"Not worth the price. The hotel was outdated and not that clean. I was uncomfortable with the people roaming the hallways and parking lot.2019-08-31"
"The hotel was typical and nothing special. I slept fairly well. However, I was disappointed that the indoor pool was out of service.2019-02-05"
"The price was right, but the hotel wasn't especially clean and had a foul smell. The staff was unfriendly. The pool was closed during our stay, and the complimentary breakfast was a fail. We stayed here because it was convenient to the Navy boot camp graduation; it's an OK place if you won't be spending much time in your room.2019-02-04"
"The 1st night was fine; the room was clean, and the beds and pillows were comfortable. The key card didn't work the 2nd night, and the hotel staff was rude when I went to have it re-set. My husband had problems with his key as well, and the staff insisted it was our fault. I won't stay here again and don't recommend it.2018-06-05"

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.
