"We looked at 3 rooms, and they were all dirty. Don't stay at this motel.2023-07-14"
"Not a good experience. We didn't feel safe here. There was a large gap around the room door that let in cold air. There were just 3 tiny pillows for 2 people.

"Not a good value. The hotel room was small and smelly, and areas of the carpet were sticky. The bathroom was so small that I had to straddle the toilet to close the door. The shower water was yellow for the first several minutes it was on, and it leaked everywhere. The sink dripped constantly. The soundproofing was poor; we could hear every word of the neighbor's conversation at 2:30 AM. I would have left if we hadn't been so exhausted. Don't stay here.2021-04-05"

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.
