Great hotel... Just don't expect comfort it you book a suite for the sofa bed
Pros:

We liked the location amd the staff was very friendly. The rooms were clean

Cons:

We booked a suite to fit our family. We pulled the fold out sofa out and the mattress was cracked. Was only 1.5 inches thick and was covered uncomfortable. You felt the supports all over. Even my little grandson was too heavy to be able to get comfortable on it. We requested a mattress pad and they said the didn't have anything like that so there was nothing they could do. We ended up having to get another room ( which defeated us paying the extra money for a suite). They charged us full price even though we got the other room at 11:50pm. We were going to use booking.com to book the other room and they told us not too because it would cost more. We were so tired we just paid their price then afterwards looked at booking.com and saw we could have saved over 30% had we booked with them.

Pros:

The complementary breakfast offered a variety of choices. This hotel was located 20 minutes from a wedding we attended. It also was about 25 miles from DC which we visited. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Cons:

The only negative comment is that the pool was closed during our stay.
