The Amtrak waiting area in New Carrollton can only be described as dilapidated and shabby. From the…read morerusted chairs, peeling and broken flooring,, rundown bathroom and food counter, and poor customer service I'm usually arriving right before boarding or leaving immediately upon arrival so I haven't had to sit in the waiting area in some time. Unfortunately this time I had to wait for my Uber and I can't believe with the high fare costs Amtrak has let this location deteriorate to this degree. Every single row of chairs had cushions in poor condition and were completely rusted. The brick floor is crumbling with broken pieces of brick tile strewn about. The food counter looks dingy and old with several broken pieces of wood veneer leaned up or lying on the floor. The bathroom is what initially made me really take a closer look at the station as a whole. The 'men's' restroom is available for customer use...had it not been an emergency I'd have waited until I reached home. I asked the Amtrak agent at the counter if a restroom was available and she told me it was for customers only. I told her I had just gotten off the train from NYC and she requested to see my ticket. I scrolled through my emails to find the ticket and held my phone up against the window. She was beyond rude in her tone and affect towards me. 'Make it bigger I can't see. Bigger, now scroll over' she finally got up to buzz me into the bathroom, which took a few tries, but I was finally able to open the door. No one should have to use a bathroom in this condition. The state of the restroom is what horror films are made of. If you think this is hyperbole or an over exaggeration just look at the photos (taken earlier this morning) and see if you agree. With all the money customers are paying to use Amtrak it's beyond disrespect that any waiting room is in this condition. I didn't think anything could be worse than Port Authority in NY, but this takes the cake

I haven't been here in a while. This place is ABSOLUTE Trash!…read more If you get dropped off "behind" the station, just know it's ALL UNDER construction. I had to walk the "walkway bridge" to get to the station. The elevator was out of service. There was only 1 escalator that went up. So, if you are disabled, you can't get down into the station from the walkway. This place needs a SERIOUS OVERHAUL. Demolish it and start over!! Just like with all of the new build that surrounds this place, and hides how absolute disgusting it is! Seats to wait at, are old. Floors are dirty. Bathroom was ATROCIOUS! Hand dryers are made for little kids, and you will have to bend down low just to use. There was no soap to even use. Only 1 bathroom sink worked. There was about 1 foot left on the toilet paper roll on the stall that I used. Amtrak signs to signify departures/arrival information is up so high, that you can't even see the board fully if you're in the waiting area Also non of the "automated doors" worked. NONE. Cant imagine what this is like for those disabled, in wheelchairs etc. There is still a little cafe inside, and vending machines. Also machines to buy Amtrak, Marc tickets Outside construction is new to the building of the new Purple line. Honestly, I would rather go to BWI or Union station for my Amtrak needs

If it was just me, you could seriously throw me anywhere and I'd be fine. However, with the family, I need a big assurance that there would be no issues at the metro station. This place checks all the right boxes. It's simple to get to. You just pull up and there's no tickets, you only pay a flat fee for parking there. As far as walking to the metro, very simple and self explanatory with with metro cards to the left of the entrance. Not much to really say here as I hope others read this that are trying to find safe, effective ways into the city. This one is a win. Enjoy!

This station is also more cost effective because it is in DC & metro charges by zones. I've never had an issue at this station. The station manager is always friendly & willing to help you with an issues (farecard, SmarTrip, or questions regarding your trip). The buses seem to also be on time so there is always someone at the station but there is never anyone loitering. This is now my go to station when traveling into the city. I have never used their parking lot but I'm sure that your car would be safe if you leave it there...never heard of any issues at this station with robberies or carjacking; very commuter friendly station.

Like any other station, you have some weirdo's; just ignore them and you'll be fine. The good thing about this station is that you're within walking distance from Addison Plaza, so if you're hungry, thirty, or just want to shop a little you're just minutes away.

I then walk a short distance, past all the people "posted up" against the rail to the C 21,22,29 Bus stop to find a crowd of people standing as closely to the curve as possible, in a "I'm getting on first" fashion. In the midst of that clutter, there is always some middle aged bum with a beard that pulls out a Marlboro 100 and lights it - he inhales his cancer stick, and spews out the remains into the air where all the school kids are waiting as well. I felt so bad for this one kid standing behind him as he blew the smoke right into her face. Also, forget about getting a seat on the bench - There is always this young gal and her 5 kids taking up all the seats. She is sure to sit them sparingly throughout the bench while she watches them from a distance and takes her much needed "smoke break". If her kids don't take up all the seats, her bags will. But wait - there is more! The guys are atrocious! They will squeeze their way unto a bench, and if you walk up and even look at them - they will pretend your not their, or blast their music so they cant even hear you ask too sit. When the bus arrives - they pop up and run to the front and will look at you like your retarded if ask for their seat (which most woman don't, they just end up standing on this overly crowded, loud, long bus ride). The Hispanics only get up for their kind, and the young black guys are just a joke when it comes to chivalry. I only seen a young black male get up once for someone and in him I said "humanity restored". Well this is just a sum up of what you will expect at this station.

Compared to other metro station this one isn't the best as there is no covered parking, the station leaves you in the elements, and more often than not the escalators don't work. Even when busy there is always parking in the lot, however. Getting picked up and dropped off by RideShare providers can be hit or miss sometimes as different drivers get sent to different entrances. Many metro riders anticipate being picked up at the "Kiss and Ride" however about 70% of the time RideShares go to the opposite side of the metro on SGT. Hartman Ln. I've been confused myself and seen others with the same confusion. Additionally, when it comes to park and ride, the parking spaces are TIGHT! I mean I have paid for reserved parking to ensure I have more space when getting in and out of my car.
