"The hotel was reasonably priced, but we weren't told about the deposit policy at check-in. Our key card stopped working the 2nd day. The toilet was loose, and there was hair in the bathtub. No hot water for showers in the evening.2019-11-04"

"While I was at my boyfriend's graduation, some woman I didn't know kept leaving notes by my hotel room door asking me to contact her, along with a pack of cigarettes on what she thought was my car. When I got back from the graduation, she was waiting for me and banging on my door to be let in. Not a good experience.2018-12-18"
"We weren't aware that the motel was being renovated; there was plastic everywhere, even on the driveway to check in. The room smelled like marijuana, and the TV channel selection was limited.

"A no-nonsense hotel. The room was clean enough but somewhat small. My room was next to the elevator, but it wasn't too noisy to sleep. The AC was loud, though, and I had to keep it at 66 degrees to sufficiently cool the room. The mattress was lumpy but served its purpose. The bathroom sliding door kept sticking. Friendly, helpful staff. Breakfast was available from 6-9, so get there early.2019-10-30"
"The hotel looked a bit dated, but it was a good place for the price and just around the corner from the airport. Definitely a 2-star place, but they do 2-star pretty well. The AC didn't adequately cool my room. I smelled marijuana from another room at night, but the front desk staff didn't do anything about it. They were sweet and courteous, however. The coffee and hot water in the lobby were lukewarm.2019-06-25"

"The room was clean other than the carpet. The bathroom was wonderfully equipped with grab bars everywhere. I've never experienced such wonderful service at a hotel before. The front desk clerk came outside to verify some information and even drew me a map to my destination the next day. The breakfast attendant walked us to the door since my husband uses a cane. The only drawback was that there was no free breakfast, so we had to drive elsewhere for meals. I highly recommend staying here.2017-12-12"

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.
