Loved the views and the space itself! Very nice and modern. The shower head in the master bathroom had weak low pressure water coming out. I called the front desk the next day and maintenance was upstairs in no time to replace the shower head. Great rooftop area as well! I didn’t get a chance to get in the jacuzzi, but the water looked clean and was warm/hot when I put my hand in. Cons: Wished the bedrooms had TVs and wished the couch was a little bit bigger for two people to lounge on the couch together. Definitely will book again for a nice weekend staycation or friend gathering!

Me and my Family loved our stay at the Placemakr in Ballston. Excellent customer service from front Desk to Housekeeping. We had a 2 Bedroom with Balcony and it might of had more closet space than my house back home does. Its to much good things to say about this place. But just FYI if you are parking here and you have a big SUV parking can be a little tight and also our Balcony was really small no room for kicking back but I will definitely stay again 5 stars*****

We really enjoyed our stay at Placemark Balleston. The room was large, clean, comfortable, well-laid out and contained all the amenities we needed. There were many restaurants in the area and the metro line was an easy way to access the Smithsonian. The staff were friendly and helpful. We also used the gym facilities and found them clean, well stocked with equipment and the exercise machines wwere varied and all working. This is definitely a place we recommend and would stay in again if we go back to Washington.

I was impressed with gentleman at front desk when I checked in Friday. Very professional and helped with check-in issues. Room was great. The rest of front desk staff may need some additional customer service training. They seem to not realize that there are guest that do not live in building and lack patience. Overall my stay was a good one.

My stay was great! Besides a dead roach coming out of the yellow blanket in the closet and housekeeping came by twice BEFORE checkout. We know what time it was, they came by at 7:30AM AND 10:38AM. Which is super annoying bc we were sleeping. Checkout isn’t until 11. Why are they knocking on the doors at 7:30? We had a 3.5hr drive and been up since the first housekeeper came by which sucks for us!
