Summary: "Very informative travel guide"

At first, I did not like this travel guide because I thought it had way to much information for my purposes. The font is small and there are not as many pictures as I was hoping for. At the same time, I had also purchased DK's Eyewitness Travel Guide, which I liked much better for the brilliant photos and layout of the book. But as I went back and forth between the two, I started to like Fodor's more and more because it has recommendations on everything, like places to stay and eat, including pros/cons of all the hotels in the DC area. I actually found that it has been more useful for planning my trip than DK's Eyewitness Travel Guide. In the end, I decided to keep both books, as I feel that they each have strong and weak points that balance each other out. The only problem I've found with Fodor's is that the tearaway map included in the back of the book only goes as far north as Dupont Circle, which is kind of a bummer for us because we'll be in that area. But it's certainly not a deal breaker. I highly recommend this travel guide for those who want suggestions and detailed information on restaurants, hotels, and of course, the sights to see.

Summary: "All you will need"

I purchased this and two others--one specifically on what to do with children--and I must say that I will send the other two back. This book is complete with every possible bit of information that you could need for planning your trip to DC.
