Pros: Very convenient location. Check in was very easy. The fitness facility was good.
Cons: I spent 2 nights in the Morgantown Hampton. We had free internet, complimentary water at check in but not at the Hilton. If there would have been a Hampton in an as convenient location I would have stayed there.

Pros: Room was lovely and comfortable.
Cons: Even Motel 6 has free wifi. I get charging for parking, tho $35 seemed exorbitant. But wifi? That should be standard, with maybe a paid option for a faster upgrade.

Pros: The pillow and bed were extremely comfortable.
Cons: The check in agent said "a charge of 34 dollars will be charged for parking" the checkout agent said no additional charges, implying other than those assessed yesterday. And the garage agent charged me independently. During a previous stay my garage charge had been bundled in with the room. Miscommunication like that comes off as very unprofessional, although it affected me only in a minor capacity.

Pros: The best meals we had while in Alexandria were actually from room service. Everything was great, room was very clean and spacious. We didn't want to leave the room most days. Absolutely spectacular from top to bottom.
Cons: Parking was a bit expensive. Also, no free wifi but the concierge offered me a complimentary pass when I asked about it.

Pros: The room and facility were clean, tidy, well equipped. The bathroom was very nice and the Peter-Thomas Roth toiletries were a bonus.
Cons: During check-in, I was told there were no king bed rooms available. My reservation was for a king. When I asked what the point of a reservation was, a few seconds later, a king became available.
The price of parking was high. I live relatively close to the hotel (Reston) and work in DC; the parking elsewhere is typically cheaper, maybe even half the price.

Pros: Excellent, quiet hotel. Really great location. Right next to the Metro and the room seemed completely sound proof.
Cons: Parking was $34 for the night, not included in the rate. We had a room with a sofa bed and needed to use the sofa bed and the linens didn't seem clean (there were crumbs in the couch). There was a night light on the bathroom mirror that couldn't be shut off.

Pros: Hilton Alexandria Old Town is a great place to stay in the Washington area. Alexandria Old Town is a lovely place to stroll around, and the Hilton is right across the street from King Street Metro station which will get you to the Mall area, Smithsonian, or downtown meetings in just a few minutes. I have stayed here 3 or 4 times on business and pleasure. Given the choice I have stayed here even when my meetings were downtown just because I love the area and can get downtown quickly anyway.

Pros: Spotless and spacious room, comfortable beds, excellent food and service in the restaurant, friendly staff. Located in "Old Town" Alexandria, this hotel is very convenient for boutique shopping and restaurants.
Cons: The hotel was advertised as pet friendly on booking.com. It actually is not a pet-friendly hotel. Because we'd booked with a pet in good faith, the hotel honored the reservation. The only thing we didn't care for during our stay is the modern, somewhat institutional decor of the lobby and restaurant.

Pros: The location was terrific. Hotel is nice and staff was very pleasant and accommodating.
Cons: I did not book directly with Hilton, even though I am a member of Hilton Honors program. I found a better deal on the internet.
My itinerary stated clearly that parking was $30 per day. When I arrived it was $34, per the front desk. For the dollars I spent with them, and being in Hilton's program, I believe they could have honored the $30.
