    On a positive note, I received excellent service from all of the staff at the hotel who really went out of their way to help me. Also housekeeping did a very good job cleaning the rooms. It is certainly a great location, but it is a shame to see such a beautiful building being poorly cared for (the hallways weren’t bad but the elevators were in poor condition). It is likely I would only return to the hotel as a last resort.

    Windows in this hotel are very old and not sound proof. Had to put a towel on the sill to dampen the noise. Still, heard loud drunk party going folks until 4AM. Then, reserved the hotel cab for 1pm only to find out there was nothing arranged when we showed up at 12:50. They”sold us on a nice Lexus” for travel to BWI, then switched us to an old, dirty Camry. The taxi driver was nice and respectful but we had the rug pulled out from under us at the Alexandrian Hotel. Sorry, but won’t be back.

    The location is great, the overall architectural design of the property is great, thanks to the central open air courtyard which affords nice windows and natural light. The staff is very hospitable and friendly. Our room had a VERY noisy heating system that periodically came on throughout the night and that made it hard to go to sleep. Plus there wasn’t a blanket for the bed and so I had to sleep in layers: tights, a camisole and a thermal underwear top plus heavy cotton booties. I couldn’t get warm enough, unless I was up against my husband, but he moves in his sleep so I couldn’t stay in that position for long.

    The parking was easy and secure and the breakfast was excellent. However, there were issues with the room: the heating system failed and it was almost one hour before a technician showed up to get it running. He was great and said he was on dinner break when the call came in. Also, the phone was not working because it was not plugged in directly. Also, the coffee maker did not work. Finally, we were told that we would get a parking discount but that did not happen. The bellmen were fantastic and very helpful as were the folks on the desk. Also, high grades for the cocktail hour. The bourbon drink was fantastic.

    The location was amazing. Wonderful old town neighborhood. The restaurant was also great and the room was cool with funky wallpaper and nice toiletries. I’ve already addressed this with the staff but I was in a too floor room all the way at the end of the hall. The room had only one small, high window and the window shade could only be reached by having to climb onto a precarious roller chair, then a glass-topped table. It was frankly unsafe. But it was either do that or deal with a room so bright you could read at night with no lights on. Also — the mattress was obviously old and worn out. It was completely saggy, but when I tried to move Niki to the middle to find firmer ground, I could feel a seam as though it was two mattresses pushed together. Just uncomfortable. Between that, the window and the jet lag, I barely slept for two nights.

    I booked this last minute trying to find something to do with our kids for NYE. My husband saw that Old Town Alexandria had a kid friendly event and this hotel was right in the center of it. We got there earlier than our check-in time and thankfully our room was ready, so we got settled in pretty quickly. We took the trolley back and forth from the hotel and did a lot of walking too. The location was very convenient. We had breakfast at the restaurant connected to the hotel. Check out was super easy. A gentleman asked us how our stay was and offered our kids some little prizes (there was a bucket of sunglasses, necklaces, keychains, etc.). Everyone was super friendly. We would definitely come back again. My only complaint was that one elevator was broken, so there were only 2 working elevators.

If the hotel does not want to work with travel site websites, they should take their hotel off of them. It took 15 minutes to check in the first day and a good 1/2 hour the second day.

    Although first impressions of tattered entry rugs, the hotel was welcoming. The staff were friendly and accmmodating, The evening started with a complimentary drink (either sangria or an old fashioned). Being directly on King street , it allowed for easy walking to the waterfront, restaurants and pubs. The free King street trolley was an added bonus. Our room was clean and comfortable

    A gang of thugs were blasting music until 2AM outside the hotel. The clerk at the front desk could not care less. We had to call the police. Some clown started slamming his door at 5AM. Then at 8AM a street performer began playing (very badly) the saxophone. This is probably not the norm, but it was our experience.
