The room was compact but very clean and comfortable. I really liked that it is across the street from a metro station. Lack of a complimentary breakfast in the morning was a downer.

Well disclosed that rooms are small, but they are super efficient and confortable. Lobby is fantastic, gym is outstanding considering that space is a premium. Staff excellent and accomodating. Hard to imagine better access to transport (Metro across street + bus stop on corner), or to restaurants *literally 100's that are walkable*

Just six short months in DC the environment feels safer due to the US National Guard deployment, especially heavy at night and weekends. No homeless encampments but a few sidewalk sleeepers that were ignored by local PD, sad. Overall DC has a safer environment than just 6 months ago, I guess all it took to turn DC around was a new administration, simple.

The Motto by Hilton is an excellent affordable option for a business hotel in downtown DC. Hotel rooms in DC can be outrageously expensive - and this is not the case at the Motto. That said, Motto describes itself as a micro-hotel. The rooms are small (sized more like London hotel rooms) and the in-room amenities (like a refrigerator) are sometimes missing. The Motto is very well maintained, everything works, the staff is very helpful, bed was comfortable, internet is free. Other than the small rooms, there is everything to recommend the Motto. There are two restaurants/bars on site - on the first floor and top floor (with outdoor veranda). I did not try either but looking at menus and the number of people at either, they seem to be good options. The Motto is conveniently located across the street from the Gallery Place Metro Station, there is a convenience store/pharmacy a few doors away and a huge number of restaurants/fast food within walking distance. A possible downside is lack of running/jogging opportunities, as running on the streets is painful but this would be true for any downtown DC hotel. The best option is to head south to the National Mall which is 0.7 miles away.
