"This hotel is a tiny gem in Arlington. The outside does not look like much, but the rooms are very nice and the staff is accommodable.
For the price and a tiny 1-2 day stay, absolutely pick this place.
I will say that the phone service is dependent on the owners to pick up, but they will be awake at 6am if you pester them enough :| . "

"Clean and quiet place to stay, for the price it’s ideal. Check in was quick but the service was straight to the point, no smile or friendly welcome, but not a big deal for the price. You will have to put a $100 deposit so be sure to leave your room in mint condition upon leaving. "

"I rented the hotel for 16 days. I had a double queen room with a microwave and a fridge. The room was clean and the bathroom was clean. I appreciated that it had a bathtub. During the first week, I was unable to enter the parking lot due to eight police cars blocking everything because they were looking for someone. I ended up canceling the second half of my stay because I had the kids and it didn’t feel the safest. "

"The Hotel was good. Just the surrounding area was not so good, people were in the parking lot hanging out. Lots of people just sitting outside of the parking area. I didn’t feel very safe here. The front desk staff was great. I paid online for breakfast and they didn’t have it anymore. "

"The hotel accommodations were awful. Holes in the wall, severe damage to the floors, awful bath tub. Drugs and homeless made the stay very uncomfortable. Definitely will not recommend that hotel to anyone. Will never stay there again."

"The hotel was excellent, the only thing that was not perfect was the pool being under construction, but this was known before I made my reservation. When in the Riverside area, I will likely stay here again."

"The Food Lab is within walking distance from this hotel and it is a great option for the whole family, we were able to have something different every night. Unfortunately, we stayed before the hotel garage and pool were complete, but we were able to find street parking most of the time for free. The rooms were great and it will be a nice place to stay when they complete everything."

"Property seems to have been recently renovated. Very clean and well equipped if you have a long stay. Full size fridge, stovetop, microwave and dishwasher. Plus all the kitchen necessities, i.e. pots, pans, dishes, utensils, etc. I travel for work and it’s conveniently located to the airport. I’ve stayed here twice and will again. "
"Really enjoyed this property and will be back. It was clean, great parking, tucked off on its own, yet surrounded by walkable eateries and other shopping. The staff was kind which is a rare type in customer service these days. The food was standard."
"We enjoyed our stay overall. The bed was large and comfortable. Room was clean and spacious. Ample parking. Front desk people were friendly but not informed about the EV charging. Only one usb b (no c) port in the room. Pool was clean and warm and located at the adjacent hotel but not too far to walk over. We ordered tacos but they’re small and ok. Breakfast was decent. Nothing within walking distance so it’s a place to relax. We didn’t use the spa so not different from the Aryes hotel I think. "
"The staff at the reception desk was friendly, professional and efficient. The hotel was very clean and well maintained.
I will need a receipt for the stay emailed to me please."
