| My friend is visiting DC for work and wants to find a dirt cheap hotel around rhe city or NOVA. I have no idea where to look. Tipa. |
| What do you consider cheap? What's his/her per diem? |
| I would advise against this plan. Dirt cheap hotels around here are for hookers and drug dealers. |
| Try Hotwire. My friend got a room at the Palomar Hotel for $100 last weekend. Definitely pay attention to the neighborhood. Dirt cheap isn't cheap when you get robbed and/or assualted. |
| There is a Days Inn at Van Ness that is safe and reasonable |
My dad stays there when he visits. He gets rates as low as $75 and usually not higher than $150/night there. A 5 minute walk to the van ness metro. |
| AirBnB is really the better option. |
| The holiday inn in Rosslyn can be pretty reasonable - especially on the weekends |
