"Not a pleasant experience. We didn't know the hotel was undergoing renovations, and we had to switch rooms due to problems with the AC. The 2nd room had similar issues, but we decided to stick it out. Housekeeping could've been better. The one positive was that the staff was pleasant, and the checkout clerk was apologetic. Don't stay here until renovations are complete.2018-04-19"
"The motel was dated. My stay was OK, but I'd recommend other options.2023-02-19"
"The room was clean, but it was old and in need of updating. The shower floor was level with the bathroom floor and the curtain was too short, so there was no way to keep water from the bathroom floor. No breakfast provided. I think the low rating for this motel was generous.2022-11-09"
"Not a family-oriented motel. Other guests screamed and curses throughout the night. The room was clean.2021-04-11"

"The hotel was clean and well-maintained. You won't be disappointed.2022-02-28"
"The hotel clerks weren't friendly. There was no one in the lobby, and all the lights were off at 4 PM. The exercise room was closed. No breakfast buffet because of Covid, but a 10% discount was offered for the adjacent Denny's. No water in the room or vending machines. Don't stay here.2020-12-22"

"I had a bad stay at this motel.2019-01-08"
"Walk to Premiere Outlets. Dated motel. Bring everything you need since there are few amenities in the room; no paper and pen, and the only toiletry provided was shampoo. There was an old spill on the nightstand, but the bed looked clean. The exterior door was hard to lock, and the door to the interior hallway was hard to open and close. Easy check-in and checkout. Not much selection at the continental breakfast.2015-04-04"
"I liked the clean linens, but the room seemed a bit shabby. I found a bit of debris on the floor. Check-in was straightforward. Overall, it was a good, inexpensive place to stay.2021-12-19"
"No light at the motel entrance. No breakfast, but there was an IHOP next door.2021-10-21"

The microwave was nasty, and there were spider webs in the room. There was mold in the shower, and no hair dryer. The exterior was littered with trash. Don't stay at this motel.2021-07-29"
"The AC in my motel room didn't work, and the door didn't lock properly. I had a miserable stay.2016-08-11"

"I wasn't happy with the poor water pressure in the bathroom sink, but everything else about the hotel was OK.2021-01-10"
"Conveniently located and fairly priced. The hotel was older, but the room had laminate flooring. The only chair was the desk chair. The bed was comfortable enough, but it squeaked when I moved. I wish the hallways and stairs weren't carpeted. A dog had done its business outside the side door; I told the hotel clerk, but it was never cleaned up. Because of Covid, breakfast was grab and go; we were disappointed with the offerings.2021-01-03"

"I've never been so disappointed with a hotel stay. The room was small, dark, and not that nice. Our room wasn't serviced, so the next day we were moved to another room. The toilet stopped up and even a plunger didn't help, so we were moved to a 3rd room. The staff tried to help, but it was too much. Breakfast wasn't good. Don't stay here.2021-11-08"

"The hotel lobby was dirty, and so was the entrance. There were overflowing ashtrays outside, the doors and windows needed clean, and the elevator was dirty. The room was OK, but I thought the $75 dog fee was too high. Not an appealing place; I wouldn't stay here again.2021-04-29"
"Good hotel for a short stay, but we were upset that the pool was closed. The breakfast attendant was awesome.2018-06-28"
"The key card didn't work well; it took multiple tries to get it to work. A barking dog woke us up one morning of our motel stay. The elevator was dirty.2016-07-06"
"Quiet location near the beach, stores, and restaurants. This was my 2nd stay at this motel, and both stays were quite nice. The room was clean, dog-friendly, and had everything I needed. Pleasant front desk clerks. Good breakfast.2016-01-03"

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.
