HighRoad Washington DC

Nice and clean. Easy to find, right next to the bus stop, busses 90 and 96. Staff was polite and helpful. Would recommend.

I wanted to love this place! If I were in my 20's, I'm sure I would have but now that im in my 40s and have gotten used to staying in "real" hotels...this place just wasn't cutting it :-( It's in a beautiful building on the corner. Lots of restaurants that are walkable. The door to the building is always locked which is great. You need your key card to get in. Check-in was easy. FYI, everyone in your party that wants a key will need to provide ID. I booked Hotel room 305 (private 3rd floor walk-up). I knew going into it that it was going to be small and that it would require climbing a ladder to get up to 2 of the beds. I just wasn't quite prepared for just how small and just how steep the ladder would be! My 70 year old dad slept on the lower bed. My husband, my 9 year old son and I slept on the loft. Its VERY low up there! My poor husband (6ft) literally couldn't stand when he was up there! The ladder is a little scary. It only has a handle on both sides for the upper half and like I said its very steep so you really gotta heave yourself up there haha. It was super annoying if you had to use the bathroom during the night. It was like sleeping on the world's highest bunk bed. The bathroom was like a lot of European bathrooms where the toilet and the shower are all just together in one tiled room, no lip for separation. There is a shower curtain, but it doesn't really do much to contain the water. The sink to wash your hands is outside of the bathroom. The common areas downstairs were cute. A few big refrigerators to store your food and they provide labels. I've stayed in many hostels in my life and this was definitely a nice one but if you are like me and have gotten used to regular hotel rooms, just bite the bullet and spend the money! If you are in your 20's then go for it! :-)

Lovely hotel. I liked the amenities. The rooms were clean and smelled nice. It was a convenient location and super quiet too! Super charming! If I had to say anything negative; some of the staff was kind of dry, and if you have large luggage it can be a bit of a struggle if you are on the second or third floor (due to there being no elevators). BUT it’s understandable that they don’t have an elevator. I enjoyed my stay here, regardless, I would recommend and would book again!

Been here for three nights: definitely one of the best hostels I've ever seen: very clean, lot of free amenities, big lockers, nice staff, cool neighbourhood and on Thursday evening they even offer free beers. I'd say the only downside is that is not too close to the city center, but there are a few bus stops nearby so getting there is not complicated either. If I'm back in Washington, I'll come here.

Really cute hotel/hostel in a cute neighborhood. Really friendly staff that are super helpful. It does get a little loud at night, due to the busy neighborhood. The only strange thing was the room felt kind of damp and I wasn’t sure why. Otherwise, it was a great stay!

Very chill property. The cozy rooms are quite small and should be thought of as for one person or very short stays. People were all great and accommodating. We were on a business trip and had three pieces of larger luggage and had a walk up room on third floor. After a long day. Hauling luggage up the narrow stair cases was difficult for this weary traveler. I would use this lodging again, but when traveling for pleasure or alone.

We loved our stay at HighRoad! The rooms were cozy and well laid out. The staff was really friendly and had many recommendations for activities and directions. Location is great, directly near a lot of restaurants. We're recommending it to our friends who are planning to come to DC!

Super friendly staff. Wife and I enjoyed the hostel experienced. Hospitality at its best.

Very comfortable room, updated throughout. Perfect location in Adams Morgan to walk to everything. Staff friendly and helpful.
