It was easy to get to by metro from Union Station although I only had a small backpack with me. There’s a Whole Foods one block away and a lot of restaurants and cafes nearby. The other people in the dorm room were a PhD student from Sweden who was in town for a conference, a guy who was helping a friend move, and another guy on a business trip. It is somewhat hostel-style in that there are lockers and no free bath soap/shampoo but it also somewhat hotel style with access to the gym and the rooftop swimming pool and new towels every day. Each bed has two electric plugs and a lamp. I enjoyed my stay here, but just for reference, I usually do 2-month international trips where I stay only at hostels so my standards may be lower than the average AirBnB person.
