"Great location. The hotel and our room were beautiful, thought the AC was loud. There was plenty of parking. Not a lot of options at breakfast if you have a gluten or dairy-free diet.2017-09-01"

We order the hotels on this page by how close they are to this attraction.

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.
