Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Washington, DC/Downtown in Washington, DC

We were in town for a concert at Capital One Arena. This hotel was the perfect location for us, within a short walk to the concert. Valet parking for an additional charge at hotel. (Manuel in valet was very helpful and kind.) Hotel was clean. King suite was nice with sofa bed. Breakfast available in lobby.

I came to town for a couple of days to work an event near the convention center. Due to a large event I was required to be a bit further away than I wanted. But, I was surprised at the quality and customer service at the Fairfield Inn! It was fantastic. The place must be newly remodeled. Everything was in great condition. The rooms were nice, the bed was comfortable, the wifi was excellent and the location was awesome! Chinatown offers a lot to do and easy access to everything!

Stayed 2 nights. Was surprised to find out it’s located in Chinatown. Two blocks from subway. Typical Marriott breakfast. Nice rooms and amenities. Very friendly helpful staff. Allowed us to leave our bags locked in storage because we arrived before we could check in and checked out before we needed to leave for the airport. Neighborhood sometimes sketchy at night. Safe inside. Good location closed to downtown.

5 stars for the staff - everyone from the front desk ladies to the housekeeping staff, and from the breakfast attendants to the porters, were fantastic ... absolutely fantastic. 5 stars for location - seriously, this place is within walking distance to/from anything and everything. Couldn’t really hear any street noise from our third floor room, which was awesome. 4 stars for the fitness center - excellent array of machines and free weights, as well as a water cooler, towels and wipes. Had the place to myself at 8am on Sunday morning. Could do with some hand sanitizer. 3 stars for our room - clean, but VERY small and somewhat outdated. It was a corner unit so I’m not sure if other rooms are bigger. Housekeeping did a fabulous job, though the air-con could have been a bit better (we had it set at 60o on the heatwave weekend we were in town, but I don’t think our room ever got below about 70o). Hallways are quite small, so you hear your neighbors coming and going - we were staying right next to a family who loved to slam their room door at all hours of the day and night. 3 stars for breakfast - typical free hotel breakfast with hot and cold options. Note that the breakfast area gets VERY busy - to the point there were lines down the hallway to get food and no tables available for us to sit at. Get there early! (they don’t run out of food, it’s just a bit of a crowded place to be...)

Overall this hotel was great! No complaints. Clean rooms, non-smoking, friendly staff, easy check-in/out, good breakfast. Very close walk to parking garage, the metro & Cap-1 arena for show we attended. We would stay here again.
