"I got a room on the 3rd floor overlooking the noisy air conditioners. There were crickets galore on the balconies, and work going on in the area my entire stay. The front desk clerk was a bit unfriendly, and seemed irritated when I asked him questions. Be aware of the parking fee.2015-08-04"

"The motel reeked of sewage, which backed up into the sink and made our room smell awful. The bathroom was inoperable. We checked out. The front desk clerk offered us $18 to compensate us for parking. Don't stay here.2016-12-14"

"I had a good hotel stay. The room was clean, and the food was OK. I heard a lot of street noise in my beach-side room. All the employees were helpful, and the breakfast attendant kept the area clean and well-stocked.2018-04-08"
"Prime location across from the harbor, restaurants, and fishing boats. Not worth the price, though. The hotel room wasn't ready on time, and the lobby was chaotic at check-in time. The AC vent in the ceiling of our room dripped water onto the carpet. The bed was uncomfortable, and there was a gap at the bottom of the door that let in light and noise. No AC in the hallways and elevators, so they smelled musty. Parking was free. Rooms with 2 queen beds seemed to have the best views.2016-08-03"
"Room was comfortable. Hotel clerks were friendly and helpful. The airport shuttle didn't start running until 7 AM, so if you have an early flight, you might want to stay somewhere else.2015-03-17"

"I wasn't informed that the hotel was under renovation, and renovation is an understatement. The entire property was a maze, and there was clutter everywhere. Stay elsewhere.2015-11-12"
"Construction noise woke us up in the morning. The phone had no dial tone, and the toilet backed up. We did get a significant discount because of the problems, though. This hotel should be a nice place to stay once construction is complete.2015-11-10"

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.
