[Scan-DC] Greenbrier Hotel

[Blake Bowers]

If you are looking for a comfort inn, or a super 8,
then yes, the rates at the Greenbrier are high.

But, if you are looking for a vacation experience,
the Greenbrier is very affordable.

They are not in competition with the likes of a
super 8.  Sort of like the difference between a Yugo
and a Lamborghiani - someone who just wants basic
transportation is going with the Yugo.

Tours are available of the underground, on a daily
basis, available to the general public and to registered
guests.  Private tours can also be arranged.

The "State Suite" is a fantastic stay.
