thereuare Posted May 3, 2011 Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 I use name your own price regularly in orlando with great success.It would be appreciated if you began to share all your wins with the board. Perhaps the information gained from your Orlando stays will help somebody else, just as you're looking to be helped by the DC wins of others :)I am in the process of planning a trip with a child to washingon dc without a car, can anyone give advice/recommendations for safe areas in dc. with metro access.Generally speaking Convention Center-Capitol Hill and White House-Downtown are the most frequently bid zones, with Dupont Circle being a close third. However, much will have to do with your desired star rating... what are the date(s) of your stay and expected budget?Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases... please click this PRICELINE link before replying.Thanks.

lillybo Posted May 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 June 12 - 16th are the dates. around $90/night and 3 star or better is what I would like. I am more concerned about picking the safest area. Link to comment
thereuare Posted May 3, 2011 Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 At the moment rates are extremely high for these dates and i'm doubtful that $90 will be enough to land you anything 3* or higher inside the 'city limits'. Have you checked rates thru conventional booking channels... what is the best deal you're able to find at an acceptable property?Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

lillybo Posted May 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 Extremely high in the downtown areas 300 to over 600 for 3 stars..Is this just a bad time of year or something going on these dates? Or is this normal rates? Dupont Circle, Arlington, Crystal city are less expensive but not familar with the area. Can be flexible with area and time of vacation if necessary. Link to comment
