Pros:

Easy staffless check in process. Clean capsules. Not particularly loud considering the location.

Cons:

While location in the main party area of DC can be a huge plus, it can also be a bit unnerving arriving at the hostel Friday or Saturday night, bags and all.

A pleasant time at the U Street
Pros:

I had a very pleasant time there. The price was fantastic it was pretty much half the price of a normal hotel

Cons:

Only thing I would say I didn't like was that my room was right across from the other hostel rooms. But to be fair, that was my fault for getting the last room And not booking sooner in advance

Great location, not worth what you pay for
Pros:

The location is great, easily accessible by metro.

Cons:

No on-site reception, all is at the app, except for the access code to the capsule which somehow is sent separately, the off-site reception is only reachable until 10 pm. The capsules are short and narrow, wooden interior leads to a very loud experience when moving.
