Any reasonably priced places for the Inauguration?

I need a place for two people - one adult and one child. Does anyone know where a person can find a reasonably priced place to stay?

Thanks for any and all help.

3. Check out this link

There is a private room per night for 55$$ about five places down on the page.

Good luck! DC is of course expensive so 55 bucks a night would be a steal.

4. Funny, when I saw the headline

I thought it meant is there a reasonably priced place to HOLD the Inauguration?

It has a continental breakfast, the owners are great & they have an off duty cop for their security. Nice people, all. It is within a mile of the Metro, and there is high rise, reasonable parking at the Metro stop. I was there for a week and did not regret it. The price was more than reasonable.

7. Try Gaithersburg, MD - prices will be lower

Comfort Inn
http://www.comfortinnshadygrovehotel.com/

Red Roof Inn
16001 Shady Grove Road
Rockville
(301) 987-0965

Both are close to the Shady Grove Metro - about an hour's ride from downtown on the Red Line. I think they might have shuttle service to the metro. I don't know what they're like, though.
