Thanks

Another vote for the ES. It's quite close to Capital One Arena, and a reasonable walk from most of the Smithsonians + the National Mall.

Capitol Hill may have protest activity just FYI; the side of the Capitol facing the Supreme Court has had barriers up for several weeks limiting where pedestrians can go for that reason, but the other side (facing the Mall) is quite open. Bring bottled water and sunscreen! Should be very sunny and hot.
