"My stay was awful. The hotel clerk was rude and acted like she was doing us a favor. The beds were uncomfortable, and kids ran around in the lobby and hallway all night. Terrible water pressure. Our request for a late checkout was refused. The only good thing was the great breakfast and nice attendants. Not a good value. Stay away from this one.2021-10-12"
"We didn't get a 1st floor room as requested. The floor in our room was dirty, and half the lights didn't work. The TV screen was cracked. There was no cold water in the sink, and the toilet leaked. The dog poop container was overflowing, and not everyone cleaned up after their dogs. Not a great motel stay; we won't return.2020-07-02"

"The room was clean, and the hotel clerk was helpful. I appreciated that the towels were replaced. The hallway smelled like smoke, but the room didn't, though there were burn holes in the duvet and on the carpet. The carpet needed cleaning. There was a Burger King next to the hotel, so I heard some noise.2020-12-13"

Give it a try; you won't be disappointed.2015-08-17"

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.
