Great experience, but building very tight!

The location was phenomenal. GPS may give you false walking directions. If you're using public transit, so know when you get off at Eastern Market Station, is simply walk two blocks SE down Pennsylvania Avenue. That's it. The hostel is in the middle of the block between 9th and 10th streets on the left. But the building is very tight! This is an old building easily older than a century and maybe even older than that. What is used as a office desk to check you in, is actually someone standing in the entry quarter which is very narrow. Like all hostels, you take your shoes off and the best you can do is try and sit on the shoe rack and stay out of the way of the person standing to check you in. From there, recognize that this hostel is absolutely, positively, NOT disability accessible! These are very narrow, winding, steep stairs. You have to just lean your body into the wall, hoist yourself up one stair at a time, and do the best you can to pull your luggage up. Once in the rooms, they are extremely tight. They do have lockers for you to lock your personal belongings, but these are small lockers. There is absolutely no furniture in the room except bunk beds. But, the living room area is comfortable, and there is a nice little deck on the third floor that you can sit in up to 9:00. The attendant on duty when we were there, made pancakes in the morning, and they were some of the best pancakes we ever had! What truly made this place spectacular were the staff! Extremely nice!

I want to give a 4/5 just because how good of a host Lamonte was, but this could also be a 2/5 for lack of or confusing amenities hence my 3-star rating. The interesting thing is you take off your shoes when you enter which leads to it being cleaner than it otherwise would be except for the kitchen which was still sticky. Warning: the lockers will not fit large luggage and may not even fit a normal backpack depending on which lockers are available when you arrive. If you're paranoid about leaving your stuff in your room which is not locked either, don't bring large bags. You can't use a thick lock either, conveniently there is a hardware store across the street, 1.25in. lock works. The upstairs lounge and deck close at 10pm for quiet hours leaving the downstairs one usable until midnight. You can always go there cuz that's where the bathrooms are & showers for men. Awkward locations, but it's an old charming house. Breakfast is pancakes and lemonade but when I went down, nobody was there, just pancake batter. Probably people ate earlier and figured no one was coming after. Officially I think it ends at 9:30 and I was there just before 9. Lastly, I got rushed to leave. Check out is 11am, they were confused when my phone was charging on the bed and I was eating upstairs at 10. 10min before check out, I'm finishing brushing my teeth and bro is fed up with me. A reminder is fair, but is it a crime to check out before 11? Make it earlier if you want people to leave earlier.

If you arrived late than 12am, you will need to PAY ADDITIONAL $50, which really annoied me at that time but I had no chouce but paid it at the late night. THe hotel said they mentioned this fee in their website, but who will check the website after booking on Expedia. They didn't send me message mentioning that either.
