"We enjoyed our stay at this hotel. The room was nice and thoroughly cleaned each day. The employees were pleasant and helpful.2015-08-07"
"I was disappointed with my hotel stay in Building 1. I could hear everyone in the hallways, other rooms, and a bus outside. There was dust on the dresser. Took a long time for water to heat up. The staff was pleasant and helpful.2015-04-12"
"Excellent beach access right behind the hotel. We were upgraded to a penthouse with an unbelievable view. The staff was efficient and helpful. Don't recommend Bongos, the restaurant and tiki bar next door; the staff was rude and unprofessional. Fortunately, there are plenty of alternatives nearby.2016-01-09"
"Wish the balconies were more private; we didn't like looking at our neighbor having coffee in the morning. Convenient having a washer and dryer in the room. Excellent staff and housekeepers; they were hard workers. We enjoyed our time at this hotel.2015-03-01"

"The room door wouldn't close properly, and there was so much noise outside that I couldn't sleep. There were cockroaches in the bathroom, and the bathroom door wouldn't close at all. I wouldn't recommend this hotel to a dog, much less a human.2019-03-21"

"The motel room was clean, and the check-in clerk was personable. Good bang for the buck.2016-03-03"
"This motel was the worst. Had to pay just to get towels for the pool that was cold as ice. No local information available, and the staff wasn't friendly. When I went to check out, they ran to see the room, which was insulting.2015-11-24"

"The hotel was convenient and clean, and the staff was terrific during Hurricane Irma. The power was sporadic from room to room, so it was challenging for all; some rooms had AC but no lights, other rooms had no AC but had lights and TV power. The employees even ran an extension cord from a working outlet to make as much coffee as they could. I'd definitely stay here again.2017-09-14"
"Lovely room. The staff was helpful and friendly. Nice pool and exercise room. The hotel was under construction, but it will be beautiful when completed. Enjoy your stay.2016-10-26"

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.
