Fantastic Location for DC
Guests loved being just a quick walk from the historic Arlington Cemetery, with countless other memorials and national landmarks just minutes away. Guests also enjoyed having a bike rental station located close by, with a shuttle service available to the metro station morning and night.
positive:
Spacious Suites Great for Longer Stays
The spacious, apartment-style suites are perfect for those requiring longer DC stays. Business travelers enjoyed having access to a work desk area, with enough space to comfortably sit down to work on a lap top. The well equipped kitchen also allows for self-catering.
positive:
A Helpful Staff Stands Out
Guests repeatedly praised the excellent Virginian Suites hotel staff, who were described as warm and friendly, and always extremely helpful in every situation. This completed the package for many, who raved about the clean and well-presented facilities. Many said they would return.

Nowhere to Eat In-House
While a bed and breakfast option is available for an additional cost, some guests grumbled that brekky wasn't already included for the price of this hotel. Others mentioned that it would have been nice to have some sort of dining option available within the hotel.
negative:
Long-ish Walk to Metro
Some guests found the metro station a little far to be able to walk to quickly. While a shuttle service is available, these guests would have preferred not to rely on a transport option. Still, most guests found the hotel overall to be wonderfully located for DC.
negative:
In Need of a Makeover
The hotel appeared to be old to some guests, who felt the whole place could use a good breath of fresh air. Descriptions included tired, and torn furnishings, and peeling paint on the walls. Some guests also complained about a bad smell lingering in the corridors.
