Pros:

The service and the breakfast that I bought was excellent. I thought the interior design and the room was very well done and I felt very comfortable.

Convenient, accommodating, excellent restaurant and service.
Pros:

Dinner at Kiln was a highlight. The food was comparable to any fine restaurant in Alexandria—and beyond. Staff were universally friendly and helpful. We would certainly return.

Cons:

Beds were a little too soft, but that is a personal preference. Not crazy about the online check-in process, but understand it might be a timesaver. We did not arrive or leave at a busy time so it made no difference. We had lived in Old Town for 20 years, so recognize that the location is great. Was disconcerted by the high cost of parking. $45 PLUS tips for bringing up and for parking the car was excessive.

We got lucky in picking the Heron for a stay lasting several weeks - location, good staff, and food.
Pros:

We stayed for nearly a month as we had suffered a small house fire and needed a place nearby. The staff were very friendly, helpful, and competent. The room was quiet and everything worked. The food in the hotel bar and restaurant was excellent (with plenty of dining options nearby if you want to get out of the hotel). It's a pet friendly hotel and they treated our small dog really well.

Cons:

The wait time for the valet was often very long (20 minutes or more at times) because it appears they were understaffed (and parked the cars several blocks away). However, it's easy to get a ride or use the (free) public buses nearby as well as the DC metro system.

Good location, good room but no coffee in room.
Pros:

|Location is great, room absolutely fine at price no issues here

Cons:

No coffee facilities in room, No hotel information in room. Running down to the reception in morning and trying to handle elevator/cards and hands full of warm coffee in morning is an ordeal I would rather not have gone through.
