"Nice hotel, but the in-room phone didn't work. I liked that breakfast was available. There were several dining options within easy walking distance.2022-06-24"
"You get what you pay for. The hotel was simple and fairly clean, and the lobby was inviting. Average room, but it was quiet. The desk chair was broken and tilted when I sat in it. The carpet needed to be replaced, and we found someone's shoes under the bed. Housekeeping only made one bed the 2nd day. Carb-heavy breakfast. There was only one, slow elevator. Go with low expectations and you won't be disappointed.2017-11-19"

"The motel was pretty loud, and the bed was uncomfortable. Don't stay here.2023-06-26"
"The room didn't look like online photos, and I didn't like the floral wallpaper. The busy decor made it hard to relax. The temperature control switches didn't work, but maintenance came right away and fixed them. The carpet was worn and needed vacuuming, and there were cobwebs in the corners of the ceiling. When I told the front desk clerk that the key card wasn't working, I was told that the hotel was booked solid. People smoked marijuana right outside my room. Don't stay here.2023-05-29"

I loved that HotelGuides helped me find a hotel. You can try to search for one yourself, but this service was so helpful. Just click on the section of the Interstate you are driving on and you see a list of hotels that actually have rooms available.
On place pages like this, we order hotels from lowest cost to highest – except we list low-rated hotels at the bottom of the page.
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.
