Отель для посещения Вашингтона
Pros:

Отель вполне удобный и чистый. От метро 10 мин. Отличные завтраки и платная подземная парковка.

Cons:

Бассейн маловат. При парковке проверяйте чтобы машину зарегистрировали, у меня на стекле было предупреждение об эвакуации)))
Пришлось вызывать дядю менеджера

Nice location but needs some dog friendly additions
Pros:

The hotel is within walking distance from many excellent restaurants. The staff was polite, and the facility was clean. Parking is on sight, and you can park early and leave late.

Cons:

While the hotel was pet friendly, it did not have an area available for dogs to use the restroom. We had to walk off site to find grass at a local Dominos. The staff was not able to provide directions other than to avoid areas marked to keep pets out, which was everywhere. There is a dog park, but you have to drive to go there.

Great option in Ballston
Pros:

This is my go-to hotel whenever I have friends staying in Arlington. Recently I had to check in late at night without a reservation, and Marie was a friendly presence who guided me through the booking process and made sure everything was good to go! Thanks to her I was able to enjoy a great night of stay- definitely will be staying here in the future again.

Highly personalised and special experience!
Pros:

Our stay at the Residence Inn Arlington Ballston was truly exceptional. We especially want to recognize Marie, who went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed, cared for, and genuinely special. Her personalised attention and thoughtful service makes such a difference and turned a great stay into an even a more memorable one.
It’s rare to find service that feels this personal and sincere rather than simply “run of the mill.” Marie made us feel like valued guests, and that kind of special treatment is something we won’t forget.
We highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for more than just a place to stay. If you appreciate warm, personalized service and people who truly go the extra mile, this is the place to choose. Thank you, Marie, for making our stay so special!

Good but some issues
Pros:

There were things that bothered me. I asked for an early check-in and was told that a room was becoming available in 15 minutes. It turned into hours of me repeatedly returning to the front desk to check on the time. The breakfast ends at 9:00am week days and 9:30am weekends and that’s just way too early. The coffee also isn’t available all day. Yes, it’s in your room for you to make, but there was also a cold brew station at breakfast that was promptly removed at 9:00am. Why not leave it with the hot coffee that stays out until it’s gone? The $40/day parking also seemed excessive. Lastly, the work spaces are great but the loud music throughout the lobby rendered them useless.

Awesome location.
Pros:

I loved that I could park my car and didn't need to move it until we checked out. The location is surrounded by so many places to eat. It's also convenient to public transportation. My family and agreed that we will definitely be revisiting the location.

Cons:

The only negative experience I can say that I had; was that the pool water was too cold. However, that could be my opinion.

Phenomenal customer service!!!
Pros:

Marie at the front desk defined what customer service is supposed to be, but so rarely is. Friendly, kind, helpful. Because of Marie, we decided to stay two additional nights at this hotel instead of changing to another hotel. Thank you!

The best experience with Ruby
Pros:

After a long night and an exhausting flight, arriving at this hotel completely turned my mood around. The staff went above and beyond to make me feel welcome, especially Ruby — she and the team truly made this stay memorable with their warmth and attentiveness. On top of the excellent service, the breakfast was great, the rooms were comfortable, and the location made everything easy to access. Truly thankful for the experience. Highly recommend!
