"The family loft we had wasn't that clean, and the beds weren't comfortable. We did like being able to open the window, but it didn't have a screen. The loft had ant problems. The stairs weren't clean, and there was no hot breakfast due to the virus. We won't stay here again.2020-06-28"

The room was nice, but no information was provided about where amenities were; I had to find someone to ask about the location of the ice machine and restaurant. The bar staff was nice and friendly, and the service was great.2019-04-13"

"Great rates. We checked in on a rainy, blustery day. The check-in clerk upgraded us to a room facing the ocean, which was much appreciated.

"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"

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.
