"Easy to access and close to shops. The hotel was nice and quiet, but not cleaning rooms each day is getting old.2021-11-03"

"The bed was heavenly, and there were plenty of electrical outlets. There was a bar and bistro. I was greeted nicely by the hotel clerks. My grandson asked about the pool, and the clerk took us to see it and explained about the salt water and towels. It was a delight to stay here.2019-07-03"
"Check-in at this hotel is a pain even though we stay regularly.2023-09-29"
"Check-in was OK, but there was some confusion about a security deposit. The hotel room was freezing, and we found a baby gecko in the bathroom. I saw 2 roaches in there at night, one on the vanity counter approaching my toothbrush. It was unnerving to say the least.2022-11-10"

"The room door had to be slammed to close. No hot water.I don't recommend this hotel.2020-08-17"

"The hotel staff was generally pleasant. There was a problem with the exit door, and they told me to walk around the building. A sign on the door would've helped.2018-05-22"
"The hotel room was clean, the staff was friendly, and breakfast was good. Coffee was available 24 hours a day. This was a good choice.2017-03-23"
"The hotel smelled like cigarettes. The suite was perfect for a good stay, and had a full kitchen. Unfortunately, it wasn't clean. The trash can was full, and there was hair on the towels. There was old food in the fridge. The staff was rude.2022-08-08"
"A broken dresser door in the room almost fell on my foot. The hotel clerk was pleasant.2019-08-15"
"The room wasn't that clean, and neither was the hotel lobby. No coffee cups in the morning; there was a sign that they'd run out.2016-03-24"
"We were shocked at how depressing the room was. There was no color whatsoever. The bed didn't have a skirt or comforter. The carpet had rough edges that were a tripping hazard, and the lock on the room door was upside-down. The front desk clerk didn't speak English well, making communication stressful. Find a different hotel.2023-03-22"
"Not a good hotel stay this time. The power partially went out at 6 PM and was still out when we checked out the next day. We couldn't use the TV or WiFi, and only one light worked. The emergency lights in the stairwell didn't work. No coffee or breakfast available. Good place to stay when the power is on.2022-10-06"

"Convenient to the airport, and within walking distance of a bar and restaurant where you can sit outdoors. The room was clean and everything worked. Beautiful view of the bay.

"I stayed during the hurricane, and the power was out when I arrived. The employees were handing out flashlights. The power was back on when I returned from dinner. The hotel was nice and had beautiful views of the bay. Pleasant check-in. The bartender wasn't the most friendly guy, and at closing time the staff turned on bright lights so we couldn't even enjoy relaxing in the lobby.2016-10-10"

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.
