The staff was extremely friendly and the hotel was very nice and convenient to local ammenities. The shuttle drivers were extremely helpful and willing to take us anywhere we needed to go and was happy to come get us when we were ready to go back to the hotel. The breakfast was great and overall, I would stay here again! It is convenient to the Metro also. « less

I stayed one night in Alexandria and picked the Holiday Inn for it's location within 15 minutes of the airport. Treated very nicely at reception. The room was clean and quiet. Got a burger from room service and it was excellent. Kept the AC running all night as I like a cool room and it also keeps out any unwanted noise. It was quiet in the room even without the AC. « less

Good location. Quiet. Beds have some kind of rubber-like pad under the sheet which makes it hot when you sleep. My husband left some clothes in a drawer and called to see if they had been found. We never got a call back, but when we stopped by at 10pm that night, someone went up to the cleaned room and found them still in the drawer! Yuck. « less

Oh dear! It appears that we had a major oversight with your stay and for that, we absolutely owe you an apology. Your comments have been seen and will be heard and reviewed with the departments that are responsible please rest assured of that. Oversights absolutely happen from time to time and of course we strive to ensure they do not occur often. Every once in while things do slip through the cracks and we do our very best to recover when that happens. Thank you very much for letting us know that this situation occurred so we can make sure it does not happen again.
It sounds as though some of our features simply weren't the right fit for you and while we cannot fix it for this stay we can absolutely resolve them for your next stay if you give us that chance. The bed, for example, can have the topper removed if you let us know that is not a feature you would like in your room. Please do let us know the next time you are in town, we would love to try and have you leave here 100% satisfied with our hotel.
Thank you again for all of your comments, we appreciate knowing exactly where we can improve!

The staff was friendly and very helpful. The hotel has a shuttle and they were always willing to take us to Old town and were also helpful coordinating our return trip to the airport. They also took us to other places close by such as a grocery store. That along with a nearby Metro stop make the hotel at a convenient location. The only negative comments we could make are no free breakfast like most hotels have these days and the decor was a little outdated. All in all it was a pleasant stay and we would come back. « less

Thank you for such great comments! Because our hotel is located in what could be described as a 'business district', we understand our guests will have other needs besides access to the metro, which simply can't stop at a store if you need something to snack on. Our shuttle drivers are an important part of our family here and are absolutely willing to go out of their way to get you where you need to go to ensure you enjoy your stay and have everything you need to make your vacation a great one!
Please let us know when you're coming back and we will have our best drivers waiting at the airport to pick you up! It's what we are here for!

Testimonials: Why use Hotel Planner?
"It was great. We had searched for rooms on our own and were unsuccessful. Thank you for a spectacular service!" H.B. - Long Island, NY
"Kudos to Jackie, and many thanks to your service. I never would have known about that particular hotel, and even if I eventually did find it, it would have taken me days to accomplish what I did in 15 minutes with you. Now our entire group can look forward to a care-free stay at the perfect rate at the perfect location. I've never been this organized this far in advance of an event, so thanks for making me look good!" K.S. - Vancouver, WA
