"This motel was the worst. Armed guards patrolled, and the clientele was sketchy. The room was nasty and dirty. The comforter and bedsheets in my smoke-free room had cigarette burns, and so did the bathtub. We didn't even want to shower. Don't stay here.2021-09-18"
"The motel didn't accept cash payments. Don't stay here.2021-04-13"
"My experience was horrible. A male employee entered my room at 10:30 PM; when he saw that I wasn't alone, he ran out. I was frightened and shaken by the experience. Don't stay here.2020-03-12"
"I didn't like this motel. We didn't get rooms next to each other as requested, and I didn't like being given a handicap room. The door didn't close properly, the AC didn't adequately cool the room, the bathroom door didn't close, and the curtains were falling down. Don't stay here.2019-10-23"
"I expected a better motel for the price. The room door didn't close properly, the curtains were falling down, and the bathroom door didn't close. The fridge didn't work well. Find another place to stay.2019-10-21"
"No TV remote control in my room, so I couldn't turn on the TV. The motel clerk said I'd just have to tough it out. Don't stay here.2020-09-15"
"Not a great neighborhood. Motel was dirty, and so was the bathroom. Unsavory characters were hanging out on the premises throughout the day, and were sitting on the stair landing in front of our room at 2 AM being loud and rude. Front desk clerk was nice and polite. Stay somewhere else.2015-03-03"
"Our motel room was so disgusting and unsanitary that we cleaned it ourselves. The bedding didn't look clean, so we used our own. Other guests exposed our children to misbehavior and vulgar language, and the motel staff seemed unconcerned. We were very disappointed with this motel stay.2014-11-01"
"I stay at this hotel whenever I'm in town. Get your parking ticket validated right after you get your parking spot; I waited until I left, and ended up having to spend $15 for an overnight stay.2023-12-06"
"I got an accessible room as requested, but it was a rather long walk down the hallway. The hotel clerk was polite and helpful. I've stayed here multiple times, and the service is always good. No on-site parking, but there's plenty of parking about a block away.2022-12-25"
"This was the worst stay I've had. The hotel was dirty and had bugs. Don't stay here.2021-08-30"
"A horrible, roach-infested, smelly hotel. There were shady people partying in the parking lot. The customer service was poor. Don't stay here.2021-05-26"
"There were dead bugs in the bottom cabinets, and there were live roaches. The room needed better cleaning. The hotel seemed understaffed, and the customer service was horrible. People hung out in the parking lot partying. Don't stay here.2021-05-23"
"The hotel smelled like animals. The fridge in my room was full from a previous guest, and there was mold all over the shower. I requested a late checkout because my flight was delayed, but when I checked out, the clerk was rude and charged me extra. Stay somewhere else.2019-10-19"
"The hotel was low-class. I was initially given the wrong room, so I had to return to the front desk. The heater in the 2nd room didn't work, and there were problems with the key card and fridge. The decor was outdated, and the carpet was wrinkled. The room had a coffee maker, tiny microwave, and small fridge, but there were no kitchen utensils. The elevators didn't work well, and one was shut down. The manager was never available, though the front desk clerks did their best to address my complaints. I was never told about hotel amenities, and stumbled upon the exercise room the last day of my stay. I wouldn't stay here for more than a day or two. Not many restaurants nearby.2020-01-01"
"The hotel was within walking distance of the VA hospital, and close to the light rail Osborn/Central stop to the airport. The room was pricey considering that breakfast wasn't complimentary. 2019-11-27"
"The hotel room was clean, and the staff was great.2019-10-18"
"Not a great area; I didn't feel safe. Not a good value, either. The room was mediocre and not that clean, and the bath towels were stained. The hallway smelled like cigarette smoke and cheap perfume. There was only one hotel clerk, who was rude when I complained.2019-04-08"
"This hotel was terrible, and I didn't like that dogs were there. The room had an odor, the bed was more like a cot, and the bedsheets were dirty. The hallways smelled like marijuana. I checked out early. Don't stay here.2018-02-14"
"The bathtub dripped so loudly we could hear it even with the bathroom door shut. I told the hotel clerk, but it wasn't fixed and we weren't offered another room. Other than that, the staff was friendly and helpful.2017-03-20"

