"Good beds. The hotel staff was helpful.2019-11-11"
"The rates were affordable. The hotel room wasn't clean, and the comforter was stained. There was hair in the bathroom. We asked for a room change, but the 2nd room had a musty smell. The employees weren't rude, but they weren't overly friendly, either. The breakfast buffet was small but nice.2017-11-09"
"The hotel was quiet, which we appreciated. One of our rooms was OK, but it wasn't that clean. There was dust in the corners, and hair in the bathroom. The 2nd room had a terrible moldy smell. The carpet was dirty, and the comforter was stained. The staff wasn't that cordial. Breakfast was good and had a nice variety, and fruit was available all day. Pay more and stay somewhere cleaner.2017-11-07"

"The hotel wasn't that well-appointed, and it wasn't worth the price.2021-06-28"
"I couldn't find a coffee cup in my hotel room, and no one answered the front desk phone when I called. I finally found an employee who told me to look in the dishwasher. I found that it was full, and all the dishes were dirty. The electrical outlet in the bathroom didn't work, and the hair dryer was broken. No other hair dryer was available.2021-05-24"

"The motel was a little run-down, but renovations were underway. The sink was clogged, and maintenance wasn't on duty. The whirlpool was cold, and only one jet worked. Construction workers made a lot of noise outside at night, but the staff was helpful and pleasant. Wait until upgrades are completed before staying here.2016-10-18"
"Good rates. The motel room was older, and the bedsheets smelled like stale smoke. Nice staff and wonderful pool.2016-04-24"
"We didn't like this hotel. Our room had no soap, towels, or toilet paper, and when we called the front desk, we were told we'd have to come down to get them. The towels were in the dryer, and no one brought any up as promised. There was no remote control for the TV, and again we were told to go down to get one. Not an enjoyable stay.2019-02-05"
"Great hotel. It was a bit more expensive, but it was very nice and you get what you paid for and then some. The only problem was that our room was on the 4th floor and it was like a maze getting to it. Breakfast was good, and the evening social was nice.2017-04-16"

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.
