The room was large and clean. The view was SPECTACULAR. The motel was booked through the entire weekend, but you really could not hear anything in the room. Great location to walk to Convention Center, Washington Mall and restaurants. The owner was very kind and helpful. It's clear that he takes pride in ensuring a great customer experience.
