"The hotel was clean, but no toiletries were provided other than a small bar of soap. No ice machine, but you can make ice in the freezer of the full-sized fridge. Good place for a longer stay, but a regular hotel might be better for a short stay.2017-05-09"
"The hotel was OK, but the sink in my room leaked.2021-01-04"

The staff was friendly.2021-06-28"

"This was my worst motel experience ever. The check-in clerk initially gave me key cards that didn't work. Then at 2 AM, some man tried to enter the room. After I scared him off, the clerk called and said I was supposed to be in another room. I told her I was in the room she had assigned me. Avoid this place.2015-11-10"

"Worst stay ever. There was no remote control for the TV in the room. The exercise room was closed, and we weren't told at check-in. There was too much chlorine in the pool; it was foaming and burned our eyes. The hallway floor was wet, and I twisted my ankle. I was told by a night clerk that my bill would be adjusted for all the trouble, but the checkout clerk wouldn't honor that. The hotel manager never called me as I requested. I'll tell people not to stay here.2015-06-25"

HotelGuides makes it easy to find hotels that are pet friendly. I also like the ease of changing reservations and that I don’t have to pay in advance.

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.
