"My stay was horrible. The room smelled like pets, and the linens didn't smell clean. The 2nd night, I ended up leaving at midnight. Don't stay at this hotel.2021-05-28"
"The hotel staff was friendly, but the toilet leaked everywhere. There was no stopper in the bathtub, so my daughter couldn't take a bath.2021-03-08"
"Great hotel that met all our needs. Wonderful complimentary breakfast.2019-10-03"

"We had to wait 15 minutes before the hotel staff welcomed us. I booked 2 rooms, and we had to get my daughter out of the car to verify that the 2nd room was for her. The clerks acted like it was an inconvenience that we wanted a coffee maker, coffee, and cups; we heard them talking in back about who should bring the items to us and who hadn't had a break. The room was OK, though the TV remote control didn't work. The exhaust fan in the bathroom had been removed. The bathroom door was hard to shut, and no shampoo was provided. We had to take our towels to the front desk to get clean ones. Because of construction, the parking lot was full, so we had to park next door. The phone buzzed in the 2nd room, and there was no soap provided. Look for other options.2019-09-24"
"The bathroom sink was full of dirty water when we arrived. There was a soiled towel on the rack, and a used bar of soap in the shower. It made us questions the overall cleanliness of the hotel room.2018-09-05"
"Good hotel with nice rooms. Our room was on the side of the building near the interstate, and it was hard to sleep due to the traffic noise. Breakfast was good, but the eating area was crowded. It was a holiday weekend, so that wasn't a surprise. Nice restaurant across the parking lot.2018-09-04"

"A comfortable, family-owned hotel in a quiet area. The rates were good. It was clean and welcoming, with easy access to the freeway and local restaurants. The breakfast food was hot and fresh. The 1st floor was being remodeled during my stay, but the elevator worked and the upper floor was completely remodeled and comfortable.2023-09-18"

HotelGuides made it easy to choose a hotel based on how far we wanted to get that day. Also liked being able to see the interstate interchange on the map to determine how far off the highway each hotel was.
On place pages like this, we order hotels from lowest cost to highest – except we list low-rated hotels at the bottom of the page.
Most of our competitors order these same hotels in other ways that make them more money.
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.
