David Beckham landed stateside last month to a lot of fan fare and we're not just talking about his wife Posh's reality show.

Nope, in Los Angeles, his new team the Galaxy threw a huge welcoming event, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes threw a 600-person party full of A-list celebs, and paparazzi has been stalking Becks on his every move. We now have learned the man prefers Coffee Bean to Starbucks.

And all this, without Becks even playing a full game. The soccer star has been sidelined with an ankle injury. Nevertheless, he's been traveling with the team and today, they are in Washington, D.C. where Becks hopes to play in tonight's gams.

Oh but if only Tom and Katie could see him now. Word has it that since he is traveling with the team and since the MLS players don't really stay in fancy hotels, Becks is staying in the DoubleTree Crystal City. A tipster from D.C. writes:

This morning on the radio someone said they met David Beckham as he came out of the Double Tree hotel in Crystal City.

Reliable Source in the Washington Post and all the other news sources are keeping tabs on him - Mortons for dinner 2 nights ago, Crystal City coffee shops, stores and cafes in Georgetown - all over the place.

Crystal City is actually not in D.C. proper but in Virginia just south of downtown D.C. Yet this DoubleTree property can't be all that bad if it has a revolving SkyDome Lounge, no?
