"My "non-smoking" hotel room had obviously been smoked in. There was no control over people in the pool; my granddaughter and I couldn't go swimming or even eat downstairs because of all the loud people. I was disappointed.2017-09-05"
"Worst hotel experience ever. I booked 2 rooms for 5 ladies. The toilet didn't work in the 1st room. The hotel clerk said there was no maintenance worker on-site, so we'd have to change rooms. There were no sheets for the sofa bed, and I had to go to the front desk and get them myself. I wanted a cup of coffee, but the coffee pot in the lobby was broken. The AC in the 2nd room didn't work, and again, there were no linens for the sofa bed, so another room change was necessary. The 3rd room had bedbugs. The clerk suggested we wash our clothes in hot water. Not a good stay.2018-11-26"

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.
