Holey moley, what are you? A Rockefeller? :-)
Sounds like you got the Penthouse Model, (Older Residence Inn's) Thats a party room, I know, I party.......
Does that mean you'll pay for this portion of the gig? I'll need more details - like that card's expiration date...
Good proximity.
For general information there are much better rates as you move further out of the city, but still on the metro.
We were able to get a Club Level room at a Sheraton with 2 double beds for $200. ($50 per person.) Actually, we've booked 5 of those rooms. :-)
It is definitely possible to save on rooms, especially if you are willing to share.
OK...I was thinking I'd jump a JetBlue flight from Oakland to DC and split a room...but golly gee $309?!? The mind boggles!
My Alexandria brother passed away recently and his empty house (I call it the Ody J. Fish Memorial Home) isn't quite ready for sale yet.
It's just a few taxi miles from the Alexandria Metro, so that's part of how I'm affording this trip.
I don't have approval from the rest of the family for outside visitors yet, but it might be a last ditch crash pad for those FR brothers and sisters that can't find last minute accommodations.
The plumbing works and the furnishings are nothing but freshly sanded and finished floors, but it'll suit me just fine, in full temper with the media's perception of Dubya's cowboy/bunk house demeanor.
After the party, there's tough work ahead. Sleeping and waking up in a hard place is always a great motivation (at least for me).
Will post further if I get approval for visitors from the family, and will read my Freepmail thereafter.
