The hotel had a great location. The general manager was absolutely wonderful and accommodating. Some employees were great, while others needed serious training.
I am somewhat likely
to return to the Alexandria Fulton Hotel and Convention Center.
I might recommend it to friends.

Good
This hotel went the extra mile in many aspects of my stay. From the housekeeper to the front desk and everyone in between. I had a great stay at this hotel. I come to Alexandria often and I normally stay on MacArthur Dr. but I love this Downtown...

I really dont know where to begin describing my experience at the Holiday Inn in Downtown Alexandria. It is extremely difficult for me to summarize an experience this awful, but I will try.
The customer service, if I can even call it that, was the worst I have ever had the displeasure of dealing with. The front desk clerk was rude, unapologetic, and condescending. She was like this to just about everyone I spoke with in the same wedding party as myself. I dont see how she still has a job. The hotel completely messed up my reservation. They were not apologetic or helpful in the least. Every time I asked for a managers assistance, they were always conveniently Not available.
This hotel has two elevators. One does not work at all and the other takes 10-15 minutes to reach your floor after pressing the button. My room was old and dirty. My allergies, which usually dont act up, immediately began to after spending 10 minutes or so in my room. If you are visiting Alexandria and need to stay downtown, there are many more hotels to choose from 5 minutes away on I-49 North.
The only redeeming quality of this hotel was the free wireless internet, but you will be able to find this just about anywhere. If you are considering the Holiday Inn in Downtown Alexandria as a hotel option, I highly advise staying elsewhere. You will regret it if you dont.
If you like cleanliness, friendly

Horrible
If you like cleanliness, friendly customer service reps, non-allergenic rooms, and working elevators, then this hotel is NOT for you. I HIGHLY suggest going elsewhere. You can find better deals with nicer amenities 5 minutes away on I-49 North. ...
