"The key card reader for our room didn't work, and the hotel clerk left us sitting in the lobby before calling maintenance. There was hair int the shower, and mildew on the shower curtain. The coffee maker didn't work. The pool area was hot and muggy; the water was yellow, and the whirlpool was broken and smelled horrible. The breakfast bar was awful.2016-07-17"
"Great rates. The hotel was clean, and the room was big and well-kept. The lobby was inviting, and check-in went smoothly despite a grumpy clerk who made us feel like a nuisance. The pool looked dirty, and the whirlpool was too hot. Overall, we were happy with our stay.2016-07-27"
"Close to the Water Works Park. We stayed in 5 hotels in the area during our 2-week stay, and this was by far the best. I called and requested an early check-in, and the front desk clerk made it happen. The room was beautiful an spacious, with room for all 5 of us. The beds were comfortable, and it was quiet at night. Great continental breakfast with delicious Belgian waffles. The only downside was that the indoor pool room was small and humid. I highly recommend this hotel.2016-07-02"
"The hotel room was nice and clean, and the staff was friendly. Good continental breakfast. Nice deli just down the street.2016-06-07"
"Right off the interstate. Even though we were in the back of the building by the freeway, the room was well-insulated and blocked most of the noise. Clean room with good WiFi. The motel clerk was friendly and welcoming; she applied my AAA discount and upgraded me to a handicap room at my request. Good customer service and Covid protocols. 2021-01-27"

"The hotel was inviting and comfortable. When the check-in clerk found out we were there to celebrate our anniversary, he gave us a $40 voucher for the restaurant.2021-03-21"
"Not a great value. The hotel was run-down, and neither the restaurant nor bar were open. The mattress was old and uncomfortable; I had a hard time sleeping. The AC worked well, at least. The front desk clerks were OK.2020-08-21"
"We've stayed at this hotel many times in the last 20 years, but we were disappointed that it hasn't been well-maintained recently. Our handicap room wasn't near an exit door, and it didn't feel fresh. The hallway carpet wasn't clean, and the room carpet needed to be replaced. The sink faucet leaked onto the counter, and the bathroom needed a total makeover. The floor times and grout were dirty, and the hand-held showerhead wouldn't stay in its holder. The best thing about our stay was the warm welcome we received from the check-in clerk.2020-05-25"

"The hotel clerk was behind plexiglass but wasn't wearing a mask. No contact-less check-in. The lobby floor was dirty. The exhaust fan in the bathroom never stopped running.

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.