"I wasn't happy that the hotel charged a parking fee, and the only handicap room was already booked. No safety bars, and the toilet was too low. There were only 6 handicap parking spots, making it hard to unload our equipment. Don't stay here if you need handicap-accessible facilities.2024-01-24"
"The room had dirty walls and ceiling. The elevator was slow and banged against something as it went up and down. Don't stay at this hotel.2021-04-26"
"The hotel was clean, and the employees were excellent. Book it.2021-04-10"
"The room was clean, but the AC didn't work, and we didn't get a 1st floor room as requested. I waited with other guests for over 30 minutes before someone turned up at the front desk at 8:30 PM. No apology for the delay, and the clerk took a personal call during my check-in, so my questions were ignored. Nice breakfast, but the attendant kept pushing gloves at us before we'd made any choices. 2022-09-01"
"Just a place to sleep and shower. The hotel was located in a bad area. The stairway was never cleaned. The pool area was littered with cigarette butts; the pool was ice-cold, and the whirlpool was boiling hot.2021-03-28"
"The room was comfortable, and the AC worked well. The bed was adequate, but it was a bit soft for me. Breakfast was in a bag, but had a sandwich that could be heated in a microwave. I recommend this hotel.2020-11-20"
"The hotel was infested with cockroaches, and the carpet turned our feet black. Only 1 of the 2 beds had a blanket. The stove was broken. The dresser wasn't level, so the drawers wouldn't stay closed. Young people were openly using drugs, and it smelled horrible by the elevator. Don't stay here.2021-06-02"
"The hotel room smelled strongly of cigarette smoke. The stove was falling apart, and the bedsheets were stained.2020-09-13"
"This was such an awful hotel, and the service was the worst. Don't stay here.2016-03-16"
"Convenient to St. Joseph Hospital. The hotel was clean and quiet, and the staff was friendly and helpful. They greeted us every time they saw us. We were able to have breakfast and dinner and relax in the evenings.2021-04-17"
"The 1st room was disgusting and reeked of smoke. We were moved to another room the next day, and it was amazing. The hotel clerk went above and beyond to make up for the 1st night. Everything was fine until we ordered room service; my husband's carrot cake had mold in it. The employees in the eating area were incredibly rude and yelled at me when I asked for a cup of coffee and then offered to get it myself. Don't stay here.2016-12-04"
"The hotel was decent, though the price seemed a little high. There was an issue with the toilet, which wasn't properly bolted to the floor. 2019-02-13"

"The hotel was fairly clean and well-kept. Good place to stay.2016-03-29"

"A top-notch hotel. All our needs were taken care of. My husband is in a wheelchair, and the staff made sure he was comfortable. All the employees were so kind. A wonderful place to stay.2023-09-07"
"Good hotel for a short stay. It was quiet, and the beds were comfortable. Breakfast wasn't wonderful. Parking was limited, even though it wasn't free.2023-08-02"

