VA Newington Tours

It was a good stay, the internet connectivity was just terrible. Aside that, everything was good.

It was a beautiful hotel. I will say the morning staff at the registration welcome desk, specifically Gretta, was not warm or friendly, very robotic, and never smiled, which really removes the whole inviting customer service appeal. The valets were awesome, especially Raymond, very personable. The breakfast was amazing, and I loved the outside dining experiences, especially in the morning. The other staff were also fabulous, room service turned down our beds, and they were both professional and personable. We had our 3-year-old granddaughter and invited her to use the toy box of toys outside, which brought her joy. Both my husband and I are professionals and entrepreneurs, for over 20+ years, I would just offer a personal suggestion might be to offer a cheese and cracker light happy hour for guests to unwind, with a little music or local entertainment which shows appreciation to the guest and a personal side of your incredibly beautiful ambiance and unique side of your hotel. I would also mention to both Gretta and the other associate that her professionalism is great but by greeting customers/guest with a friendly smile makes them feel at ease especially for us after almost a 7-hour drive to come and visit our son just a short block away. Verbal testimonials go a long way especially as we will be visiting again and again, making that guest feel appreciated also goes a long way. The evening staff was great at the front desk always with a smile and eager to help...
