Everything Better With Coffee
Motto is conveniently located in walking distance to so much in DC. The no fuss rooms are perfect for an on the go trip. The space to work on a laptop is adequate I would appreciate better access to coffee.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
This place is a ripoff. I had never stayed there before and will never again. First the rooms are ridiculously small maybe 14’ by 12’ with a 5’ by 6’ bath. I later learned it used to be called Pods and that’s all it was was a pod. Next no ice machines anywhere. I asked where I could get some and they directed to the bar where i was given two go cups with ice. Then the restaurant last night. We each ordered a cocktail and the smash burger. When the bill came it $was 75 including the mandatory 20 percent tip no matter the number in your party. So $75 for 2 burgers and 2 drinks. This morning I went down to get some coffee. No complimentary coffee. Had to wait until 7 and was charged $5.50.

Great price for this location and room
Pretty basic, but done well. The hotel is modern, super conveniently located and at this price well exceeded my expectations. The room has everything you need, don't think you can beat it at this price.

The only draw back was the homeless people on the street. The condo biulding across the street had private armed police around the biulding. This is not the Hiltons fault but it is a reality. I come from New York city so I understand it is a failure of the current administration

I liked the proximity to tourist attractions like the African American History Museum & the white house. Both were less than a 10 minute scooter ride away. There was a Chipotle and a Walgreens just 5 steps from the entrance! It’s also right by an arch for Chinatown which makes for some cool photos!

The main problem we had with the stay was that the breakfast place connected to the hotel wasn't open for food at 830am on a Saturday. So we couldn't get breakfast in the morning. Very disappointing. As well as no Ice Machine readily available. We did like the room. Very clean. Staff was very friendly.
