"The $100 security deposit was an unpleasant surprise. I won't stay at this motel again.2020-09-13"
"Good location. The motel room was clean but a bit too small to maneuver my wheelchair. The staff was friendly. Nice place if you're not handicapped.2018-08-03"
"I requested a refrigerator and microwave, but never got them. The phone in my motel room didn't work, and only one screw was holding the safety latch on the door. The continental breakfast was barely OK. Don't stay here.2016-07-23"
"Good rates, if you're willing to sacrifice comfort. The AC was old and so loud that it kept me up all night. No soap, shampoo, or conditioner provided. No information about the hotel in the room.2021-05-15"
"The hotel room and bathroom were large, clean, and comfortable, but I didn't have a view and the soundproofing was poor. I couldn't sleep because of the noise. The casino had a nice atmosphere, and I got an excellent hamburger in the food court. Ask for a room on a quiet floor.2018-05-24"

"The hotel was old and dirty and smelled like body odor and cigarettes. We couldn't open the window for fresh air. The wallpaper in my room was peeling, the curtains were filthy, and I found toenail clippings on the bathroom floor. The bathtub looked like it hadn't been thoroughly cleaned for months. Stay somewhere else.2020-02-17"
"The WiFi was expensive and awful. The parking garage wasn't attached to the hotel; it was unsafe, and the walk to the building was even more so.2020-08-21"
"The hotel was clean and quiet. I loved staying here and recommend it.2016-03-14"
"The hotel was safe, and the rates were low. The bathroom was disassembled, with pipes and parts everywhere, so I was moved to another room. The 2nd room was fantastic. The hallways were dated, though, and the carpet was in bad shape. Parking was awful.2019-10-11"

Breakfast was hot and tasty, and there was a nice selection of food. The seating area wasn't crowded.2019-01-26"

"Great room and amenities. Unfortunately, there was a party in the hotel parking lot at night that included loud music, drinking, and pot smoking. We complained to the front desk staff, and they were able to resolve the situation. At 4 AM, we heard someone slamming their door, which caused our dog to bark. The pet area was in terrible condition; the grass needed to be mowed, and the lighting was poor. Overall, our stay was terrible.2020-05-07"
"Away from downtown, but close enough to enjoy Reno. The hotel was clean and pet friendly, and the room was comfortable. Nice place to stay.2020-01-05"
"The motel was inexpensive and near the airport. The room was clean, and the AC worked. The fiberglass bathtub bent underfoot and made loud popping noises. No complimentary airport shuttle, and no breakfast.2021-06-02"
"I didn't initially get a handicap room as requested, so I had to wait for one. The room had cockroaches, and the carpet was stained. Not enough electrical outlets. There was mold in the shower. Don't stay here.2019-08-21"

"The motel was in need of basic maintenance. The 1st room we were given had dirty walls with peeling wallpaper. The drapes were torn and wouldn't stay closed, and the TV didn't work. We were finally moved to another room. It was slightly cleaner, but the coffee pot and lamp didn't work, and there was no microwave. The heater was old and rattled when I turned up the blower. The bed covers were dirty and stained. The continental breakfast was minimal but OK. Stay somewhere else.2020-01-10"
"Close to the airport with a good shuttle. The hotel room was clean and comfortable, but the showerhead was stuck on hard massage.2019-11-12"

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.
