Top George Mason University - Mason Square Hotel Reviews

Washington Plaza Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I’ve stayed in this hotel multiple times and I keep coming back because the location is excellent: the McPherson Square metro station is about 15 minutes walk but the bus stop is right next to the hotel. Checking in was easy and the front desk agent (John) was extremely professional, and he also helped us find restaurants. In my traveling companion’s room there was an issue that we addressed and they fixed it by the time we returned from our trip. They recently renovated the lobby and it is beautiful - I’m hoping they will start renovating the rooms as well as they’re a little outdated. No issues with cleanliness, there’s a coffee/tea maker and a mini fridge in the room and they provided 2 bottles of water and coffee/tea. Housekeeping kept refilling what needed. If you have a car and want to use their garage, that would be an extra charge (I believe it was $50/night). Breakfast is $18/person. When we checked out we asked to store our luggage in their storage and they did accommodate it. I highly recommend this hotel for those who do looking for a nice hotel experience and enjoy what DC can offer."

Hyatt Place Arlington/Courthouse Plaza

"This is a nice Hotel ! Small but with real attention to detail. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay."

Placemakr Marymount Ballston

8/10 Good

"Overall, we enjoyed our stay at Placemakr Arlington. The location was great for what we needed and easily walkable to restaurants and other nearby spots. The apartment was generally quiet and comfortable, although there is construction next door, and the guest bedroom seemed to hear much more outside noise than the other rooms. The apartment itself could definitely use some updating. There was an unpleasant smell when we first walked in, and the flooring had noticeable gaps throughout. There also weren’t enough towels provided for everyone staying in the apartment. The living room setup could be improved as well. There was no coffee table or end tables, making it difficult to comfortably hang out in the space, and there was really only seating for two people to watch TV. The metal blinds also need to be replaced—they didn’t close completely, which left us feeling like there wasn’t enough privacy. Overall, the location was a big plus and we enjoyed our stay, but some updates and attention to the smaller details would make the property much more comfortable."
