"The room smelled clean, but it didn't look clean. There was a sticky substance on the side of the bed. No microwave in the room. There was black mold on the bathroom ceiling, as well as water damage. The light fixtures were rusty. The hotel staff was friendly.2020-07-06"

"Good location, but it seemed like a bit of a party hotel with a fair amount of noise. People knocked on our door several times throughout the evening. Breakfast was great.2018-02-26"
"Awful hotel, and absolutely not worth the price. We had to pay an extra $10 per night for the 2nd person in the room. Poor housekeeping. The Internet connection was too slow. The hallway carpet was stained. Minimal workout equipment. The continental breakfast had cheap, unhealthy selections. Never again.2015-07-28"

"The first key cards didn't work, so we couldn't get into the parking garage or the hotel. The hallways were freezing. The restaurant was expensive, so we didn't eat there. Self-parking and valet both cost $26. I won't be staying again.2015-05-22"
"Great location near good restaurants. What a fun place to stay. The hotel desk clerks and valet staff were all helpful, and the employees at the bar were friendly. Had a shuttle service within a 3-mile radius. We'd definitely stay again.2015-05-21"

"Good hotel room, but I didn't like having to pay to park.2017-09-05"
"The hotel was a joint property with a Residence Inn, so it was confusing when we arrived; we initially thought we were in the wrong place because of the signage. The room was fine. The elevators in the parking garage were out of order, and the signs were so small we couldn't read them from far away, so we didn't realize there were other elevators that worked. The TV in our room didn't work. The front desk clerk gave us incorrect directions. You'll need your room key to exit the garage after checkout.2021-04-09"

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.
