"We were there 3 nights . Liked that it was in a great location . Had a bar and restaurant but did not use it .
I would recommend it to friends and family especially if you are going to visit old town Alexandria . You xan just oak your car at hotel and take the free king st trolley to explore old town
I think the hotel rooms could use a little uograde . Also for the price you pay parking should be included . Had to pay extra for that and also had to pay for Wi-Fi unless you were a Hilton member"
"Check in was easy, front desk staff very pleasant and the room (small suite) was spacious and I really liked the walk in shower. Vouchers were provided towards the dining room - and the breakfast buffet was a good variety of hot and cold items. Severs/staff in the restaurant were also pleasant. One area that needs improvement is the airport shuttle. The hotel should tell guests flying into Reagan exactly where to meet the driver (what door). I had to call the hotel for this information - when the driver arrived he drove right past the designated stop - I had to make another call to the hotel to tell the front desk this - only to be told they would call the driver - when the hotel called me back I was told the driver was waiting several doors down at another door. The shuttle driver was pleasant and helpful. The hotel is nicely located and all in all I had a good stay. A pool would be a major PLUS!"
"The room was ok. The hotel was under renovation, with reception operating in front of a curtain, the pool was not inviting, the furniture im the breakfast area has split seats, and the seats were too low fir the tables. Once the workers started it became very noisy. The parking garage was poorly marked, with super tight spaces"
Residence Inn Alexandria Old Town/Duke Street by Marriott
10/10 Excellent
"Staff was courteous and professional. My Uber driver dropped me off at the other Residence property. The desk staff contacted the property that held my reservation and the reservation property sent their courtesy shuttle to retrieve me. I thought that was exceptional!
The breakfast was excellent. Well presented. The food stations were nicely spaced and well maintained by staff. This is especially important as I typically appear in the last hour when things are winding down and sometimes a bit ragged at other hotels. Not here. The room was spectacular. Though old school and traditional everything was impeccable.
I only had one night but this property would definitely be a location and facility to serve a multi-night stay over. Bravo"
