Hotels Near Safeway in Bethesda

At a cursory glance, my King One Bedroom Suite seems spacious and well appointed. It doesn't take long, however, before one can see that this place is in dire need of some TLC, most notably when it comes to cleaning. One of the first things I noticed upon checking in to my room was a card pledging IHG's commitment to a high standard of cleanliness, signed off by Julia and the Cleaning Team. One quick look around the place and it is clear that IHG and its cleaning team have not upheld this commitment. I was disgusted to find a long black hair nestled comfortably between a tissue box and the bathroom mirror, streaks and grime all over the floors, picture frames, and tables, and questionable stains on the bed's headboard. I have had to give this place a good scrub myself just to be able to bring myself to sleep at night. Sleep was next to impossible, however, as one of the guests down the hall seemed intoxicated and was shouting with his door open for at least 30 minutes. I tried phoning reception to inform them of the rowdy client and their suggestion was literally ”Go talk to them and tell them if they don't stop shouting, we will have to intervene”. I couldn't take it anymore and personally stepped outside to ask the guest if he could keep his voice down, but before I could get to his door, his groggy neighbor was already in the process of giving him a piece of her mind. Ready to put the previous night behind me, I woke up this morning to prepare some coffee and start my day only to find more stains on the fridge and all over the coffee maker and carafe. I would have cleaned it myself, but of course there was no dishwashing liquid anywhere to be found in my room. It's only my second day here and I can only imagine what surprises are in store for me tonight at The Staybridge Suites McLean. As a paying guest, all I ask is for a clean place to sleep and some peace and quiet. Instead, it seems I have signed up to be a pro bono cleaner and nighttime security guard. Internet connectivity is extremely sporadic so forget about working from home! I understand that the pandemic has posed some setbacks and that a room clean can only be offered once every three nights, but at least make sure that the room is cleaned prior to the next guest’s check-in. I do not recommend anyone stay here if they expect a clean and quiet hotel. This place's only saving grace is its proximity to DC and the stellar customer service skills demonstrated by Jonathan, the night shift representative who really streamlined the check-in process.

I stayed in a shared room (females only), and this was perfect for me because I was only there for a couple nights and just needed a place to sleep since I was out all day long. The Generator checked all the boxes and I felt safe sharing my room. The red line is only minutes away and there are multiple buses that can take you wherever you need to be! Everyone was very helpful and kind.

I recently hosted a conference and board meeting at the Sheraton Pentagon City Hotel. I stayed twice- once in September to do a site visit and had a particularly friendly welcome from Gelila who helped me out multiple times and made me feel welcome and cared for. She really made my experience memorable. Working with Jada and Megan to book the event was really easy, friendly and efficient. When I came back to host my event I was really welcomed by the staff. Kendra always made sure I had what I needed to make sure my event ran smoothly and kept track of many different needs our group had. She was very responsive and helpful. Negasi, Rosario, Helen and Amir took care of us with our catering and were such authentic and caring people. They all made us feel like family. Negasi particularly noticed what we needed and made strides to change the plan to accommodate for our particular event. He is a wonderful person. Other front desk helpers, like Taylor, also really enhanced the experience. Everybody really actedl like a human being and I really appreciate it. I am so grateful each time I went down and saw Gelila at the desk because I felt like I could count on her generosity and friendly warmth! Thank you all for the care and consideration during our event! Next time will definitely book here.

I needed a reasonable place to stay in the area, and I saw that EVEN Hotel Rockville was located nicely and had a good price. Sometimes with a good price, hotels lack in some areas. However, this was not the case with EVEN Hotel Rockville. I was delighted to find that both the lobby and the room were clean and modern. I really liked the glass sliding door to the bathroom. The bed and sheets were comfortable and the AC kept the room as cool as we needed it. I would definitely recommend staying here if you're looking for a good hotel in the area.

During my 2 week stay at the Marriott Fairview Park I was treated most professionally by the staff. My initial room accommodations were not quite satisfactory, yet the front office hurried to quickly remedy any concerns I had and followed up afterwards. The lobby area was under construction and the site restaurant was temporarily relocated; given that the staff/reception never missed a beat in making you feel welcomed and comfortable. I just want to extend my gratitude and appreciation to the OPS Manager/Duane and his entire staff!! It's trying being away on business and it's wonderful to find a hotel that truly cares about their guests! Whenever I travel to the DC area I'll be staying at the Marriott Fairview Park, one of my homes away from home! I can't wait to see their new lobby!! Parking was complimentary. E.R.

I stayed at this brand new hotel at the University of Maryland and had a wonderful time. It is conveniently located to visit the university, but it is also very simple to go to DC using the Metro, which I did. The rooms are very comfortable and quiet. The WiFi is strong enough for video calls and work. The staff was very kind, including the cleaning staff.

Breakfast is OK, the hotel is not located in Washington, DC, no car is not convenient, the hotel has a parking lot.

This was a very good, reasonably priced and conveniently located hotel. Breakfast was very good, much better than expected. The customer service was excellent. Front desk was super helpful. The Front office manager, Peykan Gilanshah, was particularly good. We had smoke alarm malfunction in the middle of the night, and the front desk offered a 20% discount. However, since we'd booked thru a 3rd party they couldn't change the bill, and when we checked out the reception said the manager would handle it when he came in. To my utter surprise, Peykan called me the very next day, was extremely gracious, and said he would send a check, which arrived in 3 days. This was a minor thing, but the sort of follow up that is all too rare and very appreciated.

Totally nonresponsive to our booking needs. We clearly communicated our needs for a handicap room as well as a double room to accommodate 3 family members. Nothing was as ordered when we arrived an hour past check in time. The handicap room had a tub when we requested a walk in shower. There was absolutely no storage in the room or bathroom. There was no safe in the room. We were told that this was how all handicap rooms were. There was no soap in the room. It took two requests from housekeeping to get soap and the head of housekeeping totally contradicted the front desk and said she would get us a room to meet our needs. At 10:30 pm we had to repack all our luggage and move to another room. This room did have a walk-in shower, a small free standing set of drawers in the bathroom, no other storage and a safe that was unreachable and literally on top of what is euphemistically called a closet. All this for only $250 a night, 3 rooms for 3 nights. Not an insignificant amount of money. The only accommodation we received after asking was a free buffet breakfast which was comparable to a Holiday Inn Express, adequate but certainly not lavish. Also because one person made the reservation they would not award loyalty points to anyone else even though we all paid for our own rooms. It shouldn’t be that complicated to change this request.
