Hi Katie,

I just wanted to say thanks for gathering all the info on your website! I’m from MN and I am planning for a trip to DC in the spring and happened to come upon your website randomly when searching. It is helping me tremendously with my planning. Come to think of it, I wondered if you’ve been featured on the the tv news stations anywhere. I am recalling something about this on the news. Anyways, thanks again!

Hi Katie

Dear Katie

We wanted you to know how much we appreciated and used your information on DC. We stayed at the Marriott Courtyard at Dunn Loring February 10, 11 and 12 and used the Metro. The hotel was great, Metro easy to use and plenty of places to eat nearby. We spent most of our time visiting the museums on the Mall. Everyone was very helpful. We live in Indiana and have visited DC before either flying or taking the train. This time we took two days and drove. Location was great.

Hi Jeff & Kate,

Firstly I have to say that yours is one of the most informative travel sites I have ever seen on the internet – bar none! I’ve been searching for months for something like this and your website has really excited me.

We are a couple travelling from London to Dulles in…….

Once again 5 stars for a fantastic website. It’s brilliant.

With kind regards

Kate,

I like your website. I found your website through google search, and I recommended it to the other examiners of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau= when they come to Washington, D.C. on business.

Warm regards,

Dear Jeff and Kate,

A great website, truly informative saves a lot of time on the learning curve and searching especially for folks who have a short time to take it all in and decide what to do next. What you have done is totally democratized that and made it simple for all us visitors.
