Everything about the stay was wonderful , except for the size of the room. It was clearly listed in the details when we made the reservation, however, we overlooked it. It was very small and took a little bit of getting used to, but in the end, everything was fantastic.

So Disappointed!!

My daughter and I stayed here for one night. It was not kid friendly, at all. We tried to get out of our TINY room and eat downstairs in the lobby. The attendant told us we couldn’t eat there. We couldn’t go on the roof either because she wasn’t 21. We were told we could go eat in our rooms. The attendant by the bar was very rude. The only people who were kind were the two young ladies working during the morning shift on June 14, 2025. I think Dinora checked me in. She actually allowed me to check in earlier than expected. She was very accommodating! One other issue was the level of noise that could be heard all night. Apparently, the windows were not sound proof. I had to catch a 7:00 am flight. I couldn’t sleep at all because of sirens, cars and everything else going by the entire night. It was horrendous. Motto by Hilton was certainly not worth $195 per night.

We liked the coziness of the room, but later after check in it dawned on us that the room booked was without a refrigerator and pillows were too soft. Location was great. Most importantly EACH staff member was very friendly and personable!!

A modern and youthful place – perfect for a short stay. Spotlessly clean and in an excellent location. I absolutely recommend it. One frustrating thing: I booked via Expedia, but wasn’t allowed to use the food and beverage credit, which felt like throwing that money out the window.

Glad I picked this hotel

We had a good view. Like the area. Walgreens on the corner about 2 buildings down. Hotel and dinner were great. Definitely coming back to stay. About 25 min walk to the national mall. McDonald's taco bell Chick-fil-A on same street. Coffee everywhere. Parking lot is a 1 minute walk around the corner. I think it's called colonial parking fyi. 25$ for 24hrs. It's located in Chinatown. The yard house is also another great restaurant.
