008 rated 9 out of 10.
Convenient to Metro rail & bus system so easy access to all DC area attractions, airports, restaurants and shopping. Safe area. Some shopping and restaurants in walking distance as well. Great value. No rental car necessary to see it all on our four-day sightseeing trip. There are better locations, but this one was fine for the price.
Positives: Location. Staff. Cleanliness. Free wired internet. Late checkout granted with no fee.
Negatives: No complaints.
Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 30 May 2008 rated 10 out of 10.
It was a nice stay. I just didn't like paying for parking, but it is free on Friday and Saturday.
Positives: Location not too far from 395.
Negatives: Have to pay for parking.
Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 07 May 2008 rated 5 out of 10.
This is a solid two star hotel based on cleanliness and in-room amenities. It is not a three star hotel. The room furnishings and decoration are mid-level quality. The common areas are small and suitable for a traveler who is mainly interested in getting to the room. Staffed like you would expect from a road side Holiday Inn, no special services, no food available late, etc.
Positives: Clean.
Negatives: Restaurant closed too early.
