This can be considered a benefit or a deterrent on how you look at it. If you are exiting a train, it's easy flow to the exit. If you are entering a train, you can only go so far down the platform safely before being in someone else's way. The escalator situation here confuses me. It seems like they were meant to be helpful in the platform situation but I always end up being in the opposite direction from where I need to be. Exiting out onto the street was a bit of a mess as well. Everyone seems to filter to the one side that takes you into the downtown area. Everyone seems to have the same thought here, I'm entitled to the nearest gate even though I see you clearly standing there about to use it. It is a very well used station and I can see why with the connection to the bus bays. But until they are done doing whatever update there is, it's just not the best right now.

There's quite a bit of construction going on in the area, which isn't surprising, though it can make navigation a bit confusing from the outside. A lot of elements of this metro seem upgraded compared to others, and it's definitely way larger than it was back in the day. There's a huge bus area, and you can even catch the MARC. The escalators, core of the station itself, and platform are pretty straightforward. I haven't been in the metro during the peak of rush hour, so I can't speak on what that experience is like. But I imagine it's no different than everywhere else. You can only catch the Red line here, so read the maps so you know where to catch the other lines if necessary.

From there, you are located near the National Mall, Smithsonian Museums, White House, Washington, Jefferson and Lincoln monuments. Also, near the WW II and the Vietnam Wall memorials. The station is equipped for ADA via elevator near the main entrance and has ramps to the platforms. The elevator may have enough room for 4-5 people or 1 ADA Wheel or electric chair and two others. The trains are nice and clean. Not like other stations in other cities. Price is comparable to other cities dreaming from $2.50 -$6.75 depending the time and stop you are heading too. Use your phone, CC, or Smartcard you can purchase from the Metro. Also, you can plan your trip, purchase and schedules from their website @ https://wmata.com I highly recommend to use the site. Epic escalators! They are about 100' -150' deep before you get to the kiosk stations. Have a fun trip!

Ok, I'm finally getting around to reviewing Metro stations. This is a deep station like many on…read morethis end of the Red Line. The platforms are pretty run of the mill Metro platforms. Normally it's pretty clean. Once you take the long-ish escalator ride up away from the tracks, you end up in a covered area where the buses are. This area has a tiny Dunkin Donuts if you need a snack or coffee. As you head to the next set of escalators, there is a water feature (not quite a waterfall) that comes down into the station area from the surface. Nice to have a natural sounds in a very urban area. Once you get up onto the surface, you're at the corner of Old Georgetown Rd and Wisconsin Ave near several hotels and a Starbucks (in case Dunks wasn't your cup of tea). Pretty central to a of businesses and restaurants. All in all, this station is convenient and central to downtown Bethesda.

A little trivia: Wheaton Metro Station has the longest subway escalator in the Western Hemisphere…read more(and in the US). The escalator is 230 feet long, with a vertical rise of 115 feet. For the most part, Wheaton's Metro Station is pretty decent (relative to living in NYC for a couple of decades). With access to the red line (obviously) and a large number of DC Metro and Montgomery County bus lines, I guess this could be considered a major transportation hub. This metro station has direct access to various shops (e.g, Westfield Mall), restaurants, and bars. I will recommend being careful because Georgia Avenue can be a bit of a mess for pedestrians. Compared to other metro stations in the DMV area, I have not noticed a large transient population; however, it can get a little sketchy at night. If you are new to the area, it might be a bit confusing to get the hang of the MANY bus bays, but you will get the hang of it in no time. If you have physical issues with using steep ramps escalators, elevators are located across the street from the main entrance.

Outdoors it also means there's not the bad smell. It overall seems pretty clean. Places to eat are close to it. The area is residential mostly but safe there.
