Bomb At Mayflower Hotel?
BREAKING
The Mayflower Hotel in DC has been evacuated because of what appears to be a bomb in the basement. The object in question has, according to news reports, been examined and they are treating it as a credible bomb.
The Mayflower is located just a few blocks from the White House, DuPont Circle, and a large number of organizational headquarters and embassies. I've stayed there (mixed review) because of the location.
UPDATE: Fox is now reporting it is a hoax bomb, something made to look like a bomb. Bad joke, trying to flush a target, or a test of responses???

I almost stayed there last time I was in DC. Someone gave it mixed reviews, so we stayed elsewhere. The place we stayed was really nice... but I was up until 2AM fascinated by watching hookers turn tricks on the street...I could see them from my 5th floor window.
Never in my life had I seen nightlife. Holy crap.
