"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"

"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 hotel was easy to access and close to restaurants and a Starbucks. Good place for the price, and pets were allowed. The soundproofing wasn't the best. I felt comfortable walking my dog alone at 10:30 PM in the grassy area around the property.2018-08-28"

"The hotel was quiet, and the bed was comfortable. The key card reader didn't work well; I had to go to the front desk twice because of the problem. Just half a roll of toilet paper was provided the 1st night. Smoke detector alarms woke me up at 2 AM and 8 AM. The hallway was too warm. The hotel staff was friendly and helpful. I'd stay here again.2020-06-26"

"The hotel room was nice and clean. The bedding was fresh and included a mattress pad. However, I was disappointed that the pool water was cloudy and there were no towels. The pool room smelled like moldy flip-flops. We later found out someone had been sick in the pool, and it was closed the next day for cleaning.2018-05-11"

"The hotel was being renovated. The staff let us look at a room before officially checking in; it was fine and clean. But the hallways were packed with mattresses and furniture.

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.
