Great station…read more Parking is located on the street or in a local parking garage that is easy to get to the station. I think the parking garage is free on the weekends. The station waiting area can be cold. Some people wait above, others below behind walls to protect themselves from the elements. The line used is the silver line to get into other various stations. The location of this station is good for the Dulles Airport. There is also a lot around this station, like restaurants, bars, businesses etc. There is some shopping nearby including a CVS. The station was very clean. The employees I came in contact with were so helpful to others. I ended up buying an all days pass for $13.50, and was charged a small fee for the card. I think I spent just under $16.

I got off here to go to attend a Yelp event at the town center. Luckily, the train I was on was a newer one; however, the one I rode back on was an older train. The employee I went up to was really nice when directing me on which way to go. One thing to note: this station closes earlier than most of the stations, most likely because it doesn't have a lot of foot traffic.

The cost is $7 each way. Drop off in front. However plan ahead like for any trip, get here at least 2 hours early in case of traffic. And don't be a seat hog. Put your luggage in the luggage compartments. Your luggage shouldn't be rolling down the aisles, hitting my feet.

Quick and convenient sums it up most of the time. This is an express bus with 4 total stops: Dulles…read moreAirport, Herndon-Monroe Park and Ride, Rosslyn Metro Station, and L'Enfant Plaza Station. The two metro stops are transfer points to other lines. Note that the pick up and drop off locations at L'Enfant are different. Depending on traffic, the trip can be from 30-60 minutes. Other than not having many stops, this bus is able to take Dulles Toll Road in the express lane. While this is an express bus to Dulles, it is essentially a commuter bus. This, there really isn't a place to put your luggage like the airport buses. If you intend to take the bus to catch a flight, plan accordingly. If major accidents/inclement weather occurs or its rush hour, the arrival time of the bus may vary. If there are people waiting, then the bus operators do their best to fit everyone on board. However, this can lead to people standing for the commute until the last stop. If you are pretty short and the bus is packed, aim to stand near the doors where the poles are or hold on to the headrests of the seats. Otherwise it's painful to hold on to the overhead bars for so long. The fare is $7.50 via SmartTrip card (can be bought at any metro station) or exact change. There is no metro operated vehicle parking at the two metro stations. The parking at Herndon-Monroe is currently free, but I imagine that will change once the silver line station there opens up. Then it will be $4.95. Dulles Airport has its own paid parking. Note that WMATA is considering ending Bus 5a when the silver line metro station at Dulles Airport opens. This is still a proposal and not yet decided upon as of February 2020.

First of all it's a Metro station so there is only so much that can be said. However, this is one…read moreof the new Silver Line stations that we've all been waiting ages for, so it's worth some notes. First of all, multiple bathrooms that are easy to find. The stations in the District do have bathrooms but over the years they've for all practical purposes been shut for customer use. So having two or three bathrooms in a visible location and clean is a big plus. Hopefully the "clean" part is kept up. This location is also where the shuttle bus to the Smithsonian's Udvar-Hazy Air and Space Museum leaves from. Getting to the museum has always involved driving and paying $15 to park, or a long bus ride with potential traffic issues. This hopefully opens up the museum to those who might not otherwise have an opportunity to visit. There isn't much else around the station yet but given all the growth that sprung up around the older 1st phase stations of the Silver Line, that won't be the case for long.

Ive been riding Reston buses with my university for now four years…read more I can say with confidence that I DO NOT RECOMMEND any Reston buses for any group. The people are fine the drivers are friendly that's the only reason why I'm leaving 2 stars instead of one. There's always something wrong with the buses. Either it's broken WiFi, broken bathrooms, dirty floors, breaking down, or catching on fire. As I write this my group is dealing with a blown tire on one of the buses trying to come back from a trip. At minimum 1/3rd of all trips have had some failure that has resulted in severe delays and a bus being taken down. I wish they were isolated but over four years it's a trend. Edit on the course of this trip another bus died on the side of the road. Updating review to one star.

