Anything is better than parking downtown and getting gouged.

Depending on how many people are in his family parking may be worth it for the convenience.

Unfortunately the Metro lots do fill up pretty early in the morning. Probably the biggest are Vienna and West Falls Church. Protip: The latter also has a UVA and Virginia Tech adult ed facility that has a sizable lot as well, you can probably use that too although it is a fair walk to the station.

Once in town you will be walking everywhere anyway. Capitol Bikeshare will rent bikes to you if you have helmets.
