Cannot rate The Poppy higher. Amazing stay. Incredible hospitality. We got in at 6am, and basically had to sit in a park close by, but we took our chances and went back, just as a staff member was leaving. She was very happy to let us leave our bags, but did a quick check and saw our room hadnt been occupied the night before, so she let us in! An absolute living legend! Our room was stunning, we ended up staying another night. We LOVED our stay here. Highly highly recommend. Great location in a nice quiet part of Georgetown, but a short walk to M street.

All the museums are wonderful and free.

All the museums are wonderful and free. The postal and African American were amazing. Indian and Gallery of Art, too. Best in two hour bursts then grab a bite there or nearby. Use Ubers or public trans. Little parking. Weekdays less crowded.

The Smithsonian Institution is great. All museums are free.

The Smithsonian Institution is great. All museums are free. This was my 6th visit, and now I visited every museum of the Smithsonian. I particularly recommend the National Gallery, the National Museum of Natural History, and the Freer Gallery of Art and Arthur M. Sackler Gallery. The National Gallery has in my opinion the best painting ever made by Leonardo da Vinci, the portrait of Ginevra da Benci. This one is much better than La Jaconde in Le Louvre (and I am French...). Another Museum worth to visit for its paintings is the Phillips collection in Georgetown.
