"Close to the highway. The rates were reasonable. There were some maintenance issues, but the hotel was clean. The front desk clerk was awesome and helped in every way possible. Nice, warm pool, though there was no whirlpool. Breakfast was enjoyable, and there was ample parking.2018-11-07"
"The 1st room had a filthy chair and non-working AC. We moved to another room; it was a little better, but the bathroom floor was sticky and dirty. The elevator and stairwell smelled bad. Find another hotel.2016-10-12"

"I wasn't pleased with this hotel. The room was clean, but needed some updating. Check-in was fine. We went down for breakfast in the morning at 7 AM, and it wasn't set up. There was no one at the front desk, and the lobby was dark. No one was at the front desk until 9 AM, and breakfast was never provided that day. Choose another place to stay.2016-02-02"

"Easy to access. The motel was clean and comfortable, and breakfast was good. There was a nice restaurant nearby. Great place to stay.2016-10-30"
"Nice, clean room; it was spacious and comfortable. Due to a plumbing issue, we had to move to another room, but were given a significant discount for the inconvenience. The promised full breakfast was unavailable, but we were given vouchers for Huddle down the street; they had good food and friendly service. There was some construction underway at the hotel; the exercise room was small, and the river park was a short walk away but not visible from the rooms. Overall, a pleasant stay.2015-03-23"
"Hotel was very relaxing. Everything was great. Stay here.2015-01-30"
"The hotel was super clean and comfortable. Quiet, good-sized room. No daily housekeeping because of Covid; we were told to leave our used towels outside the door and they'd be replaced. They were, and the waste baskets were emptied. The breakfast staff was friendly and helpful.2020-10-02"
"The hotel was within walking distance of downtown. Seemed a little overpriced. The room door wouldn't lock, so we were moved to another room. The TV didn't work, but it was fixed the next day. The breakfast selection could've been better.2022-09-27"
"The motel wasn't terrible, but it wasn't nice. Limited facility with average amenities. The continental breakfast was just coffee, juice, and cereal. I expected more for the price.2016-02-29"
"The hotel clerks rarely smiled. When I mentioned the lack of hot water in the coffee bar, I was just told, "OK, I'll take care of it." Housekeeping never serviced our room after we arrived. I don't recommend staying here.2018-01-01"

"The motel didn't look like online photos. The 1st room was unsatisfactory; The lights and phone didn't work, and the bathroom wasn't clean. We were moved to another room that wasn't much better. The front desk clerk was nice, but I wouldn't stay here again and don't recommend it.2017-01-25"

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.
