Quality Inn Mount Vernon

If I could give it 0 stars, I would. I was booked to stay here about 2 weeks ago and upon arriving I noticed the area was a little sketchy. I still gave it a shot and I quickly regretted it. My room had a horrible odor and the carpets were extremely dirty which I’m sure perpetuated the smell. The tub had rust and the entire room was very outdated. I sprayed the room in and aired it out in hopes of getting the smell out, but that did not work. I checked it very late and at that point, I wanted some rest but the beds were absolutely horrific. In addition to it being uncomfortable they also had a horrible odor and questionable stains which made me and my guests check out immediately. When I expressed my concerns to the front desk they offered a second room which was equally horrible and unsanitary! The front desk receptionist was very rude to me and truly ignored my concerns and began talking about all the awards they have received which was very frustrating because it was well past 2 am when I had to check out. He had a very hostile tone which made me uneasy and when my fiancé walked in, he immediately changed it. On top of that he was also lying about their policy and the steps I have to go through in order to her a refund. It has now been 2 weeks since and while I was promised a refund, I never received it. I traveled 30 minutes away and stayed at the holiday Inn quantico that was immaculate. Please, whatever you do– do not subject yourself to that hotel… it was the worst experience I have ever had and I will not be returning there.

This place was a decent 3 star.
It wasn’t too great, but not horrible.
The bed has too many lumps and lots of small pillows, making the sleep a little bit uncomfortable.
The breakfast is decent, containing the essentials of waffles, eggs, and fresh fruit.
The room has all the necessities, I would definitely recommend this hotel, for a quick stay.
You get what you pay for, a decent place to spend the night.

Looks more like an old motel. Showing its age. Not that clean, with cobwebs in the corners of the room, stains on the carpet. The staff was friendly. Limited parking. Breakfast area was a converted guest room and could barely accommodate all the guests. $ 100 a night, which is what we paid, was a bit much for the level of quality. It seemed like it had been about 20 years since it had been updated. I wouldn’t recommend it.

Very convenient hotel, clean rooms and all appropriate amenities. Was a pit stop on a road tour for me, had no complaints whatsoever. If you are traveling through the area, I think this is the best quality/​price deal you will find around. Breakfast was not too shabby either. Would definitely recommend.

We booked this hotel through Expedia’s express deals. Let me just say that when we arrived, I did not like the surroundings so I was a little wary. But that goes to show to never judge a book by its cover. The check in was very quick and the lady was very nice, once we got to the room it was very comfortable and clean, I was a lot better than I expected. The complimentary breakfast was a big plus. It was a great hotel for the price we paid.

Checked in and was told that they only had smoking rooms available thought nothing of it I stay in hotels often so I was to worries seeing that more often then not smoking rooms usually don’t smell to bad BUT just opening the door an the stench of stale cigarettes was incredible I travel with fabreeze so after unloading about half the can in the room it was staring to not feel so gross until I checked my beds only to find MULTPLE burn hole all over one beds comforter an weird stains on the other I just decided to suck it up an stay my night but won’t be staying here again.

Ok, I booked this hotel for two reasons:
1. Free WiFi
2. Pool
Now, I was happy with the pool. Played in it for hours. The WiFi, on the other hand, was annoying the crap out of me. I used my data plan for most of the nights spent there.
The hotel was about 30 minutes from the national monuments and 15 minutes from my brother’s fort. Luckily, I booked with Expedia, so I paid a lot less for the going rate. Otherwise, I would’ve raised more hell for having spotty internet.

The boy and I were going to a friend’s wedding which came up a lot sooner than we remembered, and so found ourselves sitting in a car outside a Starbucks somewhere in Virginia with a laptop searching frantically through the AAA website for a cheap hotel near Fort Washington, MD. After a few frustrating attempts at contacting other places, we finally managed to get a hold of someone at this hotel. She was friendly and helpful, and booked us rooms for $ 79. We rolled in about an hour later and got settled in. The rooms are not insulated terribly well, and being on the first floor we did hear quite a bit of foot traffic that night. Also, there is a fire station nearby, so be warned if you are sensitive to sirens. The location was great in terms of being close to Mt. Vernon and Old Town Alexandria, and we only wish we’d had more time to sightsee. It is a good choice though if you’re on a budget and don’t mind being a little outside the city proper.

All hotels in the DC area was booked so we had to trave the 20 minutes to Alexandria to a hotel, But it paid off, the price was right and the place was very clean and neat and put together, very nice staff and clean rooms.
It was worth the trip.

We needed only a place to spend the night, near to Mount Vernon — and this place filled the bill for a very reasonable rate.
We found the room (double queen) to be very spacious, and the bathroom area was also quite large, clean, and well lit.
The pool was in use while we were there, and even when there was only one older person relaxing poolside, there was a young lifeguard there. He looked pretty bored, but I can’t remember the last hotel/​motel I visited that even had a lifeguard.
The neighborhood does look a little sketchy, but there are security cameras all over the campus and they are monitored. We never felt the least bit unsafe.
Overall, I liked our room and the hotel. I would certainly stay there again.

Well, I was looking for the cheapest place the seemed decent and wasn’t far from D.C. This is what I came up with. After arriving and checking everything out, I can see why this seemed like a deal.
First, the good things:
The staff was friendly and helpful.
It was cheap compared to places any closer to D.C.
It was not a far ride from D.C.
It had food, convenience, and gas stations near by.
It was a good sized room. I had the one bed suite. It had a couch, coffee table, desk, tv, bed, microwave, and a little refrigerator.
They do provide a continental breakfast, I didn’t check it out however.
They have an outdoor pool and hot tub, but it was not opened yet when I was there.
Now, for the bad things:
The neighborhood there seemed pretty shady. The hotel did have a security guard watching the parking lot at night though. She was friendly too.
The doors to the rooms or outside doors. There is no internal corridor at this hotel… it’s kind of like a motel.
From inside my room, I could see daylight around the door to my room. Doesn’t seem safe or clean. Someone could probably easily kick your door down. And, bugs can easily crawl right through there.
They provided plastic cups by the sink. They were in wrappers. But, they were all opened… opened enough were the whole cup can be removed. So, that made me question the cleanliness of them.
That’s all I can think of.
Overall, it really wasn’t a bad stay to me. I can put up with a lot to save some money. I’d probably be willing to shell out another $ 30 a night to get a place that is a bit nicer (and closer) to D.C. if I could find that next time. But, if not, I wouldn’t be against staying here again. I was only there to sleep anyway.
