"The hotel wasn't clean. The mattress was OK, but the headboard was dirty. Good water pressure in the shower, but the paint job in the bathroom was poor. The electrical outlet in the bathroom didn't work, and the smell of smoke came in through the exhaust. The wallpaper in the bathroom odd the lobby was peeling. There was trash and food spills in the elevators and hallways. The only ice machine was on the ground floor. Only decaf coffee was available. Don't stay here.2022-04-03"
"The 1st room had peeling paint, and the bathroom was dirty and had black mold. No hair dryer in the 2nd room, and no shower caps were available. Stay at another hotel.2016-11-29"
"Great price. The hotel was nice and clean, though there was some work being done. The maintenance man was helpful in assisting with our sick child. Great staff. Highly recommend.2016-04-02"

"The hotel room was filthy. There was food on the floor. No vanity or mirrors. Don't stay here.2021-05-26"
"Don't waste your money at this hotel. The room was damp, had bugs, and smelled bad, and the light fixture was full of bugs. There was hair in the bathtub, and the toilet wasn't bolted to the floor.2018-08-12"
"The hotel was under construction. The bed was comfortable, but that was the only positive. The TV listed 114 stations but only got 64, and the remote control didn't work. Breakfast was paltry at best. Not a good stay.2017-02-15"

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.
