The breakfast bar was kind of cheap; my muffin was hard, and then I realized a bite had already been taken out of it. On a positive note, a desk clerk came out without being asked and helped clear the snow off my car windows. It was much appreciated.2017-01-07"

"Great location near the airport. The motel was clean, comfortable, and reasonably priced, but smoke from another room came into mine. Nice staff. Breakfast was simple but good.2017-09-27"

"We were offered a room on the 2nd floor, but it was near the elevator so we opted for a 1st floor room. There was a yapping dog in the room next door, so we ended up moving to the original room. The rooms were small, and the heater was noisy. The hotel staff was cordial and helpful. Small breakfast area, but the food was sufficient. Adequate for an overnight stay, but I wouldn't return.2016-12-05"

A 5-star hotel all the way.2016-02-06"

"I expected better for the price. The room phone didn't work, and as I was fiddling with it, apparently it was calling the office without my knowledge. When I returned home, the clerk called and asked me to stop calling the office. There was a coffee maker, but no cups. No phone directory or menus in the room. The people in the room upstairs were noisy. Consider other options.2022-06-25"

"Wonderful staff and complimentary breakfast on weekdays. The free bikes were great to ride to the farmers' market. But the street noise and noise from other guests will keep us from staying at this hotel again. We didn't realize there were ear plugs in the bedside drawer until we were leaving. No fridge in the room, scant furnishings, and nowhere in the bathroom to store toiletries. If you want peace and quiet for sleeping, this is not the place for you.2016-04-16"
"Convenient to downtown. Nice hotel with a bit of a funky vibe. My 1st night was at the end of a music festival, and hotel guests were loud and rowdy all night. But the remaining 4 nights were nice and quiet. No coffee maker, microwave, or refrigerator in the room. The restaurant was good, but there was nothing ordinary on the menu. Not great for a longer stay.2015-04-05"

"The hotel clerk was nice, but not much else was. The fire alarm went off just 15 minutes after we arrived, and we had to wait outside for 15 minutes. When we returned to the room, we found a box cutter with blood on it under the bed. There was a group of people outside our window yelling and making a great deal of noise.

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.
