"The motel had a bad smell, and there were roaches in our room. The bedsheets were never changed. I had to go to the front desk with the old towels to get replacements, and I still didn't get enough of them. Don't stay here.2016-09-20"

"The hotel seemed old and tired. There was only one nightstand, and it was so big that it was put in sideways. We requested a room change, which was honored. The bar was messy, and the bartender was slow and tried to get us to purchase the most expensive vodka. The food was good.2023-05-17"

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.
