Been here numerous times
Pros:

Clean.

Cons:

Entrance and exit from property is quite tricky, first of all there should be a sign from Richmond Hgwy for the hotel entrance, if you miss this you will need to go into Alexandria and make a u-turn or take a 3 mile turn around at National Harbor.!

Zero response when contacted via the hotel - ask a question
Cons:

Prior to our stay we sent a message with a question, asking for a response before our arrival day. We never received any communication regarding our request/question, which was very disappointing. .

Not good
Cons:

I did not like that they ruined my Mother's Day. My whole family that lived in the area gathered for a church service, and had my 98-year-old grandmother. The hotel called me and said that I had not checked out. I told them that I was scheduled to check out on Monday, the next day, and they said no on Sunday and that I had to come back and check out. I had to leave my family celebration and missed my grandmother being honored. On my phone, it said I was confirmed until the next day. I had to show them that I was heartbroken and that I missed something that I cherished, and I am going to get in touch with the corporate office of Hilton Hotels. This was not good, and they also had people enter my room when I told them no one was to enter. This was such a disappointment. The only thing they could say was I am sorry for that unacceptable. Plus, I am a silver member of Hilton. Plus, the breakfast was horrible and having the staff stand over you and see how much food you take was not good. I had two rooms, so I took food back to my elderly family who could not walk. I would have had a good experience if it were not for these mishaps,

Pros:

very nice hotel, but it lacks any restaurants within walking distance

Cons:

no places to eat within walking distance. There was a lot of traffic and we did not want to travel by car to find a place to eat. Also when booking this reservation there was no mention of $10 parking fee. Very disappointed, as this would have made a difference in booking.
