[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Stay somewhere fun in DC proper and rent a car to look at close-in suburbs. Staying at a hotel in the suburbs is depressing. Look at Hotel Monaco (right in the middle of Penn Quarter and near tons of great restaurants); the Graham in Georgetown; or the Hotel Carlyle off Dupont Circle. [/quote] Thanks! Are those also residential neighborhoods? Of course, I know them as touristy areas. [/quote] Dupont and Georgetown are residential, but expensive. I was thinking you could stay somewhere nice and get a sense of how much DC has changed and then explore residential areas. [/quote] They are fun to stay at and vibrant, which is what OP wants. There is not much vibrancy in the suburbs where she might be looking to buy, but DC is so small driving from the nearby burb into these areas that are more vibrant is not a big deal on weekends. On weekdays her life is likely going to revolve around her house and job, they are going to be busy and should live near jobs if possible. [/quote]
