Holiday Inn Express: 1917 Bladensburg Rd NE, DC 20002, 202-266-9000, has shuttle to Convention Center (& see metro input); http://www.hiexpress.com/hotels/us/en/washington/wasny/hoteldetail

Metro Station next to convention center is "Mt Vernon Sq 7th St-Convention Center" (on green & yellow lines)

Metro Station closest to Howard is "Shaw-Howard U” (on green & yellow lines); leave metro station at "7th street/Georgia avenue" exit. Once on Georgia Avenue head north & walk 6 blocks; Make a right on Howard Place and walk up the hill. Go through iron gates to Carnegie Hall Building (about 15 min intense walk from stop). This is building 12 on the map found at the following link http://www.howard.edu/explore/map/

Could take taxi to Howard U, etc. as there has been crime in DC, even around college campuses: if walking, walk together, avoid displaying ipods, iphones, etc. & exercise common sense appropriate to large urban city

See the following Metro link for the station map: http://www.wmata.com/rail/maps/map.cfm

See the following Howard link for the station map plus information about walking (not much other than it is 6 blocks to main campus): http://www.howard.edu/parking/MetroMap.htm This is not a current map, the yellow line now extends to Fort Totten, so also stops at "Shaw-Howard U".
