Impressed”

HRH was my very first hostel experience and was so good that I suddenly feel the world of travel possibilities before me—if every hostel is as picturesque, friendly, comfortable, and affordable, then I will be one happy gal. They set the stakes high, though. I stayed in an 8 bed coed room with only four other people (all male). Felt safe and slept well. Keycard to get in room was nice. The bathroom adorable, and they even provided a towel ! The room was no fuss, clean, and minimalistic feeling. I really liked it, though I spent most of my time downstairs with the new friends I made, one of whom lives across the world and has already flown to visit me once. When I booked my stay there, I was going on reviews of no bedbugs and basic comfort and price and had absolutely no conception of how pleasant the people would be or the friendship that would forge between me and someone I otherwise never would have met. HRH was one of my best decisions and experiences in 2018. Thank you!

I stayed for 3 nights and the place was extremely clean and the staff was very friendly. I got the 6 beds room but I was lucky enough to have the whole room to myself for my entire stay. It was also very convenient that the room had a bathroom attached to it. The location, Adams Morgan, is an amazing area. There are many famous local shops and its close to a lot of attractions in DC. I would totally recommend just walking around because the buildings are so pretty and the neighbourhood is very aesthetic!

Great place to stay in DC”

I've stayed here a couple times on sightseeing trips to DC. Staff and guests are always lovely, it's on a busy street with a ton of good eating. I would NOT bring a car as there is very limited parking and traffic sucks. If you have a military ID, I would park at JB Anacostia and Lyft around the city.

Spotlessly clean, plenty of bathrooms (including several private ones), and friendly and informative staff make this place an absolute steal in Adams Morgan and in D.C. The environment the hostel creates will lead to meeting awesome fellow travelers and excellent conversation.
