SWMBO and I have decided to take the boys to D.C. next month as a family vacation. I have realized lately that I need time away from work that doesn't involve sick leave. I haven't taken more than 2 days of annual leave in a row since 2006.
Frankly, we didn't have this in the budget for this year, and so I'm trying to be frugal. Fortunately, a lot of the D.C. is free, or relatively inexpensive. The trouble I'm having is finding a decent room close to a Metro station that may be in a decent part of town. Don't want to stay at the Motel No Tell. We're thinking 2 queens, a queen with a double (and take air mattress), or a king with sleeper sofa (same air mattress).
Any of you guys that might be in the D.C. area have recommendations for accomdations that aren't too expensive (trying to stay under $100 a night, but willing to pay a little more if justifiable) in decent areas of town? Last time I went to D.C., I stayed at someplace in Bethesda, but I was 14 at the time, so I didn't pay much attention...plus that was 25 years ago.
