"The hotel room didn't smell clean, and it didn't have an adjustable mattress. The bed didn't look freshly made. The lobby was filled with unsupervised kids and people in bathing suits going to and from the pool. The hallway smelled like marijuana. There was hair in the whirlpool. When I complained, I was told to come back later and talk to another clerk. I ate at the on-site restaurant, but was distracted by a large gathering in the lobby being noisy.2022-05-09"

"We had a number of problems during our hotel stay. We were told to bring our luggage through the front to the elevator, so we had to pull our bags through the crowded lobby. It would've been easier to park in back and go through the back door to the elevator. The key cards didn't work on two different occasions, which was aggravating.

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.
