“Well located and cheap stay in DC.”

The pillows! Saw a lot of complaints before booking and I agree with them now, plastic pillows are noisy, and you lose the cover in the middle of the night. Suggest them to change to have a better night of sleep
A cheap option to stay in DC in case you don't mind sharing the room. The hostel is very complete, has all the things you will need, like charging close to the bed, lockers, a simple breakfast, and daily activities. John from the breakfast staff is very kind and helpful too. The hostel is really well located, is 20 min walk from National mall and 2 bus stops from Dupont Circle.

Air conditioning was very noisy and it was not possible to control it from the rooms. One of the receptionists seemed to have some kind of grudge on us, for some reason we were not aware of. We asked nicely for some soap for the washing machine, since the dispenser took our money twice without dispensing - and that was the only interaction we had with him, before he started replying us, as if we annoyed him (and he talked very nicely to everyone else, so it was a bit unpleasant).
Walking distance to all the places you wanna see as a tourist. Fair price - you get what you pay for. Good (free) events. Cheap laundry service.

The structure of the building/hostel isn't exactly friendly to 'social spaces'. The beds are extra squeaky, every time someone would try to get up, the whole room woke up.
Great location, walking distance to the monuments. Super friendly staff, I received a smile every time I went out/came back :)

Bath water is so small and not hot. Bed is not entirely clean as there are a few hairs left on it. But they do provide a clean sheet so I slept on the clean sheet and that is fine.
Very well organized. There is quiet hours so bring ear buds and you will sleep just fine. I did not expect hostel experience to be so comfortable.
