[QUOTE=Uniter;10818234]I'll third or fourth the Hotel Palamar. Funky, fresh, and (sometimes) affordable.
Sorry to hijack this thread a bit but I too have been looking at The Palomar for a DC visit (from Ireland) in April.
One of the great concerns I have is that it is a pet friendly hotel. I believe it has a pet-free floor bt I have visions of dogs and cats running around barking mad.
I have a bit of a phobia when it comes to hygiene and animals. Is this a totally irrational fear? Please tell me that the Palomar is not actually a pet haven. I believe the bar is called The Bark Bar.
If you think I would not be a suitable patron for this hotel please recommend another in The Dupont Area of similiar standards and price range.
Thanks a mil for your help.
