Washington, DC
Given its location spitting distance from the Convention Center, Eldon Suites puts up plenty of business folk. Families dig it, too. You get much more space than in similarly priced hotels. Even the smallest unit has 600 sq ft, along with a fully equipped kitchen and separate living area. The neutral decor is nothing fancy, but ah, so much room!
There's lots of construction going on in this part of the city, so noise and blocked sidewalks can be an issue.
