Room was clean, comfortable and they made up the room and supplied new clean towels daily. Breakfast supplied had bagels, doughnuts, and cereal and coffee. Gentlemen at check in friendly, polite and very helpful. Only downside was no elevator and I was on the 3rd floor, so I didn't

The room was large and clean. The view was SPECTACULAR. The motel was booked through the entire weekend, but you really could not hear anything in the room. Great location to walk to Convention Center, Washington Mall and restaurants. The owner was very kind and helpful. It's clear that he takes pride in ensuring a great customer experience.
