I like everything about this hotel! First and foremost it is nicely furnished and clean. The Starbucks in the lobby has breakfast sandwiches, bagels, and other food items. Very convenient. The Wednesday special in the restaurant is an excellent burger and a pint for $7! I will say that my co-worker discovered a minor issue upon entering his room, but... More

Property itself is fine. Location is great, with lots of restaurants in walking distance. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Fitness area is a bit dirty, but adequate. Only issue was with staff and amenities of my reservation. Used a prepaid rate that included club access and free internet. I was not given either of these, and had to actually show... More

Recent reviews here are pretty accurate. The hotel must have undergone a big renovation recently because it looks nearly new. The rooms have a pleasant, contemporary decor with decent lighting, including around the bath mirror; plenty of towels are provided; the bedding really is especially comfortable. The rooms are just bit small. The armchair and reading lamp were crammed into... More

I usually stay at a nearby Hilton. The Westin was two-thirds the price, and provided excellent accommodation and service. Close to the metro, shopping and a long list of restaurants. My new place to stay in the DC area. More

This Westin was a good experience for us. The bed linens were nice and the bed comfortable. The bathroom was nice as well and we especially liked the lighting in the bathroom.

First off, we used this hotel as a point to see D.C and Manassas. I can't tell you very much about the surrounding area. There's no free parking. I'd like to give it an "Average" rating but I realize that it may be unrealistic to expect free parking. There are ample metered spots on the street. [2 hour parking, 8am... More
