Great place to stay in D.C
Stayed at the River Inn for four nights in June 2012. This Inn is just a great place to stay while in D.C. It is close to the downtown tourist areas, but is in a more residential area of Foggy Bottom. The metro is close by and there are many nice restaurants in the area. The room itself was lovely. Large, spacious, very clean and comfortable. The Kitchenette was an added bonus. The price for parking if you bring your car (as we did) is a bit high, but on average with all other hotels in the D.C. area and not more than we ex pected. I walked each day to the downtown area which took no more than 15 mins. If you are not much of a walker the FoggyBottom Metro station is only a couple of minutes from the Inn. I also purchased from the front desk, a voucher for the Big Red Bus. They have three routes in and around the D.C. and Georgetown area which allows you to hop on and hop off. I used the bus to get to areas that were further away like Georgetown and then walked around. We have been to three other hotels in this area in the past, but the River Inn is the only one I liked enough to go back to. We have already made reservations to go back in October for another four days
