"The hotel rates were reasonable. The heater and fridge were noisy, and so was the exhaust fan in the bathroom. Not much of a breakfast. One side of the toaster didn't work, and the dining chairs were dirty.2023-12-06"
"I had a smoking room, but it was clean. I did need air freshener.2019-10-11"
"I've stayed at this motel several times. It's always been clean and quiet, and I feel safe staying here. However, the Internet and cell phone reception are so weak they're almost useless.2015-06-07"
"The motel room was clean and quiet, and the AC worked well. Had a fridge, microwave, and coffee maker, though there weren't enough electrical outlets, so I had to move one appliance to use the other. Good bed with plenty of pillows. The smoke detector started beeping at 3 AM because of a low battery.2016-06-11"
"The hotel was clean and comfortable, and had been updated since my last stay. The only problem I had was other guests running in the hallway when I was resting. Someone banged on my door; they had the wrong room.2021-06-29"

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.
