Capitol City Hostel Reviews

The is very homely such that in a relatively noisy environment I felt calm ,costly and at home. Bill is a wonderful friendly and helpful host .You really feel like you are getting to know the USA and its people at this hostel.The very large comfortable beds were a real plus !! thanks Bill !!

fantastic stay in DC, thanks to this great hostel. i stayed totally 7 nights here. bill is the best host i had in a long time! and folks, DONT MISS THIS BEDS! its the greatest bed i had in a long time, and really, what is more important? to top it all you have toast, peanutbutter and jam the whole day, bill is always there for you and helps you out with whatever you need. definetely will stay here again if coming back to DC.

A very good hostel but with all the additional taxes/charges it was very expensive.

Change nothing. Great little independant hostel. Bill does a marvellous job in being hospitable and to ensure that everyone has a pleasant stay.

The hostel was very comfortable, clean and hac a great couch area to meet other travelers. There was also super fast wifi, free toast and peanut butter all day, and computers with printing facilities. Bill the manager was really friendly and helpful and made us feel very welcome. The only downside is the neighborhood is not in the best part of DC, but the bus stop is very close to the hostel

Felt a little bit old and cluttered. Really enjoyed the atmosphere though. Keep up the good work.

Its is a good place to stay. The host Bill is really friendly, alot of the beds are doubles and it did feel like home. It is a little far from the centre but there is a bus stop near by. One thing to note though is that some people may consider the neighbour a little shady, I personally didnt mind it but it is one thing to consider.

Great place to stay! Bill was very helpful with all kinds of information.

Amazing hostel, great staff, very friendly. Felt like home as soon as we stepped in the door. Would definitely return if i came to Washington again. Did not want to leave so soon! Thank you!

Its like my second home.Very comfortable and with great atmosphere of the home comfort. Definitely will stay there again if i`ll` be in dc

The beds were so good. A whole double bed (in a bunk), so comfortable, got the best sleep.

Bill is a great caring and helpful host. I only stayed in the hostel for two nights but really appreciated it. Free toasts, peanut butter and milk, that's much more than any other youth hostel would ever offer. It is not right in the town center but the bus can get you there quite quickly.

The hostel is run by Bill and he is a really great person. I'm glad I've met him. The location a bit far a way from downtown(4 mi), but you can always use X2 metrobus, that will get you there in no time. The service runs for 22 hours so, you can stay late in downtown. I really enjoyed the spirit of this place.

I was staying at Capital City Hostel in Washington DC and I liked my time here. Bill is a great person. Very helpful and very kind. In this hostel I felt myself like at home. Amazing city! Excellent hostel! Great locatoin! I advise you to stay in this hostel if you want to visit Washington DC.

Capitol City hostel is small, but very comfortable and very nice place to stay. Who wants to live in Washington DC for a reasonable price, this is one of the best places. Bill, the boss of the hostel is awesome and funny person, he was nice and very helpful. It was great time there.

Bill is an amazing host and has a great establishment. Though the location may be a little out of the centre of the city, it is easily reached with a single bus trip.

A couple of houses converted into a hostel, in a little bit of run down area out of town, but easy enough to get to as its right next to a bus stop. Owner was lovely and outstandingly helpful, place was ok although a little rough round the edges, but with the amazing free toast and peanut butter, and the excellent price we were pretty happy.

Nice place, friendly and handy to centre!

The hostel was good, felt like being in a student dorm (which I liked), the manager is nice, explains to you what you need to know, also about the city (how the streets and public transport work), public transport stops almost in front of the hostel. It's a 25 minute walk from Union Station. The neighbourhood is not so great though. Walking through it will guarantee you a meeting with a homeless person or two, but otherwise it's fine, halfway to Union Station, you'll find a supermarket

Very cheap and quite well situated, plus all the peanut jelly sandwiches you can eat, score. Friendly and very relaxed atmosphere.
