"Good location. The hotel room was nice, but the 1st floor was like a basement. Breakfast wasn't that good. No elevator, and the luggage cart was being used by staff when I was leaving.2015-05-24"
"Close to the lake, and the grounds were nice. The hotel was old and smelled musty. The room was humid, and the carpet needed to be replaced. The trees blocked my view of the lake. I probably wouldn't stay here again.2016-04-16"

"I enjoyed my stay and recommend this motel.2017-10-04"
"We were happy to stay with our dog, but our pet-friendly room didn't smell good. The mattress wasn't that comfortable, but other than that, our stay was fine. Ask for a room away from the highway.2017-09-25"
"The motel had roaches. Don't stay here.2017-06-13"

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.
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.
