The Drake is a wonderful hotel with tons of charm. The staff was always very friendly and helpful providing tips for getting a bus card or an umbrella when it was raining. It was a wonderful location, not far from the metro and very close to the bus stop I needed to get to my conference. It’s also right next to the water.
