"The motel had seen better days, and we didn't feel safe because the area seemed deserted. The office and lobby were under renovation, and the front desk was housed in a trailer. The room itself was clean and newly renovated. The grab and go breakfast was ridiculous, and the dining choices in the area were dismal. Keep driving.2018-10-23"

"The motel staff was great, but the room was not. There were a lot of sketchy people in the parking lot. The continental breakfast was just coffee and a store-bought muffin or doughnut. Find a better option.2023-07-24"

"An OK motel for a short stay. Close to the freeway, but it was remarkably quiet. Farnesi's restaurant was adjacent. Our room was clean and had been recently refurbished. The linens were spotless and high-quality. The bathroom was huge, but it took a long time for the water to get hot. The front desk clerk was friendly. Smoking rooms were available. We were pleased and would stay here again.2022-04-26"

A bar tab was mistakenly put on our bill, but the clerk took care of it and got back to me promptly. We used room service for breakfast, dinner, and dessert. The wait staff was friendly and had great attitudes.2022-01-05"

"Not in a great part of town; there were a lot of sketchy people roaming the area. The hotel was noisy. The room smelled like smoke, and a baby cried all night in the next room. One of the locks on the front door didn't work. The front desk clerks were friendly and helpful. Don't stay here.2021-07-31"

I’ve been using HotelGuides for over 8 years. The agents are very helpful, and they try to accommodate every request. I like that when they email a booking confirmation to you, they include the hotel's address as well as its interstate exit number.
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.
