"Average hotel stay. The front desk clerks didn't seem to care about guests, and the cab service to the port and back was terrible. It was late taking us to our cruise ship, and we waited over an hour for it to pick us up when we returned to port.2015-07-24"

"The hotel had roaches and bedbugs. Don't stay here.2022-05-15"
"The hotel was close to JAXPORT, but it was located in a bad area. There was no one at the front desk when we arrived, but eventually the clerk appeared and checked us in without enthusiasm. The hotel looked new, but the room wasn't nice and didn't look like online photos.2015-08-20"
"This hotel was absolutely awful. Our room door was open when we arrived. There were cigarette burns in the comforter, and a grocery bag over the light fixture above the bed. All the furniture was broken. People smoked marijuana in the parking lot. We left 10 minutes after checking in because I didn't feel safe.2022-06-23"
"No ice bucket in the room. There were questionable people hanging around the hotel, and people played loud music in their cars in the parking lot. The stairwells were filthy. No elevator.2021-06-09"
"There were roaches in the hallway; we told the hotel clerk, and although she said she'd call an exterminator, she didn't seem concerned. The bed blankets were damp. This was my 1st stay here, and it will definitely be my last.2019-11-03"

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.
