If you are seeing an event at Verizon Center, this is an ideal spot. The hotel is not cheap ($210/night) but is within walking distance to all of the attractions you see pictures of--it's a lot of walking so wear comfortable shoes. We began at 6th street and wound up at 30th or so. It's also in Chinatown so the food is good. There was something wrong with the toilet in our room but we lived through it, lol. The elevator was not functioning properly on the way out. There is a nice Irish pub in the hotel and stays open for a late night snack.
My crab cake sat on one of the softest kaiser rolls I've ever had. That and fries with a side of cole slaw was more than enough for a nice, hearty lunch. My husband had the Italian sausage and couldn't finish it--it was a nice sized sandwich without looking too daunting. I couldn't see the sausage for all the cheese on top of it, lol--it looked good. You also get a dill pickle slice. The strawberry daiquiris were tasty, and you could also taste the liquor in it--this was no slouch frozen drink, lol! That, and a Corona ended up being about $40 with tip.
