"The motel was close to the beach and some restaurants. The coffee was expired; I asked for new coffee, and got more expired coffee. There were holes in the floor under the carpet.2022-07-13"

"This was my 2nd stay at this hotel. It was so nice, clean, and comfortable, and the check-in clerk was accommodating. The room had everything I needed, and I loved the bedsheets and pillows. There was a lovely observation deck on the 6th floor to watch the sunset, and a small bar area by the lobby. Excellent breakfast prices. Ice water and coffee were available in the lobby. Easy parking. Great place; I'd stay here again.2018-11-03"

"Everything was fine but the sofa bed; I could feel the springs in the mattress, even when we put it on the floor. We had to ask for extra towels every day since there were 5 of us and we were only given enough for 3 people.2019-01-22"
"Close to the military ball, but we had a terrible stay at this motel. It's not a pretty place, and many of the rooms were being renovated. The staff was nice, but that was it. The room smelled like cat urine and cigarettes, so we had to air it out. Decent bed, but not enough electrical outlets nearby. There was no hot water for showers, and since it was cold outside, it was horrible having to shower in cold water. Noisy guests woke us up repeatedly. The laundry room was gross. This was the worst place I've ever stayed.2015-12-07"

"Great experience. The hotel was right next door to the train station, so if their horns bother you, don't stay here. The check-in clerk was helpful and professional, even though I didn't arrive until 10 PM. The room was spacious and had a sofa, desk, and king bed. I loved how clean it was, and it had good energy. 2019-07-07"
"The hotel room was nicely appointed, but I was quite disappointed that our room was right next to the train tracks. Trains blew their horns right as they went past our window. Only stay in rooms on the beach side.2016-08-19"

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.
We order the hotels on this page by how close they are to this attraction.
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.