I am not sure if there is a single Yelp entry for the system, Capital Bikeshare. I write to explain…read moremy experience. It is positive to date. I recommend this. The background. I am in my late 50s. I do not live in Washington, D.C. My elderly father does though. So I am in and out all the time, checking up on him (he still lives on his own). I am experienced riding a bicycle in the city. I have owned an e bike (it stopped working, the Van Moof; I loved it when it ran, but build quality was an issue). I also rented regularly in San Francisco when I lived there, and do so intermittently in New York City where I reside now. I have had good experiences and bad, including an issue where part of a bike belonging to the defunct Uber system fell out in an intersection, and the customer service agent told me I was lucky I didn't die and offered me a $2 refund, which I thought was rather rude, prompting me to interact with the General Counsel's office to no avail -- moral of the story is you won't get much by complaining, even if you are in the right and quite polite. All told, I am confident I have taken at least three dozen rides, maybe four dozen rides, with at least three other companies, in two major metropolitan areas besides DC. I also support mass transit and alternative transit. I regularly ride the bus, and I am irked by people who assume I would not do that, because they are projecting their sense of privilege (it is apparent from their disdain they would not ride the bus) on me. I also run commute as much as I can, and I previously did that on a regular basis (three days a week, 4.5 miles, just one way; then MUNI back). That is not to brag about virtue. Don't trust anybody who touts their own morality. In any event, Capital Bikeshare seems to have worked out the problems with this service. They have lots of bikes. That have lots of locations (including one about a quarter mile from where we stay and another on the side of the train station where I need to go). They have an acceptable number of e bikes in the fleet. The maintenance is much better than pre-pandemic with their rivals. (I am opposed to the dockless networks. Those result in the inevitable problem of bikes scattered willy nilly on sidewalks and where they pose a hazard.) The annual fee is reasonable. I am planning three trips in the next two weeks, early in the morning before Metro starts running, to Union Station. If I do as I intend, the amount saved over a motor vehicle ride share will offset the cost. I figure at 4am, the traffic will not be a great hazard (though the drivers out will include a disproportionate number of people who, given the late/early hour, probably pose a risk).

Absolutely terrible experience with Capital Bikeshare…read more We returned the bike to a designated docking station, and I have proof of the return. Even so, Capital Bikeshare charged another account connected to the trip for a bike that had already been returned. The charge was eventually reversed, but only after we had to provide evidence and spend our time dealing with an issue that should never have happened. What's most frustrating is that their system failed to recognize the return, but we were the ones left to sort it out. We provided clear proof, yet still had to go back and forth with customer service over a charge that was made in error. A bike-sharing company should be able to tell when a bike has been properly returned. If the company's records don't match the customer's proof, the customer shouldn't be held responsible without a proper investigation. This was a frustrating experience and has made me think twice about using Capital Bikeshare again. Customers shouldn't have to repeatedly prove that they returned a bike when there's documentation showing that they did. If you use Capital Bikeshare, keep your screenshots, receipts, trip details, and any other proof of the return. You may need them.

A few Uber options are as follows: Uberx is the basic: warning though you might end up in a hoopty. Cracked windshields or a car thats been keyed by a jealous ex. UberBlack -luxury car UberSUV for a large party. UberXl is a step up from basic. I used this one recently. I rode in a nice Dodge Durango at a pool rate. So from Union Station to my destination.

I am alone in downtown Austin at 11PM. I had no choice but to book another Uber ride but now the price was $58.95. When I contacted Uber to ask for a refund of the difference or a voucher toward a future ride, it took me 10 days to get a response. That response said it's "not their policy" to reimburse the difference in fare. However, it IS their policy to charge me for a ride I contracted if I am the one who doesn't show up! Hmmm. I see this as a bait and switch scam. Not only was I inconvenienced and overcharged, I was put in a dangerous situation at 11PM in downtown Austin. Lyft is gaining a new customer!
