81%  "The Hilltop Hostel is loacated in the Takoma quarter in the nothern part of Washington close to Spring Hill. But the infrastructure is perfect because the metro station is just fifty meters away -- you can get downtown via the Red Line Metro in just thirteen minutes. The metro operates from 5 a.m. until 3 a.m. so you can even have fun downtown and get back to the hostel very late. There is...
75%  "HI - Washington, D.C. boasts both a good location and good atmosphere. The second after you enter the hall, you know they’ve been doing it for ages. Everything is very well organized and prepared for serving as many backpackers as possible. So the place is big and crowded and anonymous, however the staff is very nice and helpful. They organize a a daily program you can join to explore...
75% "There are rooms with 4 bunks, 6 bunks, and 8 bunks. There are female-only, male-only, and co-ed bunks. The bunks are assigned based on a first-come first-serve basis. All of our clients have access to shared kitchens and a full bathroom on every floor. The bunk beds are a twin-size bed. Everybody receives a locker about the size of a large microwave for their personal belongings. You will be...
73%  "Don't Settle for this Hostel - The website is terribly misleading. There is no air conditioning and very few rooms have lockers for guests. The staff is often times rude and derogatory, treating their guests like children. The atmosphere is decent when it's not swelteringly hot inside the house. There are no meals provided "once a week." Food that is stored in the refrigerator is routinely...
71% "Interning or moving to Washington DC? Convenient to public transportation and with affordable monthly rates, this is the perfect housing alternative for international students and interns in any of the cities we service! **Please note the remaining balance of your reservation is charged within 48 hours after your initial booking** WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT? The biggest difference is our...
81% "Walking along the E Capitol Street SE, you can find many exquisite, colorful houses, and William Penn House is one of them -- peaceful and quiet. From the house, it's about fifteen minutes' walk to the back of the Capitol Building, and another five minutes to the front of it. However, the transportation is not so convenient, as the nearest metro station is about five blocks away. (the blocks...
66%  "Although it is located in D.C.'s less desirable (for safety) Northeast quadrant, the Capitol City Hostel offers an much cheaper alternative than others in the U.S. Capitol. For safety reasons, there is no big hostel sign letting everyone know that this particular rowhouse (townhouse) is for tourists and backpackers. You can only identify it by the house number and a small sign notice beside...

76% "We are located near 15th St., NW & Columbia Road close to Metro and shopping. We are a new facility focused on providing safe, comfortable, and affordable short term housing solutions.

71% "About Laura's House A quiet night's rest for the professional or student who is traveling, Laura's House, our professionals' house and hostel, offers an independent, clean and private atmosphere. All rooms come standard with a full or queen sized bed, private work space, private bathroom, hi-speed internet, wall to wall carpet and over sized historic windows. Personal items can be secured in...

55%  "Perfect for Students - I think most of the complaints on here are over exaggerated. Obviously this is a hostel and not a hotel so don't come with expectations of it being like a hotel. If that's what you want, go pay for one. That's not to say that this place isn't clean or friendly -- it definitely is better than college dorms. The pictures of the bathrooms are outdated. I was just in DC this...

Washington, DC Travel Tips & Suggestions

Comment by Anonymous
The monuments are beautiful at night! Also, during the summer, check out the internationally focused fairs by the National Art Museum/on the National Mall. There was one for Israel and one for the Philippines while I was there and they had concerts and delicious, authentic cuisine! There are jazz nights on the National Archives too -- all free -- and the sangria you can buy there is delicious.

If you are looking for a cheap vacation, this is it! All the museums, monuments, and a great zoo -- totally free. You can find cheap good eats everywhere and for the cost of a day pass on the Metro or a great pair of walking shoes you can get everywhere!
