Hotel is in the southside of Alexandria, but if you have a car, it's very convenient to stay here and drive to Washington DC. It takes about 20 min to be in DC. We stayed here for a couple of nights while visiting DC and Old Town Alexandria. Hotel is clean and staff very friendly. They have good hot/cold options for breakfast (eggs, sausage, potatoes, waffles) and lots of space for the crowd having breakfast in the mornings. Room was enough for what we needed, with a little sink, refrigerator and microwave available. Although there doesn't seem to have quick access to public transportation and not walkable around, I would stay here again if I have my own vehicle
