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.

A good modern, clean hotel that matches the price. Only annoying things were that the blinds don’t properly block out light and the aircon rattles.

The place is fine if you just plan on sleeping there. The faucet for the shower almost came off in my hand this morning.

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.

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.
