The property itself is very nice. Parking is off site and the rooms themselves are quite small. It is clean and well maintained. The restaurant onsite looks nice but we didn’t eat there.

The Motto is a favorite hotel because of walkability, proximity to entertainment and activities and the staff's friendliness and professionalism. It's clean, it's quiet, it's everything you need for a quick stay.

Modern, very clean, very small room, nice staff.

The hotel staff who checked me in were terrific -- efficient and very friendly. They did note the size of the room -- 150 sq ft, and they weren't kidding. But with the large bed, it didn't leave much room for anything else. A tiny (TINY) desk and a chair so I could put up a laptop. Bathroom had all the necessities, but the shower stall (no tub, but I don't need a tub) was also quite modestly sized. The "closet" had no door, just a bar to hang pants & shirts. Long items, like coats, had to go on the 3 hooks by the door. Glad I was here by myself on business. as two people in this room would have been really cramped. I was there only overnight, so not a huge issue, but for longer stays, get a larger room. Price was good for DC -- about $220 for the night. And the location was only about 2 blocks from Union Station. View? A wall. Didn't matter for me, but something to note for others.

Convenient location close to subway and public transportation. Rooms are very tinny but clean so if you are only sleeping over , it is ok. It is very noisy, you will hear the nighttime traffic and people walking by whole day and night. Some sound proof windows may help.
