"The resort was beautiful, and the room was nice. The only problem was some sand on the floor. I enjoyed the pool area and the outdoor bar with a gulf view. If you have children, they'll love this place. The kids' pool area was awesome, and there were lots of activities for and movies.2017-04-25"
"The hotel was falling apart. I had to call the front desk daily to keep the AC running. There was only one chair in the room, and no lamp on the desk. The elevator operation was spotty. People hung out in the parking lot playing loud music until 3 AM. I left a day early. Stay away from this place.2021-04-27"

"Not a good value. I received a gruff reception from the attendant when I arrived. The condo was dirty, and it was a trudge to reach it. Not enough toilet paper provided, and there was no housekeeping service. The parking garage was poorly designed, so I had to park while trying to avoid being hit by speeding cars in the opposite direction.2019-04-30"

"The hotel was attractive. Nice, clean room, but there were no towels at all when I arrived; I had to get towels at the front desk since the housekeeper never brought any as promised. The front desk clerks were helpful. Great parking.2023-06-22"

"Decent hotel, but it seemed overpriced and overlooked a fire station. The bathtub was peeling and worn. Adequate breakfast.2017-06-17"
"The hotel was nice and clean, and the location was perfect. No washcloths provided; I called the front desk and was told someone would bring them, but no one did. We ended up asking housekeeping, and they brought some promptly. Check-in was quick, but the clerks weren't friendly. The checkout clerk was much nicer. We'd stay here again.2022-06-27"
"Not worth the price. This hotel was deplorable. The room wasn't clean, and there was mold from a leaking AC. The cot had a stained mattress pad, and the bedsheets were also stained. Spilled soda around the vending machine wasn't cleaned up for 2 days, and there were dead bugs on the floor. The front desk clerk wasn't helpful, and we had to wait for her to finish texting before she acknowledged us. Find another place to stay.2019-07-23"

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.
