Hi, I'm Cade Spencer, and I'm a Hairdresser. I have traveled a lot in my career so far, mostly on a budget, so I have stayed in quite a few hostels during my trips. I have many recommendations to make in that regard. To get to know them better, I started my journey in Washington.

I have chosen to stay in hostels because they offer not just a place to sleep, but a great atmosphere, interesting people to talk to and get to know, share different experiences and even make new friends. Most hostels offer discounts for long stays, a fully-equipped kitchen for you to use, basic amenities, comfortable and clean rooms, great activities and usually a common room and shared gardens where you can relax. And the prices are usually reasonable in comparison to hotels.

After my travel experience in Washington, I have concluded that there are a lot of great hostels in the city that provide quality and comfort that are worth choosing for a great and exciting trip. I have created a list of the Best Hostels in Washington that I have visited or want to visit, which are worth choosing for a great and exciting journey in the city.
