    location was great staff in hotel. Front desk woman was sitting in the guest lobby in a guest chair looking at her phone when we got up that morning instead of being behind the front desk. The restaurant waiter forgot our orange juice at breakfast and our room had a weird smell to it....and noticed a fruit fly kind of bug flying in the room.

    Location, Location, Location. The hotel is very clean. It was nice to have on-sight and easily accessible parking. The room was only provided with one towel each. Most hotels provide 2 per person. The room safe did not work which should have been checked BEFORE we checked in. As we only use it on our way out of the room we didn't realize it was inoperable until we were leaving for our reservation, so the hotel's offer to fix it was moot. When we checked in, the front desk personnel did not explain that the key card was needed in the elevator.

    The location was great. Walking distance to King street and all the food and shops. The restaurant was just ok. What annoyed me was that my wife and I went for breakfast and they tacked on a 20% tip with saying anything. I had to ask what the charge was for. Also $30 per day parking is steep.

    Lovely hotel and great location. Room was very stylish and clean. Parking is convenient and has an elevator directly to the floors above. The rate is $42 and allows in and out of the garage with no additional fee. There are parking garages nearby and if lucky street parking if you don't want the to pay the high price. The only objection I have is the Amenity fee charge of $25 which was not explained to me and could have been used towards the a la carte breakfast.

He was trested very special when he let them know he just turned 80! He is ready to go back and take my mom for their 59th wedding anniversary!

    Hotel is great, and staffs are friendly. I just wish they are up front with the hidden amenity fee + tax. I'm more than willing to pay for it if the charges are up front or included in the price. Deceptive tactics are bad for Hotel Indigo brand. I'm glad not all IHG brand does that.

    The $42 parking fee per day for a limited number of tiny compact parking spaces is ridiculous. Guests at this property are forced to pay an unexpected $25 amenity fee/day in exchange for overpriced junk food at the front desk. I was terribly disappointed with my stay.

    Parking was not included with reservation. Vehicle info was required with check-in. Very misleading. No notice. The room itself was clean, but very small. The parking garage was a joke. The attendants were not helpful. I had to check out early due to a possible gas leak. The hotel did not reach out to discount my stay or at the very least comp the parking.

    OK...I guess it's on me...that buried in the fine print of a secondary web page, they have a $28.88 extra fee, per day, when you show up. I hate patronizing places that hide fees like this. Look on Expedia and try to find it. The guy said "Haven't you heard of a resort fee." Well, yeah...but; there are no extra amenities for their fee...except you get $15 credit, per day, on their overpriced chips and stuff down in the lobby. We were there 3 days before we realized there was a fridge in the room. It looks like a small chest of drawers, with 2 fake drawers on the front. There is no microwave in the room, They are relatively cheap these days and would be a good addition. There is a Keurig coffee machine in the room, stocked with 2 regular coffees. They also had decaf and tea...so, we picked up some extra coffee at the CVS They put a $100 hold / per day on your credit card...so, $800 hold for our stay...a few days past our stay, if that is a concern for you. Other than that, it's a great place to stay. Bonus: Find Jack's Place for value priced great eats. We had breakfast there 2 times, picked up breakfast sandwiches 3 times for the metro ride, had burgers one day and Cheesesteak sandwiches and a bulgogi rice bowl another day. Between the free trolley / circulator buses and the Metro subway, we didn't need a car.

Once we were able to adjust the thermostat it took a while for the room to cool down. It made for a restless first night. Otherwise great stay! Very close to King and great restaurants.

I can't say enough positive things about this hotel and staff. One small thing, the bathrooms are very dimly light. Other than that, a solid 10! Oh, and the breakfast is not free but it is reasonably priced in the restaurant.

    We had a girls weekend and was extremely happy with our accommodations. Rooms were spacious and clean! Beds were comfortable. There are so many excellent options for meal, shopping and historical landmarks, tours, waterfront, all within walking distance. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The parking garage is on duke street under the hotel. Even though it maybe full let the attendant know that you are a guest of the hotel. There is space for you. The only downside was the amenity fees at the end of our stay, partly because we didn't understand the process. I would suggest that you ask questions, because you get charged this fee per room every night. Good thing we got items from the snack area, which used the fees to pay. Other than that it is a wonderful place to stay.

