"The hotel was nice and quiet, and the staff was friendly. The breakfast bar needed more selections.2015-11-08"
"Our first impression was that the hotel was dirty. There was a hole in the wall of our room. The furniture was old and so dirty we didn't want to sit down. The TV was dated, and cut off the sides of the viewing screen. The toilet didn't flush unless we held the handle down. The front desk clerk didn't speak English well, so check-in was difficult. Don't stay here.2015-08-05"

"No Internet access in our motel room, and the hot tub was out of order. We weren't informed about either at check-in. There had recently been a fire in our side of the building, but our room was clean and spacious. The hallway had new carpeting, and didn't smell like smoke.2015-09-15"
"The hotel room wasn't totally clean, and there were no chairs or bedside lamps. There were dirty towels left on the shower curtain rod. The fridge didn't work, and only decaf coffee was provided in the room; the clerk said they couldn't find the regular coffee. Not a good place to stay.2018-07-01"

"The hotel was quiet and conveniently located. Clean room and bathroom, and the bathroom looked recently updated. The staff was friendly, helpful, and eager to accommodate us. There was a pool, exercise room, and laundry facilities.2019-07-07"
"The hotel lobby smelled bad. No microwave or fridge in the room. Pay a bit more to stay somewhere else.2017-08-08"
"Cheap for a reason. The hotel clerk was nice, welcoming, and astute, but the room was a downer. It smelled musty and smoky. Only one bottle of shampoo provided, and the toilet paper roll kept falling apart. The towels were of poor quality. Breakfast was only OK because it was free.2016-05-06"

"The room and staff were pleasant, but the bed was the most uncomfortable I've ever encountered at a motel. I might as well have slept in the parking lot with a brick for a pillow.2016-09-25"
I have never found a hotel booking site so easy to use. I had my room booked in less than a minute. The hotel where I had planned to stay had an issue. I was panicking. I clicked on HotelGuides' website, got a room, and checked in 15 minutes later.

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.
