The hotel stay was totally fine for the staying for one night until in the morning when we found a cockroach in our room that totally turned us off from the visit/hotel as that’s completely disgusting. I did tell the front desk but all I got was an okay we”ll take care of it & nothing else or no other accommodations . We likely won’t be returning.

Such a small room, and nowhere to just hang out for a bit. Staff was ok. They gave half of our group a free drink ticket, but not the rest.

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.
