"A comfortable, family-owned hotel in a quiet area. The rates were good. It was clean and welcoming, with easy access to the freeway and local restaurants. The breakfast food was hot and fresh. The 1st floor was being remodeled during my stay, but the elevator worked and the upper floor was completely remodeled and comfortable.2023-09-18"

"The bathroom sink was full of dirty water when we arrived. There was a soiled towel on the rack, and a used bar of soap in the shower. It made us questions the overall cleanliness of the hotel room.2018-09-05"
"Good hotel with nice rooms. Our room was on the side of the building near the interstate, and it was hard to sleep due to the traffic noise. Breakfast was good, but the eating area was crowded. It was a holiday weekend, so that wasn't a surprise. Nice restaurant across the parking lot.2018-09-04"
"The hotel was clean, and the beds were comfortable. Good breakfast. I recommend staying here.2017-10-09"
"Everything was clean. The bed was comfortable, and had lots of fluffy pillows. The hotel staff was helpful. We arrived too late to be able to enjoy the pool and exercise room.2015-07-30"
"At least this hotel accepts pets. I found some hairs in the bathtub. I brought it to the attention of the front desk clerk, and got absolutely no response. No staff at the desk on departure. Not too impressed.2015-04-01"
"We had to wait 15 minutes before the hotel staff welcomed us. I booked 2 rooms, and we had to get my daughter out of the car to verify that the 2nd room was for her. The clerks acted like it was an inconvenience that we wanted a coffee maker, coffee, and cups; we heard them talking in back about who should bring the items to us and who hadn't had a break. The room was OK, though the TV remote control didn't work. The exhaust fan in the bathroom had been removed. The bathroom door was hard to shut, and no shampoo was provided. We had to take our towels to the front desk to get clean ones. Because of construction, the parking lot was full, so we had to park next door. The phone buzzed in the 2nd room, and there was no soap provided. Look for other options.2019-09-24"
"The hotel room needed some attention. We found crumbs and other items on the floor, the coffee maker didn't work, and the corners and bathtub needed better cleaning. The employees were friendly, professional, and accommodating.2017-11-01"
"The hotel was clean and dog friendly. No pillowcases for the extra pillows, and there was a loud bachelorette party until the early morning hours. I'd stay here again.2019-05-07"

"The beds in my hotel room were comfortable, but the pillows were small. Good TV channel selection. Excellent complimentary breakfast to feed hungry teen boys; there were lots of hot and cold selections.2016-04-29"
"This hotel was pretty bad. The room was small, but the bathroom was smaller; I practically had to crawl into the bathtub in order to close the door. The sink was outside the bathroom, and there was no counter or place to put toiletries. The microwave and refrigerator were on the floor of the portable closet, and the microwave cord wasn't even long enough to reach the outlet. I had to move them to the desk and charge my devices on the floor by the bathroom sink. The bedside lamp didn't work. The hot water was just lukewarm. The cookies in the lobby were hard. Stay somewhere else.2016-04-19"

"The room was nice, clean, and quiet, and the bed was comfortable. The heater fan was really loud and screeched all night long. The were slushy, slippery snow on the front sidewalk and interior entryway; little shoveling had been done on sidewalks or the parking lot. The hotel clerk was ordering pizza when I entered and didn't look up, but someone else finally came to check me in. 2019-02-12"

I loved that HotelGuides helped me find a hotel. You can try to search for one yourself, but this service was so helpful. Just click on the section of the Interstate you are driving on and you see a list of hotels that actually have rooms available.
We order the hotels on this page by how close they are to this attraction.

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.
