Harborside Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The Staff were friendly, courteous, professional and helpful. The hotel was in close proximity to shopping and eateries. The bed/mattress was ideal for me which made for peaceful sleep."

City Express by Marriott Washington, DC Northeast

4/10 Poor

"The breakfast was very small had very little options. Many of the front desk staff were very rude and mean and had no idea what they were doing, there were ants in the room. It was a pretty bad section of town. Overall I was very disappointed especially for the price and the fact that it was a Marriott. Up until now I had always had a very good experience with Marriott this was definitely a disappointment."
