Hotel is very convenient to NIH, and the staff is great. But, they've let the condition of the property fall below what I'd consider adequate. The bathroom had a few plumbing issues, the room door was difficult to open, and the mattresses are at the end of their lives.

Expedia posted deceptive pictures of this property! My wife found bedbugs in her bed & many other human hairs on mattress cover. We did not stay but were still charged for 1 night We found another hotel in the area that was wonderful. This wasted so much time and disappointment to our 2 day vacation in Bethesda. We were vacationing from Canada to a place we had previously lived 25 years ago.

This was the single most disgusting hotel I have ever stayed in my entire life. Only stay here if you have absolutely NO extra money to stay elsewhere. The 2 & 3rd floors house what appear to be welfare families. On many occasions, their little children roam the lobby/outside areas alone while their parents are getting high. Absolutely disgusting filthy property! DON’T STAY HERE!!

Stayed 5 days. Room only cleaned on first day. Offers breakfast. Unlike most places there is a paper bag with some items. It is deceptive to say that they offer breakfast. No place that says breakfast has this, There is usually coffee and something to pick up. Parking is terrible needs backing into. Anyone allowed to park in handicap spots encouraged by management. One of the persons on desk made you stand without acknowledging my presence waiting in the line .Overheard persons in lobby who were given a room flooded and having roaches. Will never ever recommend this facility to anyone

Average hotel and below par check in experience
Front desk person was not available for about 15 mins. A lady waiting in front of us had to call the office at least twice before someone answered. Front desk guy was on his phone while walking slowly back to counter/chair and get in front of computer.

When I arrived, I waited far too long to check in because no one was at the front desk. My shower clearly hadn't been cleaned - there was hair on the shower walls. There were mold spots on the wall in the bathroom. The internet was spotty.
