Th expedia search I did was for "breakfast included". When we arrived we were told it was $22 per person per day. I also booked the room 4 months in advance and requested 2 queen beds for myself and my adult daughter. When we arrived we had a King and a pull out couch. The staff were very nice and gave us breakfasts for the wrong room, but neither of these things should have happened

Decent play to stay. Quiet and safe. Just over one block to the Crystal City metro stop. Eat dinner early or make plans in DC. Most bars/restaurants in the surrounding blocks close really early. We walked down Crystal Dr. around 9:30 on a Friday night and almost everything was closed including bars.
