It was my first time experiencing a dorm type setting. Although pricewise it was great, as it was a last minute booking. However the other occupants weren't considerate. It was also weird to hear the room door being opened once almost settled in for the night. Bathrooms were dated.

Enjoyed my stay at Generator Washington. Staff were great, rooms clean, and they provided free towels which is rare for hostels these days. As for any drawbacks, the hostel is just a bit far from a metro station and there isn’t much of interest in the immediate vicinity.
