  Directions:  A map of Crystal City and directions by car & Metro are here

  Crystal City can be a bit confusing; the HI is on the west side of US 1, while most of Crystal City is on the east side.  Highly recommend that you download and print this PDF (LINK ABOVE) and use it to get to the HI.  Map and directions are two pages, and they will print normally.

  On the West side of US 1, just past the McDonalds.  You can also use S. Eads St to reach the HI for parking inside the hotel garage.
