"The motel didn't look like online photos, and the exterior was nicer than the interior. The room was dirty and had spider webs, the towels smelled bad, and the shower water fluctuated from scalding hot to freezing cold. Breakfast wasn't stocked, and the orange juice was warm. The ice machine didn't work, and the soda vending machine ate my money. Don't stay here.2019-11-23"
"There were dead bugs in my motel room, and cobwebs all over. There was mold in the coffee maker. The toilet seat was broken, and when the toilet was flushed it sounded like an airplane landing on the roof. I'll never stay here again.2016-07-25"
"I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the motel and the size of the room, considering the low rates. The bathroom was small.2016-06-02"
"The hotel is no longer pet-friendly, but they were able to accommodate us and allow our puppy for one night. Beautiful place; try it.2017-07-12"
"A cute hotel. The bedsheets were the softest ever, but the bed wasn't the best. Ask for a room away from the train tracks.2017-06-12"
"The hotel was beautifully maintained, and the atmosphere was charming. I loved my stay here. The room, common spaces, and restaurants were all clean and inviting. This is an old-world place, so enjoy the experience. Tour the entire place; there are lots of little treasures to discover.2016-11-14"
"You get what you pay for. The beds were too soft and sagged in the middle. No continental breakfast. Next time I'll spend a little more and stay in a better hotel.2017-02-02"
"The key cards didn't work; we got new ones, but they didn't work either. We had to get an employee to let us in our room rather than spend 5 minutes trying to get in ourselves. No soap in the bathroom dispenser, and the dispensers in the shower didn't work. I don't recommend this hotel.2019-08-26"

"This hotel is always clean, and the staff is always pleasant. We love staying here when we're in town. The only negative is that the beds are too firm. Everything else is great.2019-04-30"
I loved that HotelGuides helped me find a hotel. You can try to search for one yourself, but this service was so helpful. Just click on the section of the Interstate you are driving on and you see a list of hotels that actually have rooms available.
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.
