"Our room keys wouldn't work. We finally got in the room to find that it smelled like smoke and the window didn't open. Got a new room, and our keys didn't work for that room either. The safe didn't work. The shower water was scalding at first. Both the front desk clerks were rude. The continental breakfast was good. Don't recommend this hotel.2015-09-28"

"Good place to stay. The hotel was quiet and peaceful, and all the employees were courteous. I thought it was wonderful that the manager had hired a person with disabilities. I was disappointed that the pool was closed because of Covid, but I recommend staying here.2020-09-24"
"The hotel room was always either too hot or too cold. The microwave smelled bad and needed cleaning. The bathroom pipes were noisy when other guests showered. On a positive note, the bed was made daily with fresh linens, and we got fresh towels every day. If you're looking for a safe area and average comfort, this is a good choice.2017-06-22"

"The hotel was a little run-down, but there was a sign saying remodeling would begin soon. Our bed had 3 small pillows, and I had to ask for more. When I got them, they didn't have pillowcases on them; we got 1 pillowcase and one zipped pillow protector. We had a coffee pot, but only got 1 packet of regular coffee and 1 packet of decaf. Don't stay here.2022-04-26"

I’ve been using HotelGuides for over 8 years. The agents are very helpful, and they try to accommodate every request. I like that when they email a booking confirmation to you, they include the hotel's address as well as its interstate exit number.
We order the hotels on this page by how close they are to this attraction.
Most of our competitors order these same hotels in other ways that make them more money.
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.
