"The motel room was disgusting. The paint was peeling, and the bedding was filthy. The walls were dirty. The bathtub wasn't clean, and the grab bars were broken. Don't stay here; just because remodeling is underway isn't an excuse for not cleaning.2016-12-22"
"Located in a safe, decent area. You get what you pay for here. The hotel had been recently remodeled, and the room had good soundproofing. One lightbulb was burned out, and wasn't replaced even after we notified the front desk. The clerks were otherwise helpful. The housekeeper never left enough towels for our family of 4. Everything else was acceptable. Ask for a room away from the highway.2015-08-06"
"Conveniently located. I've stayed at this motel several times. Everything was fine until I saw that the bathtub had hair and scum in it, and didn't drain well. I told the staff about the issue and wasn't charged for the night.2015-03-19"
"I didn't feel comfortable or safe at this motel. There were people sitting around outside my room, so I felt uneasy coming and going. I didn't enjoy the BBQ smoke and the unkempt dogs. Don't stay here.2021-08-10"
"The hotel was quiet; we had our dog with us, and there was no noise to wake up. Loved the kitchen facilities, but some there weren't enough bowls or spoons. The 24-hour coffee was a real bonus. I definitely recommend staying here.2017-09-01"
"I had difficulty checking in. When I finally got to my hotel room, the bed looked like it had been slept in, and there was a hair on the pillow.2021-04-07"

"Convenient to the beach. The decor was dated, but the hotel was clean and decent. The door didn't lock securely unless is was pulled hard, and I had to get new key cards every day. The front desk clerks weren't familiar with the area and were unable to recommend dining or shopping locations. They didn't answer the phone and didn't wear masks despite signs saying masks were required. The pool was clean and well-maintained. Coffee and water were available, and there were vending and ice machines, but they only took cash. No major stores or restaurants nearby; Meijer's was 5 miles away, and Walmart was 10 miles away.2020-07-27"
"This was the best Super 8 hotel I've stayed in. The room was clean, updated, and spacious. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.2018-07-24"
"Close to the expressway and the University of ND. Not far from gas stations and some fast-food restaurants. The hotel was basic and clean, though a few more towels would've been nice. Breakfast was minimal but fine for my needs.2017-11-09"
"The hotel was hard to spot. The room smelled a bit musty until we turned on the AC. The bed was OK, and the linens were clean. The elevator floor was dirty. If you need to save money, this place will suit your needs.2016-10-05"
"OK hotel, but it needed updating. Very nice staff, but we were initially given an already-occupied room. We weren't notified that the elevator wasn't working Sunday morning. Decent breakfast buffet, though the fruit looked a little tired.2019-09-30"

"As a single woman, I didn't feel comfortable at this hotel. A drunk man bothered me in the hallway. Lots of traffic in the parking lot.2015-09-01"
"Room didn't look like it had been cleaned; bedding looked slept in - queen beds seemed small - toilet paper roll was almost empty, and there was no extra roll - room was cleaned our 2nd day, but the smell of cleaning products was overwhelming - only one small bar of soap provided, and housekeeper forgot ours; I had to go to the front desk to get soap and shampoo - no bath mat - towels were thin, and we only got two - no hair dryer, drinking cups, or tissue provided - this place was beyond inadequate.2012-10-01"

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.
