We had a very comfortable stay here for 2 nights while we were visiting universities in the DC area. Convenient location to Univ. of Maryland and to the highways. Facilities seemed new, parking was plentiful with the garage below the hotel, breakfast was fine. The coffee at breakfast was good, nice and strong! The gym had several good machines, though only one treadmill. Guest laundry had modern machines -- I didn't use them, but saw them while going to gym. We had a studio suite which we found too small for our family of 4. Though the bathroom, and especially the shower, was spacious, we could have done without the kitchen for more space. So, not really a "suite" as we usually book, with a couch, just a smaller hotel room with a kitchen and armchair. Nice to have a table for 4, but it ended up as a storage space because there was very little floor space available. Check in was smooth, though not particularly welcoming -- no smile, monotone. The woman at the desk when we checked out, however, was much friendlier and genuine. Overall, we were happy, and would stay at this hotel brand again, but wouldn't use this kind of room again.
