The Air and Space Museum is a marvelous place to visit too. There are a ton of
museums and monuments within walking(1) distance of the Mall, right from the
metro.
As for hotels, there's really no such thing as a "cheap" hotel in the Arlington
area. Most people stay at the Hilton. Room with your favorite three or four
other lugnetters and the rate gets pretty reasonable.

(1) my wife and I thought that we would walk from the Mall to the Jefferson
Memorial. It's doable, but something on the order of 2 miles away. Just
because you can see from one monument to the other doesn't mean that you should
walk to them :)
