Comfort Inn University Center

8/10 Good

"This hotel is old but very clean. Nothing fancy but you get a free hot breakfast and a nice pool for a reasonable price. Excellent location and a great Thai restaurant attached."

Courtyard Fairfax Fair Oaks

10/10 Excellent

"Good place to stay"

Sonesta ES Suites Fairfax Fair Lakes

10/10 Excellent

"It turned out to be a great value for me. However, and thinking about it, I realized that the broken third floor elevator probably figured into the good rate for this particular room. Nevertheless, it was a very nice place with a lot of good amenities for me because I travel with food that I need to heat up and think of that nature. The staff was a little slow and getting to people at the front desk I noticed. There was a bit of a wait for the most part this morning when I went to check out the guy was on the phone got off the phone and then that rang again and he got back on the phone! So I’m standing there waiting to check out."

Residence Inn By Marriott Fairfax Merrifield

10/10 Excellent

"Nice place. I did not like having to pay $15 a night to park."

Extended Stay America Suites Washington DC Falls Church

10/10 Excellent

"Remodel the rooms."
