2 nights in Washington D.C, we are enjoyed our stay in Motto, the hotel is very clean, front desk are warm and hospitable. The location of the hotel is very convenient for eating and visiting.
The staff were incredible and incredibly friendly. They went above and beyond to explain the area to me and even gave tips on local buses and attractions.
Excellent value for the price! The room was small but very well done. With the exception of not having a coffee maker or availability of coffee anywhere in the hotel until 7 am, I have a wonderful stay.
This property was clean and the staff were very friendly. The room was very small and lacked space to put our bags. Some extra shelve up high or under the bed would have been good. The location was excellent for seeing the sights and museums. There were plenty of good dining options close to the hotel.
The hotel is amazing, extremely clean, albeit small like some reviews said it was cozy and efficient. We had everything we needed. The staff was warm and welcoming from the time we walked through the doors. The location was perfect and everything was located in close proximity and easily accessible.
Great and hospitable staff. There were able to give us an early check in and was an easy process. The room was small as expected but still very spacious . My only complaint would have to be the water pressure in the shower. We tried to see if it was a setting but no the pressure was just very poor. Besides that, I would definitely stay again.
Hotel itself was fine, obviously trying to do the London/tiny motel room for a reasonable price which was okay for my needs. But it's become a pretty sketchy area, was convenient for me to get to the Nation Archives where I had daily business, but you need to stay alert. Used to be a good area, hopefully will be gentrified. I won't stay there again but that's because of the area. The hotel was fine. The area could use some other restaurants besides Chinese/Asia, but it is Chinatown.

The Restaurant/Bar was very nice and reasonably priced for it's location. Convenient to Metro Station but immediate area felt a little unsafe. Police and Security people seemed omnipresent in the one square block there.
We stayed here for a concert. Best decision we have ever made staying here. It was so convenient to the capital one area. I will
Definitely stay here again. I really enjoy our over all stay.
