Washington, DC (January 2020)



My spouse and I visited Washington, DC mid-week in early January 2020. We stayed at the Holiday Inn Capitol Smithsonian so that my spouse could present at a tradeshow in the building. Although we had planned to stay through the weekend (four nights total), we didn’t love the hotel or its neighborhood, plus one of us wasn’t feeling well, so we came home after just two nights (instead of staying for an additional two). This meant that we really didn’t have much time for dining (only visiting the 21st Amendment bar/restaurant in the hotel and the well-known Indian spot Rasika) and no time for sightseeing. Fortunately, we only live a few hours’ drive away, and we know we’ll be back before we know it.
