Anyone who might be in DC can also help...Please see www.priceline.com, click on hotels and then DC....Which areas should we consider?

Convention Ctr - Capitol Hill area
White House - Downtown
Dupont Circle - Woodley Park
Georgetown - Foggy Bottom
Or should we consider any Hotel next to the subway/train and stay out of the downtown area?

$20 from Washington - "A line in the sand is where it's at. I can't join you all but I appreciate you making a difference."

I recommend staying in the King Street/Old Town Alexandria area, just south of Crystal City and right on the Blue and Yellow Metro lines. There are plenty of hotels, which will likely be a bit cheaper than closer to downtown, and Old Town has tons of restaurants and historical sights. And it's only about a 20 minutes Metro ride into downtown.

Here's info on the Metro train/bus system, which includes a trip planner and visitor info: http://www.wmata.com

Best to take the Metro in from the Burbs.

Will canvass the DC Chapter for hotel recommendations.
