"The room wasn't properly cleaned. The windows, toilet, and bathtub were all noticeably dirty; I didn't want to touch anything. The staff was quite friendly. Don't stay at this hotel.2022-08-17"
"The room was clean and comfortable. Poor complimentary breakfast and coffee. If you want a decent place to sleep, this hotel works. If you're looking for more amenities, stay elsewhere.2021-10-25"
"Great value. The hotel was pleasant, and the room was clean and spacious.2017-11-17"
"The hotel and room were sparkling clean and well-maintained. Even the carpet in the hallway was clean. My entire room was odor-free, and all the furnishings and fixtures looked new. Even the bathroom was spotless, though the floor felt a bit sticky. This will definitely be my 1st choice when I return to Michigan City.2017-01-05"
"The room was spacious and clean, and the hotel staff was friendly.2016-09-05"
"Great location and rates. The room was clean but the bedding wasn't, and the mattress needed to be replaced. Friendly staff. The swimming pool and breakfast were fine. We enjoyed our stay.2015-09-24"
"The motel was OK. There were some stains on the bedding, and the room smelled musty. The shampoo container was already open and half gone, and there was only one bar of soap. Not much hot water in the morning. Not worth the price.2021-09-08"
"The motel was conveniently located and pets were allowed. Most of the employees were friendly, but one night clerk wasn't.2018-10-11"
"An OK motel. No coffee maker in the room, though.2018-06-19"
"Great hotel; we want to come back with our kids.2016-02-16"
"Basic hotel. The carpet was dirty and had a big stain, and the light by the bed was unplugged. There was a hole in the wall from the bathroom door lock. The towel bar next to the sink was loose. Breakfast was the best part of my stay.2015-09-08"
"Close to the casino, restaurants, and the outlet mall. Low-cost, no-thrill hotel. The room was clean and cool. The bed wasn't comfortable, but the linens were clean. Nice shower with plenty of hot water. The toilet didn't flush well, and there was rust in the sink. No AC in the hallway. Pleasant staff. We didn't see an elevator, and the stair carpet had a pattern that makes you dizzy if you stare at it. Continental breakfast was mediocre.2015-09-07"
"Our non-smoking room smelled like smoke, and the smoke detector was hanging from the wall. I turned on the sink water, and water flowed from the handle. The entrance had a sign saying the door would be locked for our safety, but it was not. Don't stay at this hotel.2021-09-20"
"The hotel room wasn't clean, and breakfast was disappointing. Keep your expectations low.2016-09-10"
"A horrible hotel stay. There were 4 of us, but the staff would only give us 2 washcloths.2016-06-28"
"We had a wonderful hotel stay. Nice, clean room. The guests in the next room were loud late at night, but I called the front desk clerk and it was taken care of. The pool was clean, and I loved that there was a shower to rinse off. Lots of options at breakfast.2022-08-24"
"Everything about my stay was great. The hotel was new and had contemporary decor; it exceeded my expectations. The staff was incredibly friendly, and the coffee bar was a nice extra. We had dinner at Brentwood Tavern; the food, service, and cocktails were all outstanding. You'll be impressed. I definitely recommend staying here.2019-05-22"
"Nice, clean rooms. The hotel staff was helpful and accommodating.2019-01-29"
"I knew I'd made a bad decision as soon as I arrived at this hotel. The parking lot was dark and uninviting, especially for a woman traveling alone. The front desk clerk was surly and treated me as if I interrupted her cell phone call to do something trivial. There was a group of men in the lobby, and one said something inappropriate to me. The room reeked of smoke, even though it's supposedly a smoke-free property. It was musty, and the bathroom was disgusting. Breakfast was inedible. Don't stay here.2017-04-29"

"There weren't enough outlets at the desk for my devices. The only multiple outlet was by the dresser, which wasn't near the desk. No chair in the room other than the desk chair. If you need to charge multiple devices, stay at another hotel.2019-07-01"
"A satisfactory hotel stay.2016-05-16"
"Nice hotel for the price. The room was clean and orderly. The front desk clerks were friendly and helpful, and I liked the later checkout time.2016-02-08"
"My hotel stay was fine, including the unexpected upgrade to a king suite. One of the TV remote controls didn't work, the bathroom door didn't close properly, and there was no tissue. Fortunately, the 2nd remote control worked for both TVs.2018-06-04"
"There were restaurants nearby, and a gas station and convenience store next door. This was an exceptionally clean hotel. Our room was comfortable and sanitary, and the pillows were wonderful. The front desk clerks greeted us every time they saw us, and smiled as they worked. The hot breakfast had everything we needed. We'll stay again.2016-06-21"

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.
