I took a female only room and it was really good. But the only problem is there was no female only restroom. It was a very uncomfortable to use a shared restroom.
They are fraud.We booked for 3 people. They gave us bed for 3 people
when we returned after roaming dc we saw that in our seat there was another people and actually they were sold the seat to that guy also. We didn't find any associated authority to inform it. Please solve the issue.
The location was fiting for a vacation syle and with in walking distances of were i was working. The fact that mainly the homeless were constanly around made things more difficult granted those kind of places are more designed for students. However utalizing those all over the contry would help with the issues of the homelessness. I would recommend that staf keep up the good work.

You get what you pay for.. LITERALLY.
Lady who lives there and “works” there was rude and lied on me and another guest. Another Lady almost set the hostel on fire cooking. No hand soap in bathrooms some days.
What stay,
No one answered the door.
No one answered the phone.
Ones at the Eithiopian restaurant next door told me they had not seen the people running the hostel.
Im glad i took the option of paying at site.
I even got the exact amount of funds at the amtrack station $32.16 to keep things very professional.
They chose not to be professional.
I just had a hostel closed down in Dubai.
Due to the unprofessionalism by the owner.
I let hostelworld offices on Europe know this location is very bias and racist.
She verbally told me twice i dont like your kind.
I dont use frofantity when talking.
I dont talk loud when speaking.
My fiancee says im a true Gentelman.
So what caused this owner not want to communicate with me.
I was 12 minutes early.
I stayed 10 minutes past 2 pm.
I then sat in the eithiopean restaurant
And book a room at the hilton.
Hey 5 minutes im booked at the hilton.
Hey they know how to communicate.
Things are great too.
As for this hostel.
Call them and ask them.
Do they want to be in the hostel business.
Renting For all people.not certain people.
Because right now i see a place
That may or may not want
To rent to certain specific races.
Of course they,ll deny it.
They always do.

OK, but hard to find
The place was REALLY hard to find. It's not very visible from the street. My roommates were a bit odd, but it was a bed for a cheap price and overall fine. Good location. Near the Metro.

Simple and easy
Quiet place to get some rest at an affordable price in DC.
Booked, went at about 10p because that’s just the time I arrived to DC, their office was closed so I couldn’t stay. I had to find another place last minute, it was pretty difficult. Overall bad experience
I made the best of the stay and ignored a lot, but I hope improvements are made with the cleanliness. Also, I was unfairly banned based on a lie.

This place was rather noisy. The rooms are very small, locked and with minimal air flow--very moist. It's next to a 7-11 on a somewhat sketchy patch of road.
