"Good hotel, except they told us to park our car several blocks away in an alley." — source Hostelworld

"Lock on the door was a bit dodgy but overall, we had a great trip." — source Hostelworld

"Wouldn't stay again but only if I really had to." — source Hostelworld

"recommend getting a room on an upper level." — source Hostelworld

Clean:

"The Allen Lee Hotel looks rather shabby from the outside but on the inside it's very clean, the staff is really friendly and the hostel is about three-to four block from the White House, so the area is very safe and nice." — source Hostelworld

"The room had not been cleaned and there were hairs in the shower and bathroom of our ensuite, and also in our bed. As far as I could tell all that had been done is the clean towels and new soap." — source Hostelworld

"The building does not look nice on the outside, but rooms are very clean, housekeeping services every day, the staff is nice and decent breakfast is served." — source Hostelworld

"This place is good value for money and rooms are cleaned daily, there is even a PC and laptop with internet that can be used by the guests." — source Hostelworld

"by no means a fancy place, but generally pretty good, and the bed was comfortable/clean." — source Hostelworld

Service:

"Not bad- basic, but with a good location and friendly staff, and breakfast included." — source Hostelworld

Location:

"The location is brilliant and seems safe, but our room on the ground floor had windows looking straight onto the street, and we didn't always feel completely secure." — source Hostelworld

"The location is great - very safe (mostly students around) and just a couple of blocks to the White House or to the subway @ Foggy Bottom." — source Hostelworld

"good location right opposite the university, walking distance to all main monuments, rooms a bit noisy lots of police sirens." — source Hostelworld

"It's at very good location, directly beside the george washington university and near the white house." — source Hostelworld

"Perfect location for a short trip, you can really walk everywhere within a couple of minutes." — source Hostelworld

"They sent us (8 people) to Virginia because they had a mistake in the booking, they promised us our privates rooms with bath for the next day and we had a shared bath and we lost 2 days because they came 2 hour later for us." — source Hostelworld

"Basement rooms were were easily accessible from the street so i didn't feel safe leaving my valuables in the room which was annoying." — source Hostelworld

"The hotel room is just like the room that the general Chinese university supply for their undergraduate students." — source Hostelworld

"Also constant noise of the heating system as the pipework ran along the ceiling of the room in a duct, very hard to sleep." — source Hostelworld

"but they put us in a different (even better and bigger + bathroom/shower) room :) so it was alright." — source Hostelworld
