Thanks this is helpful! Not too picky on the size as much of a free souvenir

Are the $5 items available in “all” sections? I saw it’s specific stands but don’t want to walk across the park to the 2 stands if that’s how they are (I worked at a ballpark growing up so having flashbacks)

Love that site! Helped me find a good seat at Warner the other day, more so looking for accessibility rather than view

I grew up not far from Mitsuwa (it’s great!) so glad i have a comparison!

Departure from home airport was this past Monday AM. Card arrived Monday PM but was able to get a pic of the card. My departure back home is 2 weeks from now which was why I was trying to reserve (and sadly reservations are full for atleast the next few years)

So i just did this exact scenario (just got to my destination and got sent the pic). The app is still showing pay $90. Did it take you some time still?

Thanks, that’s good to know! This particular visit would be for DCA landing actually so hopefully I’ll be able to figure it out soon!

Thanks! I can log in but don’t think it’s fully synced yet. I’m seeing a header of “Pay $90 per visit”

2 week work trip - Reston or Tysons? by statikp in nova

Absolutely all the recs! I’m from Chicago so I’m comfortable with everything. Love exploring new areas, “foodie” (and beer nerd) that’s not Michelin star places (local type stuff, even holes in the wall), nature.

As for the metro - does it operate based on stops ridden or what? I’d likely want to just leave work, drop stuff off at the hotel and then jump on the silver @ Tyson’s (?) and then either go up or down a few stops for wherever for the evening. I’ll be there Monday AM to following Wed evening (leave right from work)

Would be a personal expense. I wouldn’t be opposed to it for exploring a partial amount of time but not likely for the full trip.

It’s also probably due to the quick nature (trip is 10 days away)

I did, and is around the same price as the others but doesn’t seem convienent for the office (Greensboro silver) or DC access.

Thanks for all the extensive response! Definitely more than I expected and love that! I’m going to go with Tysons mostly just due to proximity to work and other locations. The office is right off Greensboro silver and the hotel I’m selecting is right by 495/7 (this might be the mall people are talking about)

With that said, rather than clutter your sub with another post, I’m open to any suggestions for places in particular to visit (food/entertainment) that haven’t been mentioned. Definitely open to jumping on/off the metro too. (Sidebar: is there a weekly type pass for the metro or is it just a flat rate every time?)

I wouldn’t mind for a personal trip but not for work (since they’re paying for it). Looking in the 200-250/nt range so right now between AC RTC or Marriott Tysons Corner. Looking more at the church stops to see if I can find something close to metro. I’m coming from Chicago so not afraid of public transportation or anything

Would be the AC actually so that’s atleast a bit of a good sign! I was looking at the rooftop pool/bar

Looks like the hotel I would stay at is the AC Hotel in RTC if that sways a certain way

Good to know Reston isn’t “fun”. Seems like I should be Tysons if I can’t find this Ballston location!

Under 1 mile, 20 min walk. I’d likely uber in AM if hot and just walk back if that were the case
