"Pets were allowed, and I was disappointed that they weren't relegated to certain rooms. Our rooms smelled and activated my allergies to dogs and cats. We bought an air freshener, which helped. Otherwise, the hotel was nice, and the staff was friendly. Good breakfast.2023-05-30"
"The hotel room was modern and well-equipped, and had a sofa bed and 2 queen beds. The roll-out desk was handy, and we appreciated the dishwasher, microwave, and fridge. Breakfast was all carbs. We'd stay here again.2022-04-25"

"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 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"

"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"

"I chose this motel because of the price and convenience to Vanderbilt Hospital, but I wouldn't stay here again. It was old and needed updating. Security was good and the bed was comfortable, but the bathroom was small and wasn't clean. There was what looked like mold in the corners. Not enough washcloths provided. There were only 2 drawers in the room for storage, so I had to keep most of my belongings in my suitcase. Consider other options.2018-02-03"

"It took over 15 minutes for the water to warm up, and it was barely lukewarm. Find another hotel.2016-03-07"

"The hotel smelled awful, and the room wasn't clean. The front desk clerk was rude. Stay somewhere else.2016-06-04"

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.
