Transportation in Washington, DC

“Very clean and easy to navigate. There are many signs and google maps can also help you navigate the MTA. I was on a layover from a flight and decided to explore the city. I was able to get there on public transportation from the airport and get back before my flight with no issues.”

“This is the ClubAcela lounge for Amtrak in Union Station in Washington D.C. where you can relax before, after or during stops on before, after your choo-choo trip. There are others in Boston, NYC, Philly, etc. and each one is unique and this one checks all my boxes. We've been here sveral times over the years and we always appreciate the service, comfort and amenities here. My honey was just there a few days ago, but my last layover was a few months ago. There was one trip when my sweetheart wasn't feeling well and she was able to stretch out on a couch which was a godsend. Coffee, tea, water, soft drinks and snacks are complimentary and there's lots of comfy chairs and couches throughout. I appreciate the ability to check in your bags so venturing out into the station is made easy. ClubAcela is available to Amtrak customers traveling in First Class or sleeping car accommodations, Single-Day Pass holders, Select Plus and Select Executive members can bring immediate family members traveling together, or one, non-family guest. Bottom line: It's convenienly located near the platforms so you can relax and enjoy the comfortable, quiet lounge seating, complimentary non-alcoholic beverages, snacks and free WiFi, it's a great place to chill between trains, recommended!!”

“It's nice to have the bus as a transportation option between NYC and D.C., however, the new location at 11th Avenue in Manhattan is quite the walk from Penn Station - a major transit area which also served as Bolt Bus' original location. The walk from Penn to the Bolt stop on W.36th and 11th takes 30 minutes at a steady pace. I hope this helps!Bolt Bus was much cleaner 3 years ago. It appears their standards have lowered.”
