"A terrible experience. We left after the 1st night. The beds were filthy, and the bedsheets weren't clean. The AC didn't work, and the shower was disgusting. We went to the front desk for help, but the hotel clerk said there were no other rooms available. Don't stay here.2017-07-17"
"Close to the park and International Drive. The hotel room was nice.2017-06-13"

"The hotel was in a convenient area. The room was clean, and the beds and pillows were so comfortable. The staff was amazing. Free breakfast and free shuttle to Universal Parks. Discounted theme park tickets were available, too. We'll definitely stay here again.2018-11-30"

"The safety latch on my room door was broken. The TV didn't work even after I notified the staff. No microwave. No top sheet on the bed, and the comforter was stained. There was hair in the shower, and there was no sink stopper. No hand towels or face cloths, either. There was a huge crack in the flooring. Stay at another motel.2023-09-28"
"My hotel room wasn't cleaned during my 5-day stay. The TV and phone didn't work, and the shower didn't drain. I was moved to another room, but the shower in that room didn't drain well, either. The fridge wasn't cold enough to keep soda cold. No working ice machine. Other guests were noisy all night. 2023-02-06"

"Great location. Affordable and pet-friendly hotel. Comfortable beds, and it was great having two sinks in the room. The staff was friendly and accommodating, and the manager personally checked to make sure we were happy. Convenient breakfast buffet, and worth the low cost.2015-04-06"
"We really enjoyed our stay. Nice place for a good price, and not far from Universal Studios. The free shuttle was convenient, but the last pickup to return to the hotel was at 7 PM. The hotel staff was helpful. I definitely recommend staying here.2018-09-13"
"Located behind a Dunkin' Donuts, so some people might have trouble finding it. Within walking distance to stores and restaurants. Hotel room was clean, and there was no extra charge when we asked for extra blankets. The warm breakfast hit the spot, and there was no wait for the food.2015-04-01"

"Hotel was too warm, and had a strong, strange smell. We had to run the AC to get rid of the smell in our room. Housekeeping came to the door at 9:30 AM and asked for our used towels and washcloths; they said we wouldn't get clean replacements for a few hours, so we weren't able to shower before going out. Hotel check-in clerk was friendly and helpful.2014-11-01"

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.
