"Easy walk to the store, and centrally located. The motel room was small, but it was nice and pretty clean. No microwave. There were water ants in the bathroom, though. Parking was tight and limited.2021-11-14"
"Simple and worth the price. The room was clean, but didn't have a closet, an iron, or ironing board. No hangers for the rack on the wall. The motel staff was nice.2021-10-08"
"A good, older motel with updated rooms. Not much within walking distance, but there was a good airport shuttle. We were able to check out late due to a late flight. Walk to Tally Rand Restaurant, which had excellent food.2021-08-14"

"The motel was a bit pricey. It was located right below the freeway, so ask for a 1st floor room. The WiFi was slow. Parking wasn't free, and the parking spaces were small.2021-06-07"
"Clean, comfortable room. The motel clerk accommodated my request for an early check-in. All the clerks were friendly and professional. The parking lot filled up quickly in the evening.2017-03-22"
"The front desk clerk was helpful, but the valet was rude. No shuttle to Universal Studios, and parking was expensive. This hotel was overrated.2015-02-19"
"A 20-minute walk to the hospital. The room was plain but decent, and the bed was comfortable. No carpeting, which was fine with me. I'd asked for a smoking room, but got a smoke-free room. My request for an early check-in was denied. I waited 20 minutes for the office to open. The motel clerk was rude and even asked for my credit card PIN; I had to shield the numbers with my hand. I was charged a $200 security fee because I paid with a debit card. The checkout clerk was pleasant, and there was an employee who was gracious and made my stay better.2021-01-29"

"Easy to access from the freeway. The hotel was clean and quiet. I had a basic room with minimal extras. Easy check-in, friendly staff, and adequate information was provided. Limited continental breakfast. I did smell marijuana in the hall one day. The parking lot didn't leave much room to maneuver when it was full, and customers of the bar next door gathered in the hotel parking lot. I expected more for the price.2018-06-12"
"OK motel for the price. The room was clean, and the bed was comfortable. Everything worked, and the small AC cooled the room quickly. About half of the TV channels were in foreign languages, so the selection for me was limited. No security, but there were no homeless people in the area.2022-01-17"
"The motel room was nice, clean, and updated.2021-06-17"

"The hotel room was disgusting. The curtains were two different sizes, and the windowsills were dirty. The bedsheet was stained. There was some sort of goo running down the bathroom door. I told the front desk clerk, but nothing was done about the problems. The housekeeper only left 1 towel. The manager was nice and apologetic, and gave me a bit of a refund. The pool was tiny. I wouldn't recommend staying here.2019-04-20"

"I stay at this hotel every 3 months or so, and it's greatly improved. The room was clean and smelled good. From check-in to checkout, the clerk was thoughtful and caring; he even called my room to make sure everything was fine. The checkout clerk was also kind. The parking lot was clean, and the hallways have been improved. Give this place a try.2023-10-01"
"The hotel room was clean and comfortable. Most of the employees were pleasant, and there was plenty of parking. I did notice some cars in back with people sleeping in them. The to-go breakfast wasn't good, just coffee and protein bars. The doors were open, letting the chilly air in.2022-12-24"
"The hotel clerk welcomed me. The bed and kitchen area was huge. Nice desk with 2 chairs, as well as a ready area with a cushy chair. The room was close to an exit door for my service animal. Grab and go breakfast and coffee available. There was a laundry room with plenty of machines. Parking was well-lit, and cars had to have tags for security.2022-05-30"

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.
