"The carpet in our hotel room was horribly stained; it made us feel like the room wasn't clean. The TV had 2 remote controls, and we had trouble keeping it online; we had to have a maintenance man come up twice. I didn't get a printed invoice the day we checked out.2019-08-15"

"The motel staff was rude and unprofessional. There were ants in our room, and they said it wasn't their problem. It got worse over 4 days until they were in my son's bed. We had to ask to have the bedding changed, and when it was done, it turned out there was trash at the bottom of the bedsheets. The staff told us to contact the main hotel chain if we had a problem with our stay. Spend a little extra and stay somewhere else.2018-04-24"

The staff wasn't able to accommodate our request for adjoining rooms, and the key card system was down so we needed a personal escort every time we entered our room. Don't stay here; it's not worth the price.2017-12-12"

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.
