"The mattress in my hotel room sagged and was uncomfortable. The lounge chair by the pool were flimsy and sun-damaged. Other than that, my stay was awesome.2021-09-20"
"The room was spotless, but needed better lighting. The blinds let in too much light from outside. The hotel staff was wonderful. Because of Covid, breakfast was a to-go bag with water, an apple, and energy bars. Great place.2020-09-02"
"Nice place, though I was surprised that construction was underway. The staff was polite and accommodating. There was a brewery next door, so street parking was congested. Once inside the hotel, however, it all was peaceful.2019-05-01"

"Large suite with a sofa, but it wasn't a sofa bed, and the staff refused to give us extra pillows or blankets. We didn't get enough dishes for 4 people. We stayed for 10 nights, and the housekeeper never restocked the soap or coffee. We only got a change of towels once, and got fewer towels. The bathroom was functional, but in need of deep cleaning. Spend some extra money and stay at another motel.2015-06-05"

"The only positive things we can say about this motel are that the bed was comfortable and the bathroom was clean and looked newly renovated. The carpet and towels were worn and stained, and most of the light fixtures didn't work; the main one didn't even have a lightbulb in it.

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.
