Crystal City area - Crystal Gateway Marriott we just stayed there last week for 6 nights ($99 most nights - member rate).
Very easy access to the Metro (underground, brightly lit, and enclosed) and is located near to the lobby check-in. FYI - Auntie Anne's does close most days at 6. Philadelphia Mikes I believe closes at 2 or 3pm but they had decent sandwiches. The Marriott does have free shuttle service to Reagan that leaves every 20 minutes if you want to save a buck or two and don't want to take the metro.
I thought the service work for the Metro was mainly that it would be closing at 12 midnight instead of 3am? But with the announcements sort of hard to hear -- it definitely could be more major than that and the locals would definitely know more than me. I even asked the Metro worker if they were planning to fix the public announcement system so you could hear better, but he said he didn't know.
