We stayed 3 nights at Americana recently. Incredible value for money. Excellent location, large, comfortable, clean rooms and good and friendly service. The metro is just a block away giving one great access to different areas. The 'free' breakfast was a routine pre-fab affair, nothing to write home about but adequate. The only issue we had was not with the... More

We were disappointed with our experience at the Americana. I'm listing pros & cons to share with any potential guests to consider before staying at this hotel/motel. PROS: price (super low), great location, free parking, excellent WiFi connection, lovely woman at front desk addressed our concerns and refunded our third night when we shared that we would be leaving early....

Second time we've stayed here. For the money can't beat it. We paid less than 1/2 the "good deal" rate our friends had at a nearby hotel. Nice continental breakfast is a bonus. Best part is the shuttle that will take you to the airport, metro and other nearby spots. Staff is very accommodating. Furniture and decor may be dated... More

I've just got back from 5 nights at the Americana with 5 friends from the UK. Had we stayed just one night, I think it would have felt disappointing, but we really enjoyed ourselves because we had a chance to get into the rhythm of the hotel.. The Americana is a busy Motel - it offers good value for Washington,... More

I've stayed here once a year for over 20 years. I love the location, right across the street from the Crystal City Marriott which has the subway in their underground mall. Tons of taxi service right at your fingertip. Rooms have been recently updated and are always clean. Free breakfast in the lobby every morning, tasty coffee, muffins, bagels, donuts,... More

Our family was looking for a clean, safe, and affordable place to stay the night before a morning flight out of Reagan National Airport. To our surprise, we found it. The Americana Hotel is a one-of-a-kind gem. The decor and fixtures were from a long time ago - but they were all clean and functional. The prices were substantially lower... More

Our family of four decided to stay one night in DC while our daughter had an interview. After seeing reviews on Trip Advisor I thought the Americana fit our criteria- reasonable price, close to the Metro, free parking and a complimentary breakfast. We booked several weeks in advance and paid by credit card. We arrived early and were told that... More

We completely understand your frustration and sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by having to relocate you. One of our travel partners had a glitch in their system which caused them to overbook us and then we unfortunately had two of our rooms out of service. We DO NOT overbook our hotel on purpose and tried everything we could think... More

We stayed four nights while seeing the sights in DC. The location is great for the Metro, restuarants, and shopping. The staff is great, and the guys driving the shuttle were wonderful. They were available when we needed them. The free breakfast was perfect. My only concern was why our room was stuffy on cool days? We had to run... More

Stayed two nights while in DC for a baseball game. I knew this was an older hotel and was very happy with my stay. Room was clean and staff was friendly. The free parking and breakfast was very nice. The area was very safe, close to metro and plenty of restaurants and shopping. A great value for the DC area.... More