    The hotel’s location was excellent. We parked when we arrived and only needed the car once in four days. The staff were wonderful, and I’d absolutely recommend staying here again. My only suggestion would be to update the mattress in our room, especially since it’s one of the upgraded categories because we could feel some springs while sleeping. Aside from that, everything else was perfect.

    1. They charge a $25 a day amenity fee, which can be offset by taking snacks from their snack bar, which is weird. 2. Parking at this place isn't worth the headache. Either take a Lyft or walk from the Metro. With all that being said, my stay was great. I stayed in room #307. Great floor to ceiling windows with a view of the waterfront. Plenty of restaurants/bars just a block away. Check in and check out was a breeze. I didn't try the hotel restaurant, but the wife and I did enjoy sitting out on the hotel patio in the late afternoon. I would definitely stay here again.

    Best location on the Potomac and in the heart of Old Town Alexandria. Chadwick’s restaurant is just out the back entrance to the left. There are so many historic sites to visit within walking distance such as the tomb of the unknown revolutionary war soldier behind the Presbyterian Meeting house, and the first Catholic Church in the Virginia colony, basilica St. Mary’s, and countless other historic places.

    A very clean and spacious room with fluffy pillows and comfortable bed. Location was a short walking distance from dozens of local shops and restaurants. And near parks and shaded walking trails along the Potomac River. Very helpful, friendly staff who excelled at customer service.

    Overall nice. However the rooms have only limited coverage area rugs resulting in loud stomping noises every time someone on the floor above me walked around the room. It kept me awake all night. Literally.

    I call the front desk in the morning for request some items brought up to my room around 8am. They told me to come get it myself because he was the only one there and abruptly hanged up the phone. That is a fair ask, but the communication was very poor, plus 8am and only one person working?

    I immediately called the hotel and spoke to an employee named Nigel who, after going over the charges, admitted I was overcharged. He promised to credit my account and send me an email confirming the correction. Three days later I still had not received the email. I called and spoke to Nigel again. This time he sent the confirming email while I was still on the phone with him, but after 12 days my account still has not been credited the overcharge. The overcharge and false promise is very disappointing. It’s a disheartening ending to an otherwise enjoyable stay.

    This hotel was very well located, in view of the river and easily walkable to the waterfront and all the quaint streets, shops and restaurants of Old Town. The Hummingbird restaurant was awesome - we had both breakfast and dinner there - and had lots of outdoor seating including some with water views. All the hotel staff were lovely. We'd go back in an instant!

    Not a great property. The room itself was fine—large with a comfortable bed. The plumbing in the bathroom leaked. The common areas were a bit degraded. Lots of chipped paint, and hall carpets did not seem too clean. Not enough staff at front desk or in restaurant.

    Did not like no carpeting in rooms. Showerhead dripped for two hours after use which made it hard to sleep. Did not like $30/night amenity fee, although it did include $15/night of snacks at their location. I wish it had a complimentary breakfast as their restaurant is very expensive, so we walked to nearby breakfast place called Jack's which was great.

    Coffee and tea service in the room was nice. The river view was beautiful, even in the rain. Loved how they provided a refilable filtered water station and 2 glass bottles for our use in the room. Much better than water bottle waste. The linens and pillows were comfortable, but the mattress was too firm for my liking and I woke with hip pain during the nigjt. Staff were very friendly.

    Paid a deposit for this stay via hotels.com, i showed the front desk clerk my receipt, i showed management my receipt, all from hotels.com and they never ever credited my account. The bank will do it no worries, last stay there. This place has crated in quality over the last few years. I've held my tongue about the mice in the restaurant for a while, so now you know.

    My only issue with my stay was with the size of the parking accomodations. Parking our 4 door sedan led to some tight fits and needing to squeeze carefully out of the car as a small person. Parking attendants did their best to assist but garage limitations made parking a little bit stressful. Not enough to deter me from returning to that was overwhelmingly a great stay but good to note.
