Positives: Clean and fairly spacious rooms. Great location near public transportation and close to attractions.

Negatives: Room had sleep number bed, but motor was broken for 1/2 of the bed and could not be adjusted.

Pro's The hotel was extremely nice looking: the beds were extremely comfortable, there was a fridge/microwave, overall the room and lobby was great. Con's I do wish the pool had been a little deeper only 5 feet deep at the deepest part. My one big problem with the hotel was the staff. When we first got there they offered to take our bags up to our room and 3 hours later they still hadn't arrived. I called down to find out where they were and they lost them! They did find them again but its just the principle of the thing. Some of the staff were much less then satisfactory, but others were really nice.

Positives: The hotel was very nice looking and the beds were fantastic (sleep).

Negatives: Some of the staff weren't as nice and helpful as I would have liked.

Very convenient location to DC and environs. Very close to Metro, shopping, eating. But rooms are dated, not especially clean. Towels are a little threadbare (like entire hotel). Staff is friendly but sometimes has trouble communicating. If location is everything, and you get a very good deal on the price of hotel, this is a good choice. Otherwise, look elsewhere, you can do much better.

Positives: Location.

Negatives: Beds were awful, room too small for two double beds, need refurbishing.

Couldn't have a better hotel for the price. Two blocks to the metro and $1.35 and a few minutes and I was in DC. Very nice and clean, friendly staff. Room was just a little above standard. Not too happy that the bathroom door wouldn't latch.

Positives: Great price, close/easy to Metro, helpful staff.

Negatives: Bathroom door was broken. Parking a bit pricy.

Positives: Great location-near the airport. Has airport shuttle, too!

Negatives: Lots of traffic and had some difficulty to get in hotel.

The hotel is within 5-minute walk from Crystal City Metro Station and about 20-minute from Pentagon City Mall. Nice neighborhood to go for a jog too. The hotel room is generally clean and cozy. Gym facilities are ok except that during my period of stay, the treadmill machines weren't functioning properly. Overall, the 5-night stay was very pleasant.

Positives: Pleasant environment, central located and cozy bed.

Negatives: General cleanliness is ok, but equipments such as coffee maker and microwave are not that clean.

Our stay was very nice. It would have been helpful if they would have had small metro maps available in the lobby. When we checked in, the front desk said the breakfast was served until 11 a.m. and did not mention a price. Having stayed at a Radisson the weekend before that had a free breakfast, we went to the restaurant on our last morning for what we thought was a free, quick bite. We each grabbed a bagel and got our own juice. There was virtually no wait-staff visible. After we ate, a server appeared and gave us a bill for $28.00. Needless to say we would have walked a block to Dunkin' Donuts and eaten much cheaper. However, this was a great place, with a great location and great rooms. I will definitely stay again. Just be alert about the breakfast!

Positives: Location was great. Rooms were comfortable and clean.

Negatives: Breakfast was over-priced.

The overall experience of this hotel was good. The staff was curteous and helpful. The $18 a day parking fee was outlandish. The food was a little bland, but the waffle/omelet bar was nice. The treadmills needed to be calibrated very badly. The pool looked nice, but was empty when I attended. I would stay there again.

Positives: The hotel staff was extremely friendly and helpful.

Negatives: The fitness room is outdated.

Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 11 Sep 2008 rated 10 out of 10.

The staff at this hotel are exceptionally helpful and friendly. The sleep number beds are preferable to those in most hotels because the firmness can be adjusted to accommodate individual preferences. The room was just a bit small to facilitate easy access to items packed in larger luggage pieces.

Positives: The staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful.

Negatives: The room was just a bit too small.

I arrived very late at 1am. I was in my room within 10 minutes of my arrival. There are many places open in the wee hours to eat or night life. At the same token it is very quiet and great for anyone on business. A very convenient location.

Positives: The hotel attendant was extremely accommodating and pleasant.

Negatives: The room was a little musky from humidity and AC not on.

We went to the zoo via the DC Metro, a three block walk to the Metro. It was a good value and our grandsons (1 and 3) first stay in a hotel. The staff was very professional and helpful. The food in the restaurant was better than expected. The rooms were very nice, the sleep number beds were a little weird to get used to but ok.

Positives: Room prices were an outstanding value.

Negatives: Nothing.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 01 Sep 2008 rated 8 out of 10.

The hotel is great for business travel, good price and location for family vacation as well. Nice fitness room.

Positives: The food was very good. Good location to DC.

Negatives: My drinking glasses were not clean at all! Concerned of over all cleaning?

I picked the Radisson because it offered a Metro shuttle and was one stop from the airport. So I arrive at Crystal City Metro stop mid afternoon and call and they say it is coming. 15 minutes later I call and they say it is coming. 15 minutes later they just put me on hold and didn't pick up again. I finally found where it was and walked to the hotel. The desk staff could have cared less. There are lots of other good choices at the airport.

Positives: It was clean and convenient to DCA.

Negatives: They lie that they have a Metro shuttle.

Reviewer: Not provided on Sat 30 Aug 2008 rated 8 out of 10.

Very conveniently located, a 2-block walk from a Metro station. The hotel is as good as most I have used on business travel. There were a couple of tiny problems, like the closet door being off the track, but I'd definitely stay there again. The only disappointment was the food - a room service meal arrived cold, and the complimentary coffee service ran out pretty early. All in all, a great value.

Positives: Very convenient location.

Negatives: Food was not as good as I expected.
