In the end I was quite happy with the Capital Hilton. We were pleasantly surprised to see how close the hotel is to the White House, and the hotel has quite a nice gift shop on-site (though my adult son missed the word "youth" in a shirt label - the shirt shrank noticeably in the first wash). I might have booked some nights there before our flight was canceled, but maybe I was saving a few more dollars earlier in the week. The only problem we had was that our airline gave us a voucher for one night but delayed our flight two days. I clearly discussed this with the desk clerk the first night, but then was told we were "checked out" after that night. It took a while to resolve. There's also a CVS in the same building, so all in all our "canceled flight" stay at the Capital Hilton was a good one.
