"Everything about my stay was great. The hotel was new and had contemporary decor; it exceeded my expectations. The staff was incredibly friendly, and the coffee bar was a nice extra. We had dinner at Brentwood Tavern; the food, service, and cocktails were all outstanding. You'll be impressed. I definitely recommend staying here.2019-05-22"
"Nice, clean rooms. The hotel staff was helpful and accommodating.2019-01-29"
"The hotel was sub-par. We had to request soap for the room, and the clerk had to dig around to find some. Look for other accommodations.2021-08-09"
"Close to the casino but not a great value. The hotel was showing its age and needed work, but the employees were friendly and helpful.2019-05-20"
"My hotel stay was fine.2019-04-26"
"Good hotel, but the pool was out of service, and the elevator didn't work. We didn't want to haul our luggage up 3 flights of stairs, so we just brought a few things to our room.2019-03-20"
"A good, comfortable hotel. The phone in my room worked. The staff was friendly and helpful.2019-03-13"
"We had a wonderful hotel stay. Nice, clean room. The guests in the next room were loud late at night, but I called the front desk clerk and it was taken care of. The pool was clean, and I loved that there was a shower to rinse off. Lots of options at breakfast.2022-08-24"
"I loved everything about this hotel, and the employees were really nice. Stay here.2019-10-28"

"The hotel room was clean, and check-in was pleasant. Book it.2021-06-21"
"Convenient to the beach. The decor was dated, but the hotel was clean and decent. The door didn't lock securely unless is was pulled hard, and I had to get new key cards every day. The front desk clerks weren't familiar with the area and were unable to recommend dining or shopping locations. They didn't answer the phone and didn't wear masks despite signs saying masks were required. The pool was clean and well-maintained. Coffee and water were available, and there were vending and ice machines, but they only took cash. No major stores or restaurants nearby; Meijer's was 5 miles away, and Walmart was 10 miles away.2020-07-27"
"Our non-smoking room smelled like smoke, and the smoke detector was hanging from the wall. I turned on the sink water, and water flowed from the handle. The entrance had a sign saying the door would be locked for our safety, but it was not. Don't stay at this hotel.2021-09-20"
"The hotel room wasn't clean, and breakfast was disappointing. Keep your expectations low.2016-09-10"

"Basic hotel. The carpet was dirty and had a big stain, and the light by the bed was unplugged. There was a hole in the wall from the bathroom door lock. The towel bar next to the sink was loose. Breakfast was the best part of my stay.2015-09-08"
"My room was nice and quiet, but the AC took too long to cool down the room. The breakfast buffet was very good. All in all, I had a good hotel stay.2015-09-07"
"Good hotel overall, but I found grocery bags between the bed and the wall. The AC didn't work well and was dirty; also, one knob wouldn't turn and the other one was wobbly. The staff was polite, and breakfast was good. Nice enough, but nothing fancy.2015-08-04"
"Close to the casino, restaurants, and the outlet mall. Low-cost, no-thrill hotel. The room was clean and cool. The bed wasn't comfortable, but the linens were clean. Nice shower with plenty of hot water. The toilet didn't flush well, and there was rust in the sink. No AC in the hallway. Pleasant staff. We didn't see an elevator, and the stair carpet had a pattern that makes you dizzy if you stare at it. Continental breakfast was mediocre.2015-09-07"
"The room was spacious and clean, and the hotel staff was friendly.2016-09-05"
"Great location and rates. The room was clean but the bedding wasn't, and the mattress needed to be replaced. Friendly staff. The swimming pool and breakfast were fine. We enjoyed our stay.2015-09-24"
"The motel was OK. There were some stains on the bedding, and the room smelled musty. The shampoo container was already open and half gone, and there was only one bar of soap. Not much hot water in the morning. Not worth the price.2021-09-08"
"The motel was conveniently located and pets were allowed. Most of the employees were friendly, but one night clerk wasn't.2018-10-11"

"Wonderful room and friendly staff. I highly recommend this hotel.2018-05-28"
"Nice hotel with courteous front desk clerks and a decent breakfast. I'll stay again.2016-01-07"
"The bathtub didn't drain well. The hotel clerk was surly and short with me when I asked for a new key. Another clerk told me to go online and look when I asked about the train schedule. I left my phone charger behind, and of course when I called about it, I was told it hadn't been found. I was quite disappointed.2015-03-24"
"The hotel and room were sparkling clean and well-maintained. Even the carpet in the hallway was clean. My entire room was odor-free, and all the furnishings and fixtures looked new. Even the bathroom was spotless, though the floor felt a bit sticky. This will definitely be my 1st choice when I return to Michigan City.2017-01-05"
"The room wasn't properly cleaned. The windows, toilet, and bathtub were all noticeably dirty; I didn't want to touch anything. The staff was quite friendly. Don't stay at this hotel.2022-08-17"

"The hotel room was clean, and the staff was friendly. Worth a stay.2017-10-13"
"I had difficulty checking in. When I finally got to my hotel room, the bed looked like it had been slept in, and there was a hair on the pillow.2021-04-07"
"I knew I'd made a bad decision as soon as I arrived at this hotel. The parking lot was dark and uninviting, especially for a woman traveling alone. The front desk clerk was surly and treated me as if I interrupted her cell phone call to do something trivial. There was a group of men in the lobby, and one said something inappropriate to me. The room reeked of smoke, even though it's supposedly a smoke-free property. It was musty, and the bathroom was disgusting. Breakfast was inedible. Don't stay here.2017-04-29"
"The hotel was quiet; we had our dog with us, and there was no noise to wake up. Loved the kitchen facilities, but some there weren't enough bowls or spoons. The 24-hour coffee was a real bonus. I definitely recommend staying here.2017-09-01"

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.
