Clean place, affordable in a safe neighborhood with a free parking spot (fit an SUV) Toaster, coffee machine and hairdryer available. Bed was comfortable. Closed to some major places to visit (30min) I recommend for a one or 2 nights stay! Host was super responsive and welcoming!

I had a wonderful stay. Can't comment on staff because there aren't any, which was fine with me. I loved the self check-in process, just get your code and walk up to your room. No need to remember your room card either as it was a code. I was at the very top of the building, the only room there is up there. Wasn't happy to see there was a floor of stairs to walk with my big bag, but but was totally worth it. The area is massive (probably too big for just me!). Lounge and kitchen in one space, then bedroom with huge bed, and then the large bathroom with shower. The place had everything you needed - even a white noise machine to block out city noise. I had a lovely terrace, and if you looked out to the left you could see the Washington Monument. The location is in the most gorgeous area, Georgetown. Flower lined street and English-style shops and houses. A very good stay in Washington and would definitely stay again if I ever go back.

this location is perfect for family, a lot of restaurants and bars plus a great view of the pier and yatch club. I heard from locals the wharf is the new location where they go and hangouts. I highly recommend Hyatt House.

This place is exactly what you would expect from the title, a cheap place to stay in a good location. If you're not really fussed with comfort or luxury, and just want an affordable place (which is exactly what I wanted) close to everything you want to see in Washington, but having a private room rather than sharing in a dorm, this place is perfect. It's old and quite run down, but the room was clean, which is the important thing.

The hosts were very friendly and the room was very clean! The location was ideal and I love the colors in the rooms and how many amenities there were - if we were staying longer, we definitely would have tried more. Very close to food places and a pretty quick walk to the monuments. Would stay again!
