"Not a great area; I didn't feel safe. Not a good value, either. The room was mediocre and not that clean, and the bath towels were stained. The hallway smelled like cigarette smoke and cheap perfume. There was only one hotel clerk, who was rude when I complained.2019-04-08"
"This hotel was terrible, and I didn't like that dogs were there. The room had an odor, the bed was more like a cot, and the bedsheets were dirty. The hallways smelled like marijuana. I checked out early. Don't stay here.2018-02-14"
"The bathtub dripped so loudly we could hear it even with the bathroom door shut. I told the hotel clerk, but it wasn't fixed and we weren't offered another room. Other than that, the staff was friendly and helpful.2017-03-20"
"The hotel was infested with cockroaches, and the carpet turned our feet black. Only 1 of the 2 beds had a blanket. The stove was broken. The dresser wasn't level, so the drawers wouldn't stay closed. Young people were openly using drugs, and it smelled horrible by the elevator. Don't stay here.2021-06-02"
"The hotel room smelled strongly of cigarette smoke. The stove was falling apart, and the bedsheets were stained.2020-09-13"
"This was such an awful hotel, and the service was the worst. Don't stay here.2016-03-16"
"The room was clean, but the AC didn't work, and we didn't get a 1st floor room as requested. I waited with other guests for over 30 minutes before someone turned up at the front desk at 8:30 PM. No apology for the delay, and the clerk took a personal call during my check-in, so my questions were ignored. Nice breakfast, but the attendant kept pushing gloves at us before we'd made any choices. 2022-09-01"
"Just a place to sleep and shower. The hotel was located in a bad area. The stairway was never cleaned. The pool area was littered with cigarette butts; the pool was ice-cold, and the whirlpool was boiling hot.2021-03-28"
"The room was comfortable, and the AC worked well. The bed was adequate, but it was a bit soft for me. Breakfast was in a bag, but had a sandwich that could be heated in a microwave. I recommend this hotel.2020-11-20"
"The hotel was decent, though the price seemed a little high. There was an issue with the toilet, which wasn't properly bolted to the floor. 2019-02-13"
"Nice, clean hotel. Good place to stay.2016-08-18"
"The hotel was fairly clean and well-kept. Good place to stay.2016-03-29"
"An older hotel in a noisy area by I-10. The traffic noise sounded like a racetrack by my room. There was a sticky stain on the carpet, and the top sheet was missing from the bed. The pool was in the shade. I was here for a professional class, and our water and snacks were removed before our break, so we had to buy water from the machine. The only restaurants nearby were McDonald's, Burger King, and one great Mexican place. The hotel diner had irregular hours and slow service; it was often closed. I wouldn't stay here again.2021-05-05"
"The service was excellent, and I liked that I didn't have to leave the hotel to get breakfast.2020-09-30"
"Great choice. The hotel room was clean, and the service was good. We really enjoyed our stay.2020-06-28"
"The hotel location was seedy, and there were homeless people in the area. Poor breakfast. The orange juice machine dispensed clear water, and the apples weren't fresh. Don't stay here.2022-03-13"
"Nice hotel in a good location. Good quality for a good price.2021-12-23"
"I didn't like this motel. We didn't get rooms next to each other as requested, and I didn't like being given a handicap room. The door didn't close properly, the AC didn't adequately cool the room, the bathroom door didn't close, and the curtains were falling down. Don't stay here.2019-10-23"
"I expected a better motel for the price. The room door didn't close properly, the curtains were falling down, and the bathroom door didn't close. The fridge didn't work well. Find another place to stay.2019-10-21"

How Do We Define Motel?
To us, motels are smaller lodgings that have rooms you can enter directly from the parking area.
At hotels, on the other hand, you can enter your room only through a hall inside the building.
Hotel Booking Tips
Beware of non-refundable reservations that could cost you a lot of money if you change or cancel them. +Non-refundable reservations are a gamble that will usually save you less than $10. If you make a $90 non-refundable reservation instead of a $100 refundable booking, you are betting $90 to win $10. Would you do that in Las Vegas? -
Don't assume you can cancel a non-refundable reservation without penalty if you notify the hotel weeks or even months in advance. +Often you cannot – because some hotels' profit strategy is to get paid more than once for the same room for the same night. -
Always read cancellation policies carefully before you make a reservation. + When is the latest date and time you can cancel without penalty? - More >
When you make a reservation, you will receive a confirmation email. Take a copy with you to the hotel.
The earlier in the afternoon you check into a hotel, the more likely you will get a room or suite that matches your preferences.
