definitely do the monuments at dark - they are very cool -

and you have good advise on Metro - you can buy metro cards at the stations put money on, watch the balances and reload as you go. A car is a bother in DC, ds drives in DC, but he lives in the area - and knows where he is going!

We stayed in the Residence Inn (which is a Marriott property, not Hilton) in Dupont Circle recently - we loved having a little kitchen, and it was cheaper than most other hotels on Hotels.com. There are all kinds of restaurants and shops there, and public transport is easy (including to Georgetown - you can take a bus, or taxi/Uber is faster and cost efficient for 3 people).
