The staff was very patient and polite trying to help me resolve issues that arose. The property is clean and the room was good. I was frustrated however that the water needed to run about 15 mins before getting warm, never really hot. Also the room air quality was not to my standards. However I appreciate that no matter what the concern was, any staff member I spoke to was very kind.

Had a great stay at HighRoad. Great location in the heart of Adams Morgan, and room was lovely and clean. Only thing to bear in mind is there's no lift, which is unideal - that being said, the person at the desk did offer to help with my suitcase if needed.

Amazing hotel.My room was clean and very comfortable. The location was in Adams Morgan area- great neighborhood. I’d stay at the High Road again. Definitely recommend it if you don’t mind a small room. And I’m a senior so you don’t have to be a “kid” lol to enjoy the stay.

Climb into a Cozy Bed!

This place is within walking distance of a parking garage to keep your car and near the conference center. The bed is in a loft to climb a ladder, so if you are fit and do not mind the climb, this is a very cozy place to stay.

I will say that temper your expectations, the reviews seemingly are all five stars and this is a decent place. Not sure the rooms for the hostel are any different than the others. Yes , stairs , yes very very very small rooms. Staff seemed a bit blah and not super enthusiastic but that is fine . This place has the nerve to think you could put a table and chairs in the room. That is too funny. The good? It’s clean. Secure and in one of the best neighborhoods. Go visit Ben’s chilli , tryst and all the amazing places to eat. I would say if you are an adult or anyone , maybe think about a 3 night stay as it’s way too cramped for anything else

The hotel was perfectly located, and easily accessible by any transportation mode. The staff are great, the handy brochures were a perfect quick grab in the lobby before heading out. The shared kitchen is fantastic, any everyone staying there respects other's property. The facility is very clean, well maintained and ideal for a short or longer stay. As a couple, who aren't backpacking students we enjoyed our stay in the private hotel-style rooms, vs the hostel style. It's simple, affordable and filled with friendly people all around.
