5/5 Excellent

"Booked through Travelocity at the amount posted as book now pay later. My fault for not checking the amount on the confirmation bc it booked at the regular rates at the hotel. Travelocity says it's the hotels fault and hotel says it's Travelocity fault. So i got stuck paying @300.00 more for our stay. I was not expecting over 700.00 for the hotel. Nice hotel but not worth over 700.00 for 2 nights. And you could tell by the look on their faces at check in, including the manager, they knew exactly what was going on. I won't stay there again."

Motto by Hilton Washington DC City Center

5/5 Excellent

"I almost never leave reviews but my experience here was so good, I want to share it. First thing, yes the rooms are small but the dimensions are listed so there should be no surprise. But also, the room was CLEAN- like immaculately clean and that’s important for me. The week before I’d stayed at a major hotel chain in a large US tourist city for a lot more $ than Motto, and the room was dirty w chipped worn furniture. Even the Motto gym was pristine - and spacious. I was In DC for museums, both work and pleasure, and the location was perfect for a scenic walk to them. Also… the staff! At that other hotel, I went down to front desk at midnight to ask for extra blankets and they looked at me w bored faces and said I couldn’t get blankets until the morning- this at a hotel w 100 rooms! At Motto everyone was beyond friendly and accommodating. I used to work in high profile fine dining and am alert for service- it can make or break my experience. Example: I was out for dinner and mortifyingly spilled my Gatorade in my canvas bag, soaking it w orange liquid. I asked the Motto clerk if I could use a hotel dryer and she said they don’t normally allow it but she asked a manager who was passing by. The manager said sure thing and she’d return the bag to my room. When I came back later, not only was my bag dry and folded but she gave me two of the hotels canvas bags w a note saying she hoped I liked them! I’ll definitely be back and thanks to everyone for a great experience! "
