thanks!

If you cannot change your flight to get into DCA, I recall there is a bus service between IAD and the end of the Orange Metro line. Runs every half hour or so, fare is about $2 though it may also provide a transfer onto the Metro for a dollar or so more. The Orange line runs right to McPherson Square which I believe is the stop nearest the Hamilton. Check out the IAD website for ground transit information, or the Metro website.

Thanks for the link, mia. Not sure why it didn't show up when I restarted this thread a few days ago.
