"We had some small issues; the smoke alarm had a white light that blinked incessantly throughout the night, and the toilet seat was broken. The hotel clerk was professional and caring; she offered us a free breakfast to compensate for the problems. Stay here.2023-10-21"
"The hotel clerk didn't tell us where the elevator was, so we walked right past it. Daily housekeeping by request only. The food pantry wasn't stocked, and there was no water to be found anywhere. The breakfast sandwiches ran out at breakfast.2021-09-20"
"New hotel near U. of A. Nice, clean accommodations.2016-06-26"
"An awful experience. Nice bed and bedding, though the comforter was torn. The hotel employees were gracious, and the food and drink selections were good. However, the room was filthy with trash, including dirty diapers piled in a corner. The phone didn't work. We were moved to another room, which wasn't much better. The coffee maker was dirty, and there was trash lying between the fridge and closet. Don't stay here.2021-06-09"

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.
