"A 20-minute walk to the hospital. The room was plain but decent, and the bed was comfortable. No carpeting, which was fine with me. I'd asked for a smoking room, but got a smoke-free room. My request for an early check-in was denied. I waited 20 minutes for the office to open. The motel clerk was rude and even asked for my credit card PIN; I had to shield the numbers with my hand. I was charged a $200 security fee because I paid with a debit card. The checkout clerk was pleasant, and there was an employee who was gracious and made my stay better.2021-01-29"

"Easy to access from the freeway. The hotel was clean and quiet. I had a basic room with minimal extras. Easy check-in, friendly staff, and adequate information was provided. Limited continental breakfast. I did smell marijuana in the hall one day. The parking lot didn't leave much room to maneuver when it was full, and customers of the bar next door gathered in the hotel parking lot. I expected more for the price.2018-06-12"

"My first impression was good. The room was nice and clean, with a big, comfortable bed and clean bathroom. Good breakfast. Parking cost $15 per night. I was moved to another room my 2nd day, and it wasn't what I expected. The carpet was old and dirty, and the fridge was noisy and kept me awake. The bathtub faucet was kind of hard to turn. Good hotel overall.2024-01-21"

"The motel was undergoing much-needed renovations. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable, but the grounds weren't that nice and the construction noise was loud. Friendly, helpful personnel. Great place to crash, but not a place to hang out during the day.2018-04-15"
"The hotel was clean, and the employees were friendly. Nice, tasty hot breakfast. We asked for a late checkout, and the check-in clerk said it shouldn't be a problem.

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.
