MGM National Harbor is technically right on the border of DC, but that part of DC isn't one where you would want to stay (for interest or safety).
It would be about 10 miles, or an hour via public transit from the downtown Washington area.
It is actually very close to the interesting and nice touristy area of old town Alexandria, but it's across a very long bridge. There is a bus which would take about 15 minutes from the King Street-Old Town metro station, but that's either a bus ride or a long walk from the main part of old town, along the river. There is also a ferry, but that probably wouldn't go very often and I don't know anything about it.
