"A terrible experience. Some hotel employees wore masks, but others didn't. When we got to our room, we noticed white paint all over the floor. The floors hadn't been mopped, the TV was on, and there was dirt in the corners of the bathroom. The wardrobe handles were on the inside, and we were never told that there was a coffee maker and hangers inside. The bathroom sink was clogged. Housekeeping woke me up vacuuming at 6:30 AM. No breakfast because of Covid. I was uncomfortable just going to my car because of the unsavory people hanging out in the parking lot. Don't stay here.2020-07-06"

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.
