In all the hotels/motels I've stayed at in the past few years (and there's been alot between college tours, visits, trips etc), this hotel was the absolute best. The room was so clean I was able to walk around barefoot and not have to worry about my feet getting dirty. This has been the only place I was able to do that. All other places I had to wear slides. The room was the best room also, in regards to having a full kitchen with dishes, utencils, overall space, etc. I have never had a room like this before. My daughter and I wished we were staying for a week. Price was extremely reasonable and the staff was fantastic. I asked if we could have early check-in since we were there to attend my nephews Master's Degree graduation and it was the same day as we were checking in and the ceremony was 3pm which is the normal check in time. The lady at the desk was so understanding and said the room I booked (king size bed) was not available and If I would mind changing rooms so we could be accommodated. I wish all the places we stayed were this great. I will look for this name hotel in future travel. I would give them 10 STARS if I could

We stayed in the suite with the queen bed. The room and bathroom are very small. The bed is pushed between two walls and is definitely not a queen size, more like a double and very uncomfortable. The bathroom was dated and not in the greatest condition. The kitchenette is nice, if needed. The staff is quite unfriendly and there is no breakfast, only free coffee. We will not stay here again when going back to Alexandria.

The only thing that was not pleasant was being able to hear other people pretty clearly. There was a vent in the bathroom and sometimes it felt like they were in the same room as me.
