5452 Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 We are taking my son to college at American U., so I was hoping to get close to the embassy row area. After research on this site, I bid as follows:Started the bid for $65 for 4* White House-Downtown - rejectedRebid at $72 for 4* with Springfield added - rejectedRebid at $75 for 4* with Alexandria added - Accepted.Total cost is $150.00 + $29.35 tax = $179.35. Parking is valet only @$28/day.An online reservation through the hotel's website for those dates would have cost $157/day plus tax. Families take note: Priceline default reservation at this hotel generally involves a room with one king size bed. This hotel only has rooms with 1 king, 1 queen, or two twin beds. Rollaways are available but can only be placed in the rooms with the king or queen bed. Link to comment

5452 Posted August 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 OOPS - I think my second bid was to add Dupont Circle-Woodley Park for $70 (still at 4*), then added Springfield for $72, etc. Feel free to edit my post to reflect this if you can. Link to comment
