Disliked: Cleanliness
Overall a nice stay, however many surfaces in the room were a bit dirty and had smear marks like they hadn’t been properly cleaned and the key cards we were given had multiple stains/smears too so that was a little gross. Other than that it was perfect for our short stay, great location and friendly staff.

Small but just right

I knew from reading reviews that the rooms were pretty small, but they are efficient and very well-designed for comfort and functionality. I was in DC for a conference and basically just slept and showered in my room, so for that, it was very comfortable, with fully functional and easy to use temperature control, a very comfortable bed, sufficient storage space for clothes, and an efficient bathroom with shower.

Perfect

We chose Motto for it's proximity to the Rock n Roll Series Half Marathon. It was just perfect for what we needed. The staff was super helpful and professional. They let us check in a bit early and also extended our stay for us to be able to come back after the race and freshen up.

This is not a reflection on the hotel itself but the area surrounding the hotel is a little sketchy. great if you are not traveling alone but a little scary when you are as there are a lot of beggars.
