I was in DC for a preemployment physical for the government and only there for a night, so all I really needed was a bed for the night. The HIDC fit the bill, but as it happened, the staff were very friendly and helpful. The hostel seemed pretty quiet, though I was there mid-week, but there were activities on offer pretty much every day, so I think there was plenty to do for people so inclined. The bathrooms and bedrooms were very clean, and I had no trouble getting a shower. The free wi-fi w Allison, from USA ~ 20th Nov 2009

The Hostel was probably one of the better ones I've ever stayed in. One problem however, was the wifi, it broke down on the 2nd day I was there and I dragged my laptop all the way from the other side of the country just to use it. The staff didnt seem particularly bothered about trying to get the matter fixed. Beds are a little bit tought but thats about it. Raine, from Australia ~ 17th Nov 2009
