"Nice motel. The employees were quick about meeting our needs.2018-06-23"
"Good value if you don't need extra frills. This was our 2nd stay at this motel. Our room was large, clean, and pet-friendly, and it was convenient having a coffee maker and an extra sink outside the bathroom. The room needed better lighting, though, and the exhaust fan in the bathroom didn't even begin to clear the steam from showers. But the shower was great, and the bathtub drained well. Limited continental breakfast, and I had to ask the attendant to restock some items.2017-08-15"
"This motel was good enough for an overnight stay. The breakfast attendant was too busy with her cell phone to pay attention to keeping thing stocked. I had to ask her to get coffee, then milk, then orange juice.2017-05-11"
"This is an excellent hotel. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the staff was helpful. Breakfast had some hot selections.2022-03-06"
"The carpet needed vacuuming, and the bathroom floor wasn't swept. The hotel clerks were unfriendly and unhelpful. The breakfast was bad. Don't make this your first choice.2021-05-25"
"The hotel was clean, and the room was nice. The only downside was that we didn't get a 1st floor room as requested. The front desk staff was welcoming. Go for it.2021-10-24"
"Our stay at this hotel was poor. Our room only had a twin bed. There was an overhead light, but no desk lamp. The TV wouldn't come on; we were told to unplug the cable box. There were no washcloths and only half a roll of toilet paper, and the hotel clerk said we'd have to go upstairs to get more. The bathtub didn't drain well. 2018-05-21"

"Easy access to Highway 75. Convenient to shops, and about 4 miles from the expo building. The hotel staff was friendly. We'd stay here again.2015-10-27"
"No smoke alarm in the room. There was old food in the fridge. The bathroom was dirty, there were holes in the walls, and the tiles were falling off. The checkout clerk waited on people who came in after we did and made us wait, and we weren't asked how our stay was. Don't stay at this motel.2020-01-29"
"The motel room was dirty and smelled bad. There was too much chlorine in the pool. Slim pickings at breakfast, and items ran out early. Don't stay here; it's a waste of money.2015-11-24"
"The hotel was clean and pet-friendly, and the employees were nice.2018-03-26"
"The hotel wasn't that clean, and the lobby and hallways smelled bad. The room had new carpet, but the bathtub wasn't appealing. The front desk clerk was nice and helpful. OK if you just need a bed for a night, but I wouldn't stay here again.2017-11-02"

"Nice location. The hotel was brand new and lovely and had lots of amenities like a microwave, fridge, free WiFi, pool, and exercise room. But plan to be nickel and dimed. We even had to pay extra for coffee pods. Breakfast wasn't free, though.2018-10-02"

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.
