Looking for a capsule hotel?
Developed in Japan, these cheap “pod” hotels are a novelty for any traveler. With rows of small single bed enclosed capsules, accommodations are basic and intended to be overnight. There's separate storage for luggage and gender-separate communal bathrooms. Some capsule hotels also have a sentō – a Japanese bath house, usually for male guests only.

    Great location, close to cafés and convenient metro stops, and within walking distance of the White House and many museums. Staff were also super friendly and helpful.

    Our stay in DC was fantastic, even if it was just for one night. The accommodation provided exactly what we needed: comfort, convenience, and a perfect location. The room was clean, well-appointed, and had all the amenities we required for a short stay. The staff was friendly and efficient, ensuring our check-in and check-out processes were smooth and hassle-free. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience for our brief visit to the city. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a convenient and pleasant overnight stay in Washington, DC.

    Super convenient to Union Station if you are travelling to DC by bus or train and planning to use public transport like the metro and DC Circulator ($1 fares) National monuments and museums, capitol hill etc. are a short walk away (although hard work in a heatwave!) Ice and water station was a lifesaver! Staff are helpful and friendly The mood lights are a nice touch. The rooms are well designed, clean and well maintained

    I booked the capsule room for my three day trip to DC. Was not sure what to expect but was very pleased to stay in this hostel. Capsule type beds are very interesting concept and give you a good privacy compared to a typical bunk bed. All check in is very simple using a mobile application, even check out was automated. And staff is very friendly and helpful. Love mu stay in this hostel.

    Snazzy, stylish, and budget-friendly hotel in Dupont. It's not right in the center of the action but it was a short and cheap Uber ride to main areas, and the price is so good that it far outweighed the additional Ubers. They also issue $25 of credit to spend at their incredible cocktail bar to offset DC's annoying room taxes!

    - Pods are quite a cool and convenient concept, they do look very modern. - Pretty comfortable bed & nice bedding provided. - Clean restrooms. - Nice & lively location with lots of Bars, Clubs and Restaurants around. Metro close-by. Still quite central and not far from city center. - Friendly staff! - Great coffee downstairs! - Check-in and digital key with own App, but that works pretty good. Interesting! Overall, I would rate my stay a 6,5 out of 10 (rounded up to 7)

    Very friendly staff, and the stay was value for money. The capsule was clean and comfortable enough. Laundromat in the basement floor was only $5 for total including detergent, dryer and softer! The subway station was close from hostel and buses running on 14th St.(Just 1 blocks away) was also convenient way to National Mall.
