Hotel was clean and staff were friendly. Breakfast was good and included oatmeal, eggs, sausage gravy, biscuits, potatoes, coffee, juice, cereal, pastries, and yogurt. Plenty of parking in an area where I felt safe.

I really like this hotel!
I have stayed here many times over the last six years, as both my children attended the George Mason University. Every time I stay here, the room is clean, the staff is always extremely friendly and helpful, and I enjoy the continental breakfast. It's quiet, close to grocery stores, and about a ten to fifteen minute drive from campus on busy days. It's also close to Manassas (we have family there). I highly recommend staying here!