"The hotel room needed upgrading. The floor tiles were coming up, and I saw a few small roaches under the fridge. No daily housekeeping. Great security. Unfortunately, I don't recommend staying here.2017-10-17"
"An acceptable hotel.2017-02-20"
"The beds were uncomfortable. Stay at another hotel.2016-03-28"
"An older hotel in a noisy area by I-10. The traffic noise sounded like a racetrack by my room. There was a sticky stain on the carpet, and the top sheet was missing from the bed. The pool was in the shade. I was here for a professional class, and our water and snacks were removed before our break, so we had to buy water from the machine. The only restaurants nearby were McDonald's, Burger King, and one great Mexican place. The hotel diner had irregular hours and slow service; it was often closed. I wouldn't stay here again.2021-05-05"
"The service was excellent, and I liked that I didn't have to leave the hotel to get breakfast.2020-09-30"
"Great choice. The hotel room was clean, and the service was good. We really enjoyed our stay.2020-06-28"
"The hotel location was seedy, and there were homeless people in the area. Poor breakfast. The orange juice machine dispensed clear water, and the apples weren't fresh. Don't stay here.2022-03-13"
"Nice hotel in a good location. Good quality for a good price.2021-12-23"
"The rooms were spotless and comfortable. The hotel clerk remembered us from our stay last month. The pool was a popular place until the 10 PM closing time, so avoid rooms on the lower floor if quiet is important to you. Breakfast was especially well-stocked, and included real scrambled eggs and crispy bacon. Plenty of nice restaurants in the area; Papadeaux is our favorite.2022-07-17"
"Convenient location. The room was clean and well-appointed, and the beds were comfortable and had a good selection of pillows. The cleaning products used by housekeeping had a strong odor. The hotel staff was gracious, and accommodated our requests for early check-in and a 1st floor room. The complimentary breakfast had a good variety of food, and the eating area was spotless. The attendant was gracious and fun to talk to. All the employees were exceptionally pleasant and helpful.2022-06-25"
"The hotel was clean and orderly. I liked the open floor plan, and the lobby was inviting and cozy. The front desk clerks were exceptional; anything we needed was handled quickly and professionally. They even gave us directions and took the time to chat with us and make us feel welcome. I've already recommended this place to others.2018-06-29"
"Good location near malls and restaurants. This hotel is worth a stay. I arrived late, but the front desk clerk was pleasant, and my 2-bedroom suite was the best room I've ever stayed in. The staff was pleasant and professional. Book a room here.2019-10-19"
"Our suite was spacious and clean, and the hotel breakfast was quite good.2019-08-26"

"Close to Barrow Brain and Spine. The hotel room was clean and had everything we needed. It was smoke-free and had a king-sized bed. The employees were helpful. The surrounding area wasn't great; be careful going out at night.2021-12-06"
"Lots of restaurants and shops nearby. The hotel was nice and clean, and our handicap room was comfortable> The bathroom light was burned out. Despite signs about wearing masks, we were the only ones doing so. Not even the front desk clerk wore a mask. 2021-06-20"
"Most of the hotel amenities were unavailable because of Covid, including the pool, exercise room, and breakfast. There was hair in the shower, and the room smelled like fried food. The check-in staff wasn't friendly and seemed in a hurry to end their shift. Don't stay here.2021-05-03"
"The hotel was showing its age a bit, but I still give it high marks. Good value and an overall terrific experience. The breakfast buffet wasn't free, and there were issues with the elevator near my room, but I highly recommend staying here.2019-04-30"
"The hotel staff was great. Try the restaurant.2018-05-08"
"The hotel was clean and the staff was friendly. I booked the wrong dates by mistake and showed up a week early, but they accommodated me. Nice experience.2015-10-27"
"The hotel was quiet. The room was adequate and appeared clean, and the beds were comfortable. Friendly, accommodating staff. The hallways and carpets were grubby, though, and the room decor and kitchenette were outdated. There was a lot of dust, and some items were greasy. No housekeeping service. Minimal free breakfast. It was fine for a couple of days.2021-04-21"
"Clean hotel with great staff. Good breakfast and evening social. My only complaint was that the ice maker was slow, and the ice tasted funny. The front desk clerk would get us some on request, though.2019-01-04"
"The hotel was exquisite. I had a good stay.2018-05-07"
"The motel was older. The room was pretty clean, but it was cold and there was no heater, and the blanket was thin. No TV remote control. I heard a lot of noise late at night.2020-01-14"
"The surrounding area wasn't nice. No remote control for the TV. Other guests yelled at me in the parking lot for no reason. Not a good motel stay.2016-04-11"
HotelGuides made it easy to choose a hotel based on how far we wanted to get that day. Also liked being able to see the interstate interchange on the map to determine how far off the highway each hotel was.

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.
