"The hotel room was comfortable, but the coffee maker didn't work. We were woken up a number of times by noise. If you need to be close to the fair, this is a good place to stay.2017-08-14"
"The hotel room wasn't appealing. The door moulding was broken, and the door look wasn't professionally installed. I found a used razor in the shower, and there was hair in the shower, too.2018-07-07"
"The motel needed some renovation. My non-smoking room was old and smelled like smoke, and the showerhead leaked. The employees were nice and helpful.2017-03-01"
"We didn't arrive until 5 AM because of car problems, but the motel clerk was nice and extended our checkout time. Unfortunately, the room was absolutely disgusting. The door lock was hanging, and there was mud all over the carpet. The bedding was clean. There was tobacco on the bathroom floor, the bathtub was dirty, and there were fingerprints on the mirror. There was hair on the towels. People smoked marijuana in the parking lot, and I saw a man looking in car windows in the parking lot. Not a safe or clean motel. Find a better place to stay.2016-08-05"
"A disappointing stay at a terrible motel. The room was worn and filthy. Everyone smoked outside their rooms on the balconies. There was a puddle of something between the beds, and there were cigarette burns on everything. We were finally moved to another room when the key card stopped working. There was loud music and suspicious behavior in neighboring rooms, so I didn't get any sleep. There was even vomit on the floor in front of the laundry room. We left at 3:30 AM. Avoid this place.2019-11-11"
"There was hair in the linens, and there was a wet stain on the comforter. When I asked the front desk for a replacement, she said there were no other comforters available. Don't stay at this motel.2016-07-28"
"Cheap motel. Kids raced up and down the balcony at night. Just a place to sleep.2016-05-10"
"Our hotel room smelled bad, and the heating and cooling unit was broken. I called the front desk and we were immediately given another room. Unfortunately, it also smelled bad. There was oil in the sink, it didn't drain well, and there were gnats flying around it. I wouldn't stay again and don't recommend it.2015-12-20"
"The room smelled like smoke, and needed updating. We'd stay at this motel again because of the low rates, but not for an extended stay.2015-08-03"
"The bathroom was dirty and had mold. Go to another motel.2015-04-12"
"There were cockroaches in the bathroom. The staff had poor customer service skills. Don't stay at this motel.2023-10-28"
"My non-smoking motel room smelled like smoke and cologne. All the employees were friendly. Breakfast was OK. The parking lot was secure, and there were cameras everywhere.2018-08-15"
"I didn't feel comfortable in the area. The motel was dirty and had poor soundproofing, and one of the beds had black things on it that I couldn't identify. The flooring was laminate instead of carpet. The microwave and fridge looked like they were made in the 1980s. The sink was outside of the bathroom, so there was no privacy while getting ready. The staff was friendly, but don't stay here.2017-04-03"

"This motel was disgusting. The room smelled so bad that I gagged when I walked in. The alarm clock was blinking the wrong time, and the remote control battery was dead. The shower was stained and full of hair. The outer walkways were filthy, with piled-up trash, linens, and stained concrete. The check-in clerk clearly didn't want to be there, and seemed bothered just communicating with me. Don't stay here.2021-11-12"
"The motel was in a good location and was easy to access. No hair dryer in the room.2018-03-12"
"OK motel for the price. The room had a kitchenette, which was a nice surprise. Next time I'll bring food and utensils and do some cooking.. No in-room coffee, but there was coffee available in the lobby. Good place to stay, and bring your coffee pot.2016-09-06"
"Nice stay. Good, clean accommodations for a good price. The staff was pleasant, and breakfast was fair. I'd stay here again.2019-04-22"
"The motel clerk wasn't helpful or at all friendly. Instead of getting a 1st floor room as requested, we were given a room on the top floor at the far back of the building. Never got our requested wake-up call. The room itself was just OK. Don't stay here.2018-11-21"
"The room was clean, and the rates were reasonable. The motel clerk was courteous and professional. Nothing out of the ordinary happened.2018-11-07"
"I loved the new decor and furnishings at this motel. The staff was friendly and helpful, and there was a diner across the parking lot. This isn't your usual Econo Lodge.2019-09-30"
"I was not disappointed. My motel room was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, and the staff was friendly and helpful. The hair dryer was kept at the reception desk, not in the room. I've recommended this place to my colleagues and will definitely stay here again.2019-08-05"
"Reasonable rates. A clean, comfortable, decent motel, and it was quiet despite being close to the airport. It had been renovated fairly recently. Good AC and comfortable bed. The staff was friendly, and parking was convenient.2017-04-19"
"I was impressed. The motel clerk was extremely warm and helpful in getting me situated, and offered precise directions to my room as well as breakfast information. The checkout clerk was also friendly and pleasant. Stay here.2022-04-21"
"The bed was comfortable, and the bedding seemed new. All the lights from electronics in the room affected my sleep. No hot water for a shower in the morning, and there was some mold around the bathtub. The hotel staff could have been friendlier. You get what you pay for.2022-04-09"
"Close to downtown and the beach. The motel clerk was nice and personable.2021-11-07"
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.
