"Located in an industrial area; not within easy walking distance of restaurants, but convenient for business travelers visiting area companies. Clean, comfortable room with a fully-equipped kitchen. Had to pay for Internet access. I had some problems with the AC, radio, and showerhead, but all were fixed within the day. The employees were courteous and attentive. Breakfast was decent, filling, and unlimited, and there was an evening happy hour with light snacks. Not a 5-star hotel, but it was comfortable and suited for extended stays.2016-08-20"

"Pleasant neighborhood near shopping centers and restaurants. The hotel was quiet, comfortable, and conveniently located. Poor TV reception. The roll-in shower was fine for someone in a wheelchair, but the sink was set too far back and the toilet seat wasn't elevated. The grab bars were fine.2016-09-15"

Breakfast was so bad I wouldn't feed it to a dog. The elevator didn't work. Don't stay at this motel.2019-12-31"

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.
