"The motel room was clean and comfortable, and the housekeeping did a great job. Breakfast was good. I highly recommend staying here.2018-10-15"
"Room had a strong smell of air freshener, though it wasn't unpleasant. We could hear the drive-through at the restaurant across the parking lot. Motel staff was friendly. Good breakfast.2015-03-17"
"Coffee service area in the room wasn't clean. Bathroom was dirty; there was hair in the bathtub and on the ceiling, and used towels still in the room. Men talked on their phones outside our room until late at night. No hand soap at the sink for the breakfast attendant to use. Find another place to stay.2015-01-24"

"The hotel had a great view. The valet parking was expensive.2023-01-30"
"The hotel room needed some repairs, and a lightbulb was burned out. Some of the towels smelled bad, the toilet seat was loose, and the toilet paper dispenser was falling off the wall. The entry door was hard to open and close. Food and drinks were overpriced. Excellent personnel, but I don't recommend staying here.2016-11-25"
"Convenient to the cruise port. The hotel was nice, and the staff was friendly. Go for it.2016-11-10"
"Just a few hundred yards from Bern's Steakhouse. This hotel exceeded our expectations. The room was modern and extremely clean. The bedsheets were so soft. Only had valet parking, and it cost $15 per day.2015-08-26"
"The trolley stop to Ybor City was just outside the hotel, so it was just 10 minutes from entertainment. Nice waterfront sidewalk nearby, and just across the street from Amalie Arena. Our newly-remodeled room was beautiful, and the hardwood flooring was a nice change from hotel carpeting. All the employees we encountered were helpful, cheerful, and went out of their way to help us. The pool area was quite hip and cosmopolitan, though it was closed when there was lightning in the area. The breakfast buffet was delicious and plentiful, and both indoor and outdoor seating was available. There was also an on-site Starbucks.2018-10-06"
"Nice hotel and room. Great common area and pool. We were especially impressed with the dining room food and service.2017-03-03"
"OK hotel, but nothing over the top. I was charged for an early check-in, then was charged 3 times for parking when we didn't have a car.2016-11-08"
"The carpet in my hotel room was sticky and needed to be replaced. The breakfast area was crowded, and the coffee ran out at one point. Still, I had a pleasant stay overall.2017-01-02"
"Not worth the price. The hotel room was falling apart and didn't look clean. I was put in a handicap room, which wasn't requested. Don't have high expectations.2023-01-02"
"The hotel was in a busy area, so the noise level on weekends was an issue late at night. The exterior and interior looked great. Clean room with a comfortable bed. Breakfast prices at the on-site restaurant were outrageous, but there was an on-site Starbucks with energetic employees. No airport shuttle, so I used Super Shuttle. If you like to spend money, this is the place to stay.2019-01-16"
"The room was clean, and the hotel staff was nice, polite, and helpful. Stay here.2018-10-15"
"The hotel entrance area wasn't well-maintained. The lobby was dirty, with soiled carpeting and torn curtains. The room smelled like sweat, and I found it was from the comforter. I wouldn't stay here again.2022-08-18"

"Worth every penny. The hotel was immaculate, and all the employees were nice. Stay here.2016-08-12"
"Not worth the price. Room was a modernized dorm room, and was extremely small. No information about amenities or TV channel guide available. Front desk clerk was clueless about what TV channels were offered. Valet parking attendants left car keys sitting unattended on a bench. Employee vehicles blocked the entrance, so I had to park on the street and walk to the hotel to have my car valet parked. When I called later to complain, I couldn't even get an answer from the front desk or manager. I'll never stay again.2015-02-19"

HotelGuides has won my confidence as a booking experience that is seamless and simple enough for a consumer who does not venture online much. It is now my starting place for fast, secure, carefree booking.
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.
