When I got the room it was clean and tidy, but for the rest of my stay I only received new towels and the room was not cleaned nor the bed made. When I went to the front desk to complain about it, I was told that they do not tidy and clean the rooms during guests' stays, only change the towels.

My visit with Motto Rittenhouse Square, Philadelphia, was extraordinary. The hotel itself is beautiful — superbly decorated, maintained, and staffed. The lobby is fabulous with a cafè, restaurant, and lounge area. Every front desk attendant during my stay consistently went above & beyond. . . The rooftop restaurant served fabulous tapas & cocktails as well! My room was quiet, comfortable, and elegant. The hotel is in close, walkable proximity to Rittenhouse Square Park, several shopping districts, museums, and upscale restaurants. There is plenty available for everyone! When in Philadelphia, Motto is a must. I will certainly return. Thank you all very dearly for such a generous stay.

The bed was improperly made but very comfortable. The bathroom, especially the shower was dirty and I did not use it. I fault management, not the housekeepers, they are probably given way too many rooms to clean in too short of a time.
