Seemed like it’s a party hotel. Had people on the floor partying with loud music all hours of the morning. Security came on floor a few times. Walls super thin can hear everything in room next door. Overcharge on parking and amenities. Went to pool party got charge 20 for a towel and I was a guest there. Insane. Drinks were overpriced and tasted like water no type of alcohol.

The bed was comfortable and we liked the ability to raise the head of the bed. The restaurant was great with very good food and portions. The lights were unique for us (age 55+) so we had to figure out the settings to operate them correctly. Parking our vehicle was a challenge because we had a larger size truck that would not fit into the nearby parking garages, except for a garage that allowed you to come in on Friday but would not open back up until Monday unless you paid an additional fee to have someone let you out on those closed days. We were also disappointed that we could not utilize the rooftop pool and bar after 3pm because it was rented out for the summer to a 3rd party vendor who charged a cover for it's use. And lastly, although we liked the room itself, we were located on the side of the hotel that is next to a fire house. We experienced very loud machinery noises and loud horns some mornings.

Didn’t like parking. It was confusing and staff was of no help. No validation or discount on parking for hotel guests. We weren’t told about $10 credit until too late to use it.

Locals and tourists beware. Do not stay here.

The location is excellent and the hotel staff are great. This hotel is such garbage because of the third-party arrangement they have to close off the rooftop pool to hotel guests and give access, with a fee, to anyone who cares to participate. The rooftop pool party turns out to be a ratchet party, for anyone in the DMV area, and most, if not all people participating, are not staying at the hotel. They came only for the party. We saw people smashing champagne bottles in front of the hotel. People running out on their tabs at the restaurant. People walking with glass bottles of liquor around the pool (a huge safety issue). Regarding the champagne bottle smashing, the next morning the glass was still there. Yotel didn't even bother to clean it up. Overall, it was such an awkward experience. This is not a hotel environment. This place is trash.

Great place to stay for adults on a weekend

Great place to stay for adults on a weekend. Make sure to find out the schedule for the rooftop pool before booking. They hold a pool party with a dj on weekends that is not told on hotels.com… make sure to do research on YOTEL website. If you are up tight about seeing too much skin, this may not be a place for your weekend trip. For us, the room was perfect, the blackout blinds were perfect. The bed is a posturpedic bed, with multiple positions possible. Located within walking distance to so many places. Parking being $55, just park and walk everywhere.

We paid an amenity fee that included the pool. However, the pool was rented to an independent company that will host an event that actually charge you to use to allow the pool from 2-9pm. They didn’t have clean wash cloths. I had to purchase from a local store. I requested for the room to be clean and it was never done.

Big mistake booking this hotel. One of the reasons I booked Yotel was to take my 8 yo son to the pool. However, when I booked there was no warning about the pool being used by a third-party for an adults pool party/DJ event. We were told we had to leave the pool at 2pm. Guests are definitely not a priority. Throughout the afternoon and about 10pm the loud music gave us a headache. Horrible! The elevators smelled like skunk, and because of the amount of people at the party (non-hotel guests btw), finding an elevator was a pain in the neck. Do not recommend this hotel for families and will never book a yotel again! If you’re thinking about booking make sure to check if they are throwing parties first, or just avoid altogether, not worth the headache.

Yotel is located conveniently next to EVERYTHING in DC and the wharf. And quick 10 minute uber ride and you are anywhere you need to be. The hotel is definitely for the minimalist as it is a boutique line. When you arrive, there are kiosk for you to check in yourself even assign yourself a room key. I was given a promotional email for a discount on early check in so I went to the front desk to check in. Unfortunately the front desk agent was very combative and even when seeing the email wouldn't honor it. I had to ask him to call his supervisor who honored the email and asked me to forward it to him to see. I booked the room thru expedia which I am a VIP booker. Another perk was getting 29 food credit instead of 10 since our first class room couldn't be upgraded. When I asked the rep for this also showing the email and said he had a list of VIP guest and I wasn't on it. I chose this hotel for my birthday for the rooftop pool and bar. The front desk agent notified me that the pool would be closing at 2 all weekend for a private pool party. (Keep in mind that regular check in is at 3.) he said the pool party was 40.00 without a wristband and if I grabbed a wrist band by 4 I would be good to get in free. We put our bags down and came down at 1 to get a wrist band. We were told by the company running the pool party that everyone was being misinformed. The pool party would be every weekend this summer and not open to hotel guest unless they purchase a wrist band.
