Holiday Inn Alexandria - Carlyle by IHG

I don’t usually take the time to write reviews, but when people go above and beyond, it deserves to be recognized. I was passing in the area near Holiday Inn on Eisenhower Avenue in Alexandria and urgently needed a reliable Wi-Fi connection for work. I stopped by the lobby to ask for assistance, even though I was not a registered guest at the time. Jadeep and Najowa at the front desk were absolutely amazing. (I apologize if I misspelled your names.) After I explained my situation, they didn’t give me a hard time or turn me away. I wasn't registered as l said, however Jadeep used his personal password to give me access to it. They showed true hospitality and kindness by helping me with access so I could take care of my work.

This was a good hotel to stay in that was near Old Town Alexandria. We stayed in a 2 queen-sized bedroom. The prices for a couple nights was affordable and fair. Was not too pleased that we could not get an early check-in due to how busy it was that month, but it was understandable. Also the parking was not free at the hotel. Parking was about $10/day through a paying app. Otherwise, the hotel room was comfortable and cozy.

LA made our evenings unforgettable! Not only were the drinks fantastic, but the atmosphere she created was just as enjoyable. She remembered our preferences, offered great recommendations, and made us feel like regulars even though it was our first visit.

This place requires a deposit by credit or debit card only for more than the room room costs. Room rate was 139 a night deposit was 150. I had to come out-of-pocket nearly $300 to stay here and it’s dated at that. Mr. Patel must only own this location because everywhere in the country is a $50 deposit never have I seen in a higher end hotel a deposit equal to the amount of the room that only occurs in very very low end hotels.
