Hotels Near Good Shepherd Roman Catholic Church in Fairfax County

The hotel is on the highway side, because it is early in the morning, I feel that the surrounding safety factor is not particularly high, there are some people strolling in the corridor, but the overall feeling is also ok, the room is very big and clean, driving from the dc city is also ten A few twenty minutes or so. The price of more than 50 knives is still relatively cost-effective.

Great location! There are so many restaurants right around the block on King Street. This is a very nice hotel. An oldie but goodie. Very large atrium where you can sit and enjoy the included breakfast every morning. VIP happy hour was perfect. We would definitely stay there again. Clean and friendly.

This property was probably a nice place at one time. It’s still pretty good but seems like it’s on the way down. There were several signs from “management” that gave me pause and seemed like “red flags.” One sign said if you were extending your stay and didn’t pay by noon they would take your possessions and hold them until you paid. Makes me think this is a common problem in this hotel if it warrants a sign. Another sign said if you were caught wasting breakfast food you would be charged a fee. Makes me feel as if the clientele frequenting this hotel must be of questionable character if this is happening often enough to warrant a sign. There were other signs but I won’t go through them all, but overall it didn’t give me the sense that it was a great place to be and I felt afraid to make a mistake. Like what if I tried the waffles and didn’t like them? Would I need to eat then anyway. The shower curtain rod was coming detached from the wall and since the rod was curved and sagging it caused the curtain to collect in the middle and basically not work as you’d like a shower curtain to work. Overall, I was anxious to leave this hotel. Luckily it was a quick, one-night, stop. Next time I will probably spend the extra money and stay somewhere else.

The price is very good, safe, and travel is convenient. There is a parking lot, but it is not big and has to be charged. There is a big supermarket opposite, the things are very good, and there are many kinds of wines. There are also flowers. Very lively place!

The staff at this hotel was very kind. The rooms were clean and nice. The hallways were super dark which I didn’t like. The rooms seem like they got updated within the past few years but the bathrooms definitely need to be updated still. The alarm clock was extremely bright and kept me up most of the night. I didn’t realize that I could dim it until the next morning. The pillows are horrible, I suggest bringing your own unless you want to sink into the pillow all night. But I would give it another try if we were ever in the area again.

The location is very good, downstairs is a large shopping mall, there are tribute teas nearby, and the environment is also ok, but the pillows are really hard to sleep, I have never slept so uncomfortable, my husband and I did it all night Wake up from a dream. The fact that breakfast is included is that everyone orders 20 dollars for free. If you have more, you have to pay by yourself. More or less will be a little more. The taste is not very good.

This is a 3-star hotel and it shows. As its name indicates, the rooms are suites and come with a small kitchenette, which includes a small sink, refrigerator, coffee maker, and a small microwave. Our room also had a small living room with a couch. The TV in our room was set at an awkward position, opposite the wall that separates the living room and the bed. This was probably an attempt to be visible from both, but made it difficult to watch from either space. The room did not have a safe and there was only one drawer to store things. The cupboard was good size and came with an ironing board. The AC was quite loud and we were staying on one of the lower floors so the general noise level in the room was quite higher than in other hotels we stayed. Nearby (0.2 miles) there is a small mall with a choice of restaurants and a grocery store. This hotel is near the George Mason University and is one of the university's preferred hotels. So many families stay here when they visit the university. However there is no hotel shuttle to take you there. So, you either need to have a car or to pay taxi back and forth. The breakfast can be improved. We didn't expect it to be a full continental breakfast, but it seemed minimal. There were no bagels, English muffins, waffles or similar. On the other hand there were pre-packaged cereal and milk, pre-packages hot sandwiches, boiled eggs and some fruit. This could be due to COVID, but the look of these things did not inspire confidence for their quality. Again this is a 3-star inexpensive hotel, so one cannot complain that much.

We have stayed at the Fairfax Marriott Fair Oaks 25+ times over the last 8 years while visiting our son and his wife who live in Fairfax. Additionally, we have frequently had friends and family stay there while visiting too. Originally, we loved the hotel, but it has increasingly become worn and in disrepair. This past weekend will likely be the last time we stay there, unless measures are taken to correct many of the issues we so disappointedly encountered. A large group of us traveled to Fairfax and all booked rooms at the hotel (10 rooms) . We found the rooms in need of better cleaning and physical and mechanical repairs. It started when I arrived, got to the room which was not very clean, had torn draperies, and an air conditioner which clanged constantly. The maintenance man, who was lovely, came promptly to try to fix the noise issue, but could not. As a result, my room was changed to another floor, with no one helping me. The next room, had a very dark entry from the hall, as the lights there were not working. Upon entry, the room was also in need of a better cleaning, the door handle was falling off, and the faucets needed repair. When family and friends arrived, they too were certainly not thrilled with their rooms for similar reasons. Well before coming, I spoke with the front desk and hospitality agent about the possibility of having a space available to greet family and friends as the arrived and so we could spend a bit of time together. Although they said yes, the next day I received a email from the banquet manager, stating there were no such spaces available. In the past, we’ve used a hospitality room there for this purpose, but I was told there was absolutely no way they could accommodate my request. On The night when guests arrived, the hospitality roo off of the main lobby was in fact vacant all night, but the front desk manager said we needed to ask for it in advance to get tables and chairs. I had that request, in writing, but it did not matter. They did finally make a space arrangement for us when they realized we were simply going to stay in the lobby., because they did not want some of the children ‘running wild,’ in the lobby. Overall, the hotel and staff did not do much to be accommodating or welcoming, with a few notable exceptions (the woman overseeing the restaurant for breakfast was very kind and helpful). We are Marriott Bonvoy members, and ad stated earlier, have been frequent guests at this hotel. Unless significant changes are implemented very shortly, we will choose to stay elsewhere, as there are many fine options in this area.

Checked in smoothly, room was clean. Not a single complaint I can come up with. One of the receptionist, Beverly, was super caring and was very interested in learning about the activities that happen!
