though it’s a little odd not having a traditional front desk, this arrangement works well - the staff maintained a presence via texting and I always had what I needed - I recommend this hotel

Richard, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very affordable for students and short term visitors of DC. Small rooms but clean and comfortable. Appreciate the bathroom with the room. Really great staff, quick communication without any problems. Close to the Dupont Circle metro or bus and plenty of restaurants and shops in walking distance. Easy check in. Definitely coming back once in DC again.

Jeffrey Alan-Hipke, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very clean, comfortable, and modern decor. It was a great deal, very reasonable price for DC. It could use more luggage storage space, but manager is working on that and was very helpful to offer me alternatives. Highly recommended.
Gary, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location to restaurants, metro and especially our son. Good communication , good and very responsive for off site personnel. Clean yet simple rooms . That’s all we needed as we were there to see DC and our son. There only to sleep and bed was comfortable
Audrey, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the excellent service during my stay. The staff were friendly and professional, and I want to give special thanks to Essam for his exceptional help. It is rare to find someone so dedicated and kind. His dedication truly enhanced my experience. Highly recommended this hotel— great service makes all the difference
Cameron, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Pleasantly surprised.

Better than expected. Room 508 is spacious and comfortable.
Daryl, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very good location for restaurants in a walking distance. Overall safe. I was lucky to see a staff physically present there when I checked-in. I was allowed to check in 2 hours before the check-in time. However, not having any physical staff on site create trouble for residents. I saw people waiting for hours to get a respond from the hotel staff through text message. If you want to replace labor by technology that's perfectly fine. But to operate that mode, you should have service available through phone or text or by any Apps. Emergency alarm was ringing on and residents were gathering at the lobby waiting for hours at night in response to the alarm but no on-site staff to address the issue!
Mohammad Mainul, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location and luxury accommodation
Steven, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

I came to town for two nights but spent most of my time outside of the property. This was a no-frills stay and to be honest not many complaints just comments. My room was super cozy. Had things I needed like soap, iron, towels, tv. My room did have a “surprise” under the bed so cleaning was not as thorough. The bathroom was fine but the shower had clear wear and tear. The bed was SUPER comfy. I would stay here again honestly for any solo/couple travels.
Matthew, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Distinctly fine. The property was clean and well placed but the automated check in and lack of human presence on site feel slightly disturbing. Note to those staying in at FOUND. Make sure you fill in your check in information days prior to arriving. Doing it upon arrival is a total hassle, especially if you you got in late and don't have data on your phone to contact the information team.
John, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I really liked how quiet it was snd how effortlessly it was to check in & check out. Smooth. Very hospitable they took my bag to my room & found the room to be clean and had everything I needed…a coffee maker. I was able to walk to the National Mall without a problem, it’s pretty much a straight walk on NW 16th Street, saving me money. If I got hungry Uber eats to the rescue. I do like the fact they checked if everything was good and if I needed anything via email. Very nice staff though I only met one gentleman but he was very nice & helpful. I really enjoyed my stay. Definitely recommend it.
Laudelina, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Pre-Check in Communication Bad, room fine

The hotel was fine. Great location. Clean. Check was fine. Small room and bath in the basement. Perfectly fine budget accommodations. Getting in touch with the property before arrival was nearly impossible. Phone on website rang busy. No one answered email.
