"Excellent Renaissance, Dutch, & post-Impressionist collections. Free. Restaurant usually has a menu by a well known DC chef, inspired by a current exhibition. Free concerts at 6.30 each Sunday."

"A great independent book store."

"A relaxed old bar that once served the likes of Mark Twain and Walt Whitman. Stop by at least once. Absinthe seems somewhat overpriced, but I enjoyed local beer on tap."

"Excellent location on Canal & Bourbon, great service. For a nice view, stay on the lowest floor possible. Loved the relaxation kit that was left on my bed each day."

"Great location, excellent service. I loved the Make a Green Choice initiative: give up daily cleaning and receive a $5 food voucher. They'll bring you toiletries and fresh towels if you need it."

"A fascinating place! Don't miss the guided tour at noon on Thursdays and Fridays. The displays and stories of questionable cures are mind boggling. Do check out the top floor's exhibits."
