Arlington, Virginia - Hotel (Crowne Plaza Washington National Airport)

Crowne Plaza, Washington National Airport (1480 Crystal Drive, Arlington, Virginia)

Level access from street. There is also parking available underground. The handicapped spots are right by the elevator (lift).

large lobby, level access to the bar/restaurant.

I stayed in a room on the 10th floor. Large room, plenty of space to move around. Sofa and coffee table in the room as well as a work desk. The workdesk was large, with a movable lower desk that fitted under it. Both were at a good height and could be comfortably used from a wheelchair. Socket in the desk light was easily accessible. Wired Internet, cable easily accessible from work desk.

TV controls were left by bed in easy reach. The A/C unit is under the window and the controls can be reached easily. The bed is a little high making transfers slightly difficult, but not a real problem.

Bathroom was a good size. The toilet was low. There was adequate room to position chair for a 90 degree transfer to the toilet. Sink had space for knees underneath. This room had a bath-tub. Water controls were easy to reach when in the bath. Shower rose is fixed to the wall and is high so the angle cannot be adjusted by a wheelie. There were no grab rails either by the toilet or in the bath. Towel racks were above the toilet and quite high although I could reach them from my chair.
