The hotel is in the perfect spot. My only complaint is how small the rooms are. It felt like I was sleeping in a dorm… overall it was clean and the staff were friendly.
It's really an excellent hotel. Super comfortable, super clean, and in an excellent location. I think it's one of the best hotels I've stayed in especially for the price range.
My room was a bit small and dark, but I booked the cheap expedia bundle. Excellent neighborhood for eating, shopping, walking. I sampled both restaurants, and was pleasantly surprised. Young crowd. Pet friendly.
Small, cute boutique hotel. Very central location!

The rooms are very clean. Every staff member has a smile and is helpful. The drinks were delicious and staff suggestions were tasteful and worth exploring.
Overall Hotel Nell is such a refreshing different type of hotel. It brings me back to another time when emphasis wasn’t on a corporate look or style. It’s not just that it’s reasonable and ranks highest on all the usual dimensions of cleanlinessThe atmosphere is relaxed, the staff—largely young people—are not only friendly but like what they’re doing. We stayed for two nights in a room with two twin beds. It’s strengths go way beyond the usual with excellent cleanliness, helpful
Hotel was in a great location near the major food halls in Union market. Easy walk to train station

Nice staff, very helpful while I stayed here. It is around 21 mins from downtown, but over all a good stay for DC. Nice clean room. Street is very busy, but I didn’t mind it.
My stay here was wonderful staff was extremely nice and helpful. I love the pet friendly environment and the vibe of this hotel it was a wonderful experience. Near by Union Market is a chef 💋
Really cute hotel very close to Union Market - great for shows, dining, exploring. Parking a little tough (seems like what they have available for reserved parking can fill up) but there are some other garages nearby as well. Would definitely stay here again!
