"The motel didn't provide daily housekeeping service; all we got was clean towels.2020-11-04"
"The motel was well-maintained and better than I expected. The room was clean and spacious and had newer, quality furniture. Good climate control on a hot day. The power outlets were easy to access. The hair dryer was hidden in a cloth bag hung in the closet. The hot breakfast was decent but not generous, and guests had to wait for items to be replenished. Good coffee. I'd stay here again. Limited food options in town; I recommend The Grill.2019-06-28"

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.
