This hotel is in a very busy part of downtown Philadelphia. There is no area for you to pull into to drop off bags or people to check in. Once you get to the hotel traffic is coming up right behind you, honking horns wondering why you are stopping. Once inside the hotel you will see a coffee shop which was ok, it will be the only place in the hotel to get coffee unless you leave. Prices on par with Starbucks. The front desk staff seemed helpful, very relaxed attire. There was complementary bottled water at the front desk throughout our entire stay. There is a bar adjacent to the front desk. Cocktails were overpriced most were around $17 and the bar has no connection to the hotel. Parking was approximately $50 a day for in and out access. It is located directly across the street. It takes about 10-15 minutes for the staff inside to retrieve your vehicle, so don’t be in a rush. We decided to use a parking app and park about 0.6 miles away for half price of what the hotel charges. Our room was on the 2nd floor, it was a suite with no view outside except the stack from the building. Room was very basic almost like a college dorm or military barracks room. It had a working safe to lock valuables. We had to request an iron and ironing board as they are not included in the rooms. The iron did not get hot enough, so we had to purchase one from Target a block up the street. If I come back to Philadelphia, I would choose another hotel to stay, you can find better.

I always like staying at the Motto. It's right in the heart of the Rittenhouse area of Philly. Feels cozy. Close to 30th Street Station and a bunch of sights and sounds (including the most important one, a Brazilian steakhouse)!

The service was exceptional. The room was clean but the thermostat did not work correctly. We set it for 65 degrees but was 75 degrees all night.

Sink was leaking in the bathroom. The "ceiling" was just a concrete foundation which made the room so dusty it set off my allergies and you could hear the room upstairs opening and closing their blinds and it was very loud. Water fountain outside the rooms was a great idea but it didn't work.

Contemporary hotel in a great location

Nice hotel in a great area, close to the city centre, with lots of cafes, bars and restaurants nearby to choose from. The room was modern, quite sparsely furnished but had everything I needed and was very comfortable. The staff were both friendly and efficient. I'd happily stay again.

Hotel was very okay. Facilities were basic. Room had a sliding transparent door between the toilet and bedroom, which offers little privacy. Daily housekeeping. Water/ice machine were located only on the basement floor, which is inconvenient
