Air conditioning in room only worked once in a while otherwise blew out hot air. It was 90 degrees out. Told front desk twice and nothing was done. The queen bed is two beds side by side with a big bump in the middle. Don’t recommend. And they charged me extra fees for their pool and “gym” that weren’t disclosed.

No complains but I don't understand why they do not provide at least soap or bath gel in the rooms and sell it for $1. That is MISERABLE, in my opinion.

Very easy to check in and out, trendy decor and excellent location. Two pieces of feedback: king mattress was lumpy on one side and made it an uncomfortable night's sleep, the second side was better. The bathroom flood flooded with (clean) water when I flushed the toilet.

The Generator dorm rooms are attractive for the competitive pricing compared to regular hotels in DC. I was impressed with the cleanliness and the functionality of the bunk beds with their little charging station, night light, and curtain. Overall bathroom was clean but small, w/o window, and w/o any "exhaust" air fan. Locks for the bunk storage are not provided. The common area was great for hanging around with a laptop or phone, lots of charging ports. Reception staff was nice. Walkable from DuPont Circle Metro station. I did not like the hours and prices of the bar restaurant and cafe. Cafe closes at 2pm, so you are out of luck for any coffee in the afternoon. Restaurant closes around 9pm, so that fell short in terms of service besides that they charge $4.50 for a can of soda to go. All that while signage says to not be stingy and to not bring outside food and drinks. But the reality is, you have to. Overall, the hard-working Cafe staff was understaffed in the busy morning hours. Bottom line is, that for a 4-person room the price/value ratio remains just so-so IMHO.

The Generator was a fantastic hotel for our school group! We stayed in the bunk bed rooms and they were perfect for our students. The location was also great and has a very close bus stop that made transportation very easy. The staff was so helpful at the front desk, cafe, and restaurant. I am overall extremely happy with our experience at the Generator and will come back for future school trips!
