"There weren't enough outlets at the desk for my devices. The only multiple outlet was by the dresser, which wasn't near the desk. No chair in the room other than the desk chair. If you need to charge multiple devices, stay at another hotel.2019-07-01"
"A satisfactory hotel stay.2016-05-16"
"Nice hotel for the price. The room was clean and orderly. The front desk clerks were friendly and helpful, and I liked the later checkout time.2016-02-08"
"My hotel stay was fine, including the unexpected upgrade to a king suite. One of the TV remote controls didn't work, the bathroom door didn't close properly, and there was no tissue. Fortunately, the 2nd remote control worked for both TVs.2018-06-04"
"There were restaurants nearby, and a gas station and convenience store next door. This was an exceptionally clean hotel. Our room was comfortable and sanitary, and the pillows were wonderful. The front desk clerks greeted us every time they saw us, and smiled as they worked. The hot breakfast had everything we needed. We'll stay again.2016-06-21"
"Great location. The windows needed better cleaning. The hotel clerk was friendly and helpful. Breakfast ended at 9 AM.2015-04-03"
"The hotel room was nice, clean, and quiet, and the TV worked. The AC was a bit loud. The walk-in shower had a short shower curtain, so water splashed onto the floor and out the door. I was given extra towels when I told the front desk clerk. There were some loud dogs when I was there. Good continental breakfast.2022-08-03"
"The hotel room was ready earlier than expected, but I found leftover food in the fridge. Had to have the key card reactivated 3 or more times. Not enough towels provided, so we had to ask for more.2015-07-14"
"Comfortable bed with the best pillows I've encountered in a long time. The hotel staff was friendly and accommodating. Breakfast items were somewhat limited. I'd stay again.2015-06-23"

"I knew I'd made a bad decision as soon as I arrived at this hotel. The parking lot was dark and uninviting, especially for a woman traveling alone. The front desk clerk was surly and treated me as if I interrupted her cell phone call to do something trivial. There was a group of men in the lobby, and one said something inappropriate to me. The room reeked of smoke, even though it's supposedly a smoke-free property. It was musty, and the bathroom was disgusting. Breakfast was inedible. Don't stay here.2017-04-29"
"The hotel was pet-friendly. Consider staying here.2016-10-06"
"Close to restaurants. The room was nice, clean, and comfortable. Staff was friendly and helpful. I was totally satisfied with my hotel stay and wouldn't hesitate to stay again.2015-04-08"
"Hotel was clean but a little dated. Looked like renovations were underway. We had to walk down a number of hallways to get to our room. Room was large. Great bath towels. Continental breakfast was unimpressive. 2015-01-24"

"We stayed during a busy time, and the hotel was full of kids, including the pool and whirlpool; both were right in the front lobby, so there was no privacy. The room was clean, and the staff got to know us and made us feel welcome. Good food.2016-06-30"
"The cleanliness was deplorable at best. The doormat was dirty and poorly positioned. The staff appearance was unkempt, too, and they weren't friendly. Don't stay at this hotel.2016-04-21"
"Hotel wasn't well-marked, so I had trouble finding it. Room and bathroom needed better lighting. The light by the desk went off by itself after 10 minutes. The bathroom fan was noisy. Look elsewhere.2015-02-03"
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.
We order the hotels on this page by how close they are to this attraction.
Most of our competitors order these same hotels in other ways that make them more money.
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.
