"The motel was convenient and clean, and it had a nice, safe little dog park.2017-07-27"
"The key card reader for my motel room didn't work, and the maintenance worker was unable to fix it. I requested another room and was told they all had the same problem. I cancelled my stay and went elsewhere.2016-12-13"
"The motel room was clean and spacious, and the desk area was just right. The only problem was that the showerhead was too low for a tall person. The breakfast area opened early and was quite nice. I was pleasantly surprised and would stay here again.2016-03-07"

"The hotel was fine in general, but the AC cycling was really annoying and made it hard to sleep.2015-12-30"
"The hotel was mostly fine, but the fitness room wasn't cleaned for a few days, the carpet was dirty, and there were no towels. There was no hot water for tea in the lobby except at breakfast, and the coffee pot was sometimes empty. No silverware, either.2015-12-29"
"I've stayed at this hotel 3 times, and it's fine. The beds were comfortable, and there was a nice variety of pillows. Good towels, and the hand towel and washcloth were set out to look like a shirt and tie. The bathroom floor could've been cleaner, and there were lipstick marks on the coffee mugs. The checkout clerk was pleasant, but didn't thank us for staying.2016-03-21"

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.
