Having stayed at several different capsule hotels in Japan, I was excited to see something similar being offered here. Hotels in DC are not cheap so this was perfect in terms of providing an affordable yet comfortable place to stay. Overall I was not disappointed and was happy with my visit. The staff were very friendly upon check-in and the room (while still somewhat under construction) was more than adequate (my biggest issue with the capsules in Japan were the flimsy mattresses; no such issue here). Ear plugs are recommended (and provided) if you’re a light sleeper; I was in the upper bunk which was fine for me. Lockers provided secure storage and everything is conveniently managed from an app on your phone (which is a step up from Japan).

The property was in the process of renovating. Even with construction going on, it was still a beautiful place to stay. The modern amenities are more in line with a chic 5-star hotel than a stereotypical hostel. The stay included breakfast which was cooked to order...amazing!

It's a new hostel so you can't expect everything is well ready. There were some small problems at the beginning but the staff was nice and tried to resolved them. The breakfast was good and sometimes it had Friday beer movie night. The location is perfect. Will highly recommend it.

Everything was very nice, but I would like to see strict regulations regarding guests' conduct. Rules of conduct need to be printed and posted everywhere. Some people just have no clue and don't respect others' needs. Both nights I was there, I couldn't sleep because people were making so much noise.

The staff was super friendly and supportive. Fresh pancakes are made every morning. The sleeping pods were something new for me and I liked it. It seemed like not all of them were fully built, as the curtains weren't installed yet, but that might be just a questions of a couple more days, providing you with a bit more privacy. The location worked out superb for me. China town is just across the sreeet, offering plenty of food options. The main seights are still in walking distance.

I had a really wonderful time staying here! There was some initial difficulty with my check-in, but everyone was on it immediately and it was quickly resolved. The facilities are clean and comfortable. As a newer business, the building is still undergoing some upgrades, but in the meantime everything is more than functional. What puts this place over the top in my view is the friendliness of the staff - particularly Jim, the property manager. The atmosphere is warm and homey. The location is very close to the Capitol Mall, Smithsonian museums and other attractions. What isn't close by is easily accessible by using DC's extremely safe, intuitive and user friendly public transportation system. I would definitely stay here again!
