The price is cheap for Washington DC, with a subway station and a famous hot dog stand right in front.

The towel was a bit yellowed, and there was no place in the shower room to put clothes or a changing area.

They were so kind to me, they answered all my questions and I felt good because there were specific rooms just for women. I liked the showers and the cafeteria. I also liked the location because it is very close to a metro station.

They should add doors to each capsule so everyone can have more privacy. They should also improve the balcony, fix it up to make it look nicer, and the chairs as well.
