arrived at the hotel before check inn and the room was ready, a/c unit in the room was broken, but was fixed in minutes. bathroom was kind of small. business travelers mark my words.....NO WIRELESS INTERNET IN THE ROOM!!! ROOMS HAVE ETHERNET PACKS ON THE WORK DESK. THE HOTEL SAYS IT IS CABLE MODEM. MUCH SLOWER THAN DSL!!!!!!!!! beds are not the best. rooms need to be renovated. a/c unit very loud. nice breakfast buffet. not many good places to eat around the hotel area. hotel has great parking lot. i would stay here again.

My wife and I stayed here at the Loisdale Court property and it was very pleasant. Our room was obviously updated recently which was very fortunate. Don't know how many of the rooms were like this. It was tastefully decorated, too. Mattresses were firm and even...no lumps. We stay in Hampton Hotels often and would say that this Hampton property is one of the better ones we've been in because of the updating of furnishings and attractiveness of our room. Everything worked like it was supposed to (bathroom, elevators, continental breakfast, and front desk all OK). The level of comfort made it a real value for the $88 rate we paid (add $10 taxes to room rate).

My family recently visited the Washington DC area, and decided to avoid the heavy traffic. Springfield, VA is on the outskirts of the metro rail system, so traffic is light and parking is free! The Hampton Inn offers a free shuttle service to the Springfield-Franconia metro station, which is about a five minute drive. We used the shuttle twice, and it was very efficient.
Our overall stay was average because of a few issues.
1. The outside appearance of the hotel is not good. The landscaping outside of the front entrance is full of weeds and unkempt, which is a very poor first impression.
2. Going to our room for the first time (on the second floor) our elevator door only opened half way. We had to manually force the doors to open all the way. Again, a bad first impression. But fortunately this did not occur again during our stay.
3. After relaxing in our room for about an hour, we discovered that the television did not work. The remote did nothing, and the power button on the front of the TV was missing! We were getting ready to leave for dinner, so we phoned the front desk. They promised to fix it or replace the TV before we returned. We came back to find the TV operating. The button was still missing, so we can only assume that the remote needed new batteries. But still, it was handled efficiently and professionally.
4. The room was small and the decor is slightly aged. There were several stains which appeared to be permanent marker on the carpet (probably a child that got crazy while Mom and Dad weren't looking).

But overall, we were still happy with our stay. The room was very clean, including the bathroom. The cleaning staff did a great job of cleaning up after my family each night (two small children), including fingerprints on the tables and mirrors each night. The beds were extremely comfortable, as always with Hampton Inn. Their pillow top mattresses are always superb. The shower was superior as usual, with great water pressure and the adjustable shower head. We had a microwave and mini fridge in the room, which was a wonderful convenience.

The free breakfast is always a plus with Hampton, and this was the typical Hampton Inn breakfast. My only complaint would be the lack of a microwave in the breakfast area, because those biscuits are so much better hot!

The staff was exceptional! Extremely friendly in every situation. And the shuttle service to the metro station is a huge benefit. We never waited more than 5 minutes to go one way or the other.

Overall, this a nice hotel. It is not luxury, but a great value. It is family friendly (and pet friendly, from my observations), clean, quiet, and a good location to experience DC without the traffic hassle!

This is a fabulous Hampton with comfortable rooms, very clean and a friendly staff. The room had fluffy bedding with duvet covers and excellent mattress. Federal style furniture made this Hampton seem an upscale hotel. Bathroom was a tad small, but other than that a wonderful seldom-found experience when traveling I-95 these days. Good restaurants in area, as well as stores and very convienient to I-95 without highway noise.
