Hello All...I am moving to DC to take on a new job and need some suggestions on a potential short term residence that may be available starting the 16th (Saturday) in the metro area (DC, VA, MD). I have checked online (hotels), Craigslist (Rooms) and I am hoping that someone might have another suggestion I could look into. The best I have found so far is Extended Stay America in Springfield, VA at $99.00/night. Any suggestions would be appreciated as I will be heading out Friday on Amtrak and should be there around noon on Saturday. Having a place to stay when I get there would be helpful to say the least!

Contact your new employer and ask if they have a corporate rate that they can get for you. When I took the position that I'm in now my employer made my reservations but I payed with my credit card to get me the corporate rate. I stayed at a Marriot Suites. It had bed, bath, and full kitchen so that I could cook in my room. The kitchen had a 3 burner stove, refrig/freezer, microwave, all pots, pans, spoons, flatwear, coffee maker, dishwasher etc. I payed $76 a night at the corporate rate for a $130 a night suite.

Thanks, but I did that, and they don't. I appreciate the advice, though...

Hello Ray!

I am not actually back yet as I am still trying to get things worked out. I have been unable to continue with the visa and since my girl broke up with me about a year ago, I have decided to wait until I get everything worked out and head down to BAQ and see Jamie. He needs to fix his website, though...there don't seem to be any pics anymore!

I can get to the site, but when I go to the Latin Women link, it shows me the names, but no pics. I don't have anything blocking them, so I don't think it is from my end, but if you can see them, then it might be...

When I do finally get ready to make a trip, I may need to give Jamie a call and see what might be going on!
