"We walked into our room and turned on the heater, but nothing happened. The front desk clerk told us to turn it on high for 30 minutes, and if it still didn't work, we could change rooms. The TV in the front room didn't work, and the remote control for the TV in the bedroom didn't work, either. The room never warmed up, and the checkout clerk seemed unconcerned. If you stay at this motel, don't unpack until you're sure the heater works.2017-04-30"
"Great experience. We booked 3 rooms for 3 families with kids. They enjoyed the pool while the adults had a leisurely get-together. hotel guests and staff were friendly. Everything from check-in to checkout was uncomplicated. Highly recommend.2016-07-04"
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.
On place pages like this, we order hotels from lowest cost to highest – except we list low-rated hotels at the bottom of the page.
Most of our competitors order these same hotels in other ways that make them more money.
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.
