Falls Church Marriott Fairview Park

Pleasant

Liked: Lobby was beautiful and staff was welcoming.
Disliked: Charging an extra $15/day to park was ridiculous. Additionally, roping off available parking to paying visitors of the hotel for an outside event was a fail. Also, most of the ice machines on each floor did not work and there was no exhaust fan in the bathroom in our room.

Liked: It was okay.
Disliked: Nothing.

Last time I stay at...

Liked: It was close to where we were spending time.
Disliked: Charging for parking?! I have never stayed at a hotel anywhere in my 50 years on this planet that charged me to park my vehicle in the hotel parking lot; and to not mention anything about this until check-in?! Room was not very clean and everything in it was damaged in some fashion. Bathroom sink only had hot water; no cold water came out of the cold water tap. Pillows were attrocious; too small, no support at all, not enough pillows. Could clearly hear the people in the neighboring rooms- kid screaming, mom talking, dad talking; woke us up numerous times.

Liked: Clean, friendly staff

No longer a beautiful hotel.

Liked: Nothing
Disliked: 1.The hotel was renovated and lost all its charm and luxury.The lobby is not welcoming or beautiful.The once beautiful and luxury restaurant looked like an enclosed area that was under construction.2.The parking is not free and it is so far from the hotel that I didn’t even feel safe to walk.No security around.3.The room did not have a safe and the refrigerator was almost falling every time we wanted to open it.4.There is not a pool anymore.5.The hotel seems to be a place filled with lots of people but has neglected to provide a beautiful ,elegant and well decorated environment for guests.When people stay at a hotel , specially if paying for a Marriott ,it is because they want a nice place to stay .This is not happening in this Marriott Bonvoy .Well , so far these Bonvoy are usually not too beautiful.They are usually plain .
