Find 2-Star Hotels in Washington D.C.

This was my first trip to Washington, D.C. Because I snore quite loudly and didn't want to disturb other guests, I opted for a capsule-style room instead of a typical hostel. Although the space wasn't large, the amenities were excellent, and the privacy was great, making me feel very comfortable. The staff at the front desk were friendly and attentive, and they even offered a breakfast discount for guests – a very thoughtful touch. The hotel was conveniently located next to a subway and bus station. Whether you're traveling independently or staying for a short vacation, I highly recommend this accommodation – convenient and comfortable!

Only consider this place if you absolutely can't find anything better. The check-in system is incredibly complicated. It's all self-service based on instructions on the door, but nobody gets it right on the first try! You get stressed, the code doesn't work, something goes wrong. There are no keys; everything is done via your phone: you enter a code for the outer hostel door, then another code for the inner door, then a code to enter your room, then a code for your capsule, and finally a code for your locker. It's a nightmare. And when things don't work right away, or at all, it's incredibly frustrating. The location is good, yes, but there aren't many cafes, restaurants, or shops nearby. Finding food will be difficult. Our room had 10 female-only sleeping pods. Thank God nobody snored, but: someone came in at 11 PM, someone arrived from the airport at 1 AM to check in, someone else had a 5 AM train and needed to get to the station. People are constantly opening and closing suitcases, and the room feels like a revolving door. It's all very loud. The capsule doors open and close very, very loudly, and people talk inside them too. It's incredibly hard to sleep. If you're sensitive to noise, it's impossible. The bathrooms are quite clean; I can't complain, they're decent. The shower pressure is good, the hot water is good, and there were no queues. Yes, there's some hair lying around, but what do you expect with so many people? As mentioned in previous reviews, no breakfast is provided, even though it's listed. There's a kitchen with all the utensils, and that's it. If you want, you can buy groceries and cook. There's a hot/cold water dispenser, salt/sugar, and spices. That's all. There's a laundry service for $10. Hairdryers, irons, and ironing boards are free. The Wi-Fi is good everywhere. The hostel has 3 floors, and if your room is on the 3rd floor, like mine was, lugging a heavy suitcase up those high stairs is quite an experience. In short, if you're really pinching pennies for 1-2 nights, it might be an option, but it's better to pay a bit more and find something with a private room, even if it has a shared bathroom/toilet on the floor. At least you'll be sleeping alone in your room.

Great hostel! Very clean! The restrooms and showers are in good condition and always accessible. The common areas—the lobby, the kitchen, and an outdoor terrace—are cozy. My roommates were polite and quiet. I met some nice people, many interesting people from all over the world. It's close to the main attractions. It was a convenient metro ride from Dulles Airport. The train station is also relatively close. Breakfast was included in the price. It was delicious—fresh pancakes with blueberries or chocolate, coffee, and tea. The beds were okay, quite comfortable. Thank you.

It is pretty good location and actually the bed sheet and towel are clean but the hotel itself very old lack of maintenance. The staffs actually most pretty friendly. Good to explore dc for this price is fair enough

Clean and tidy, but the hardware facilities are too old, there are many restaurants and Wal-Mart around, there are several gas stations are much cheaper than the city, the price is not bad for self-driving tour
