Priceline Hotel: Advice needed for DC April 15-18

[j316]

Planning a trip April 15-18, 2010. Prefer hotel close to Metro, will be spending time at CUA (Brookland Metro stop -redline). Have travelled frequently to DC in the past while working, and always stayed at either Grand Hyatt, Crystal Gateway Marriott, or Williard, with the first 2 being very convenient to the Metro. Prices high at all 3 of these hotels during these dates. Would like to find a rate of $100 or less/night, on/near Metro, decent hotel (travelling with teenage daughter - soon to be college student in DC). Advice on which zone we might get the best hotel near Metro for $100/night? Many thanks!

Minimum - 3 stars.

You'll get better rates in Crystal City or Alexandria, but it's a longer trip to Catholic U.

Hi,

Yes, I'm still looking. I did click through the PRICELINE link at the top right of this page.

I have bid twice on Reagan airport area, 3.5 stars at $55, $60, both turned down. I can book the Hilton (3 star I think) directly from the Hilton website for $79. I can rebid today and am thinking of going to $80.

Thanks.
