"The hotel was fine, but nothing exceptional. The rates seemed high.2019-06-18"
"We've visited this hotel for 14 years and seen the renovations over time. The decor is up-to-date, but breakfast needs vast improvement and healthier options. Great happy hour, though more food options would be great. Good place for families.2017-02-20"

"Nice hotel, and within walking distance to the trolley to local attractions. The room was nicely decorated, and the beds were comfortable. Good breakfast. There was a charge for parking, though.2015-12-10"
"Located in an industrial area; not within easy walking distance of restaurants, but convenient for business travelers visiting area companies. Clean, comfortable room with a fully-equipped kitchen. Had to pay for Internet access. I had some problems with the AC, radio, and showerhead, but all were fixed within the day. The employees were courteous and attentive. Breakfast was decent, filling, and unlimited, and there was an evening happy hour with light snacks. Not a 5-star hotel, but it was comfortable and suited for extended stays.2016-08-20"
"The family loft we had wasn't that clean, and the beds weren't comfortable. We did like being able to open the window, but it didn't have a screen. The loft had ant problems. The stairs weren't clean, and there was no hot breakfast due to the virus. We won't stay here again.2020-06-28"

"The hotel was nice and clean, and I loved that pets were allowed. The staff was friendly. I did have to pay for parking. No keyed re-entry to the stairwells, so if your room is at the end of the hall, you have to go back to the elevator to re-enter.2018-09-26"
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.
