La Maison Beauregard

La Maison Beauregard (French for The Beautiful House) is located in Georgetown east in Washington, D.C., at the intersection of Blanchard Blvd and Donoghue Drive.

Background
An upper class hotel before the war, the centuries of neglect were not kind to the Maison. Although the external shell held up well, the interior is devastated. The collapse and accumulation of rubble render everything, except for the lobby, inaccessible.

Layout
The outside walls of the building have some holes in them revealing some broken cement floors. The one directly up from the entrance is located on floors four and five and have been mostly filled with rubble and debris. The other opening in the building is located to the right and is reveals floors three and four. The sign has remained in very good condition compared to the decorative designing above the sign which is missing pieces of stone. There is an outer section behind some decorative railing that contains some tables and chairs with some nearby trash cans. The front pillar to the left of the entrance has fallen and is broken in two.

The interior of the building near the entrance has very damaged wallpaper and the floors are shattered. The two decorative chairs are in very good condition in contrast to the rest of the room. To the left of the entrance is a desk with a cash register and a chair, this could be a reception desk where someone one sat in the chair and drank beer with the mug found on the ground near the chair from the bottle found on the desk. The main room has a landslide of debris, junks, and furniture such as a bed and a couch. The only place where this could have come from is the blocked of doors at the top of the landslide. There is a bar to the right of the area at the top of the landslide with a shelf where drinks were once kept next to a refrigerator. There is also a flickering Nuka-Cola sign at the end of the counter. To the left of the landslide area on the top floor is also a pool table with two white pool balls. The rest of the building is blocked off by rubble making the accessible interior very small.

Inhabitants
There are some leveled super mutants inside, and two out in the courtyard ready to greet you. They are mostly equipped with heavy weapons such as miniguns and missile launchers.

If you have Broken Steel, there is a possibility that two super mutant overlords will be inside the building near the entrance if you are a high level, so be prepared.

Notable loot

 * On an upstairs pool table there is a mini nuke, a Stealth Boy and a key-locked suitcase containing the all-nighter nightwear. Lag-Bolt has the key. Killing him, and looting his corpse will give you Lag-Bolt's shades and Lag-Bolt's combat armor. (It should be noted that the all-nighter nightwear and Lag-Bolt will only appear in the Broken Steel DLC).
 * On a shelf across from the upstairs pool table: a bottle of Nuka-Cola Quantum.
 * Behind a downstairs lobby desk on the floor is a U.S. Army: 30 Handy Flamethrower Recipes skill book next to several beers.
