The airport is actually Marshall Baltimore-Washington International (BWI) and is located about half-way between the two cities. Many folks coming to Washington, DC fly into BWI, particularly because it has many discount flights. To get from BWI into DC you have several options. Unless you're on an expense account, I would not use a cab, which will be quite expensive. Instead, I'd take the free shuttle bus from the airport to the BWI train station, from where you can take either Amtrak or the MARC commuter train into Washington Union Station, in downtown DC. From there, you can more cheaply take a cab to your hotel, or if your hotel is near a Metro station, you can take the Metro subway. There are other ways of doing it, including a bus that will connect you from the airport to the Metro subway system, but the Amtrak or MARC connection is the most popular.
