Great Budget Stay in a Charming Spot! Before booking, I saw a lot of negative reviews on Google, which made me hesitant—but since I was only staying for one night, I decided to give it a try. Honestly, I’m really glad I did! The place is super cozy and cute. Check-in was incredibly easy—they sent me a link beforehand, which made the whole process smooth and contactless. Both the lobby and my room were neat and clean. I also appreciated the free coffee and tea, and the room had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The location is amazing—right in DuPont Circle, with lots of places within walking distance. It felt safe even at night, which is a big plus. I’m not sure what others experienced, but my stay was great. I’d definitely recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a clean, convenient, and budget-friendly place in DC!

The stall shower did not work and the bathroom sink had barely any water flow. I also can not get any kind of contact information to discuss this with them. A dump. Don’t stay here.

I paid a 2 night stay in this hotel, after they give me my room I told them that my “code” doesn’t work, they told me to don’t worry. So I went out and when I come back to the hotel at night, the code still NO WORKING, there was NOBODY on the building who can help me open the door, I call and send messages to everyone and at the end I have to spend my night in the street cuz I couldn’t even go inside the room I paid. Totally crazy that they make you paid for a room you can’t even use.

Situated in a wonderful neighborhood the Found has the potential to be an amazing stay, but there were too many issues to forgive. My room had an active leak that’s clearly been going on for weeks. The room hate paint peeling from the leak. Room was clearly worn with a great deal of quick caulk fixes throughout the room. I won’t be staying here again. There is no staff or concierge present which became a big issue when the fire alarm triggered at 8:30 in the morning.

Our stay was nice, linens were very clean as well. But overall the room was in terrible condition, all surfaces were wood and warped. There were holes and cracks splurging out of the wall. The tile in the bathroom was set back in place but not grouted and kept cutting our feet. From a picture afar it looks amazing, but once you get close up it really isn’t in great condition, atleast our room wasn’t. For cleanliness, i’d say it was very clean. Just terrible condition furniture/walls and NO mattress protectors. when stripping the bed before we checked out i learned there is no protection on the mattress, my fault for not looking when we arrived. That grossed me out entirely.

This is a really convenient location to the Capitol area and restaurants in Dupont Circle. It is compact, but even so, I would have liked the shower curtain to not cling to me. There were some cleanliness issues that I notified the property managers of, and they immediately asked to remedy. Am alarm also went off at 6:15 AM and continued until after I left at 7:00 AM. I notified the managers and it was remedied before I returned that evening.

Nice enough

Nice place, but no on site staff to assist with any issues. I loved the mattress, but was surprised that there was no mini fridge. Also, no daily refresh of the room. We had to reuse the 3 paper cups for several days, which was not ideal.
