Red Roof Inn 1 block east of Gallery Place / Chinatown. Clean, safe, quiet, inexpensive, but not fancy by any means. Stayed there in December. Also stopped into Harrington, and it appeared OK from the public areas anyway ... I did not see the rooms. When I travel, I look for the above criteria, I do not need luxury.

There is a relatively new SHeraton Four Points near there, a few blocks north at K St. My sister stayed there a few months ago on some business trip and I was skeptical (because I knew it used to be a crummy Days Inn), but she said it wasn't bad and I've heard that from others, also. Sheraton renovated it a lot and there is a fancy restaurant in there (Corduroy) so I guess that keeps it up. That area is okay, I've been around there at night at restaurants or dropping her off, and it's just a short distance from the Harrington. I would prefer that area to Gallery Place myself.

The Harrington is very old. One that is a couple of blocks the other direction is the JW Marriott -- very close to everything & excellent rooms. Walkable to the White House, the Mall area, etc. Also, right at Metro Center Metro stop. I work a block away from this area & am very familiar with it all.
