"About a 45-minute walk from downtown, and there was nothing in the area. My king marina view room was amazing. However, I asked for a room change the 2nd night because of a crying baby in the room next door and ended up in a room above the front door of the hotel facing the street. Wonderful hotel clerks and manager.2022-03-11"

"Good experience. The hotel was close to the airport and downtown, and was easy to find. The room was nice and clean. The staff was friendly and pre-checked us in and stored our luggage after we got off the cruise ship. Nice walks in the area. I didn't like the grab and go breakfast.2022-01-18"

"From the airport shuttle to the hotel, all the employees were so nice, and the property was clean. The shuttle took us everywhere we needed to go, and the drivers were informative.

"Don't expect any bells or whistles at this hotel. Convenient to MCRD, but there was a spiked fence around the lattice fence surrounding the upstairs balcony. The room reminded me of military barracks. The staff was friendly. Be careful leaving the parking garage; the incline scraped the bottom of my car. OK if you're budget-minded, but don't stay here if you want semi-luxury.2017-09-20"

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.
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.
