"There were too many decorative pillows on the bed, which we had to remove for sleeping. The parking fee was ridiculous, and there was no elevator from parking to the lobby; had to climb stairs. Find another hotel - this one wasn't worth the price.2015-06-26"

"The location can't be beat. I could walk right into Stanley Park and walk to the beach across the street. Plenty of wonderful restaurants, pubs, shops, and art in the area. The hotel was old but nicely restored, and the beds were super comfortable. Lovely food at the restaurant. Free underground parking. Next time I'll book the English Bayview room. If you're on a budget, get a room with a kitchenette that faces away from the bay.2015-09-16"

"Short walk to the entertainment district and restaurants. We arrived at the hotel early, but the check-in clerk went out of her way to find us a room that was available right away. She was pleasant, efficient, and personable. The room was spacious and attractive, with floor-to-ceiling windows and an extremely comfortable bed. The bellboys were efficient and friendly, and hailed us a cab to the pier within minutes. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.2016-09-28"

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.
