Unfortunately this property has not yet been reported to the board and although i did research it, i'm not able to gain any insight as to what hotel this may be... have you looked at the 3.5* for the same price or the 4* for ~$10 more? Is there anything in particular you need from this stay?

I was attracted to the free parking and breakfast. We're stopping in the Alexandria area for just one night to visit Mount Vernon on our way to our final destination (Williamsburg). We'll be arriving pretty late as we'll be driving from the Boston area and then leaving first thing in the morning, so we don't need anything too special. Maybe for the price, I'll just roll the dice. Will report back with whatever we do.

Thanks for checking!

While this property has not yet been ID'd/reported to the board, I am seeing a 100% customer approval rating on the listing (and a 4.5/5 tripadvisor rating on the detail page) when searching for these dates, so reviews are certainly quite good. The tripadvisor rating is seen on the bottom half of the detail page - do confirm that you are also seeing it as well if you are interested in this listing. (click "see detail".)

Thank you for keeping us updated and for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.

So I went for it and got Holiday Inn Express - ALEXANDRIA FORT BELVOIR. Reviews on Tripadvisor look decent, and the location is actually great for Mount Vernon. Advance purchase rate directly on their website was $128 +tax, so I think this was a pretty good deal at $93 after Hotwire fees/taxes.

Used the HOTWIRE link here. Thanks for all of your help.
