I was very comfortable at The Motto
My stay with The Motto was absolutely amazing. The vibe, the look (rooms, lobby, hallway), the service was just great. The mexican theme restaurant wasn’t my thing. But I would still come back 100%.

Holiday Weekend Getaway
I decided to stay at this hotel because of the reviews and the in location meal options, which I never took advantage of! All staff that I came into contact with were friendly and professional. I went in knowing they only had communal microwaves in the basement but I appreciated the in room mini fridge. Room was clean and comfortable.I would like to stay again when it's warmer to take full advantage of the rooftop restaurant.

Great for a quick stay
The hotel is located next to everything I needed. Stayed for the Philadelphia marathon and it was just a mile walk to the start line! Sound proofing isn’t the best in the rooms- I could clearly hear conversations in the hall, my neighbor coughing, etc but it was clean and comfortable for what I needed.
