"The hotel room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the staff was friendly.2018-04-16"
"My stay was fine overall, but check-in was a problem. The hotel clerk was upset that I used a credit card chip feature and said that option wasn't available. I got to the elevator and realized I hadn't been given my room number, so I had to get back in line to get it. The key card didn't work the 2nd day; when I went to get it re-set, the clerk acted like I'd caused the problem. The restaurant staff was great, and the food was good.2017-04-24"
"We arrived at the hotel at 1 PM, and there was no clerk at the front desk. I called, but there was no answer. Finally someone showed up and checked us in. There was a large bug in the room. The bathtub floor was uneven. Don't stay here.2021-05-25"

"An awful experience. I arrived late and needed to take medication with milk, but the breakfast area was locked and the hotel clerk denied my request for one carton of milk.

Find another place to stay.2018-10-26"

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.
