"Check-in at this hotel was scary. Two armed guards met our taxi in the parking area, and the lobby desk was shielded by bullet-proof glass. Two couples were arguing with the desk clerk. Think about staying somewhere else.2015-11-13"
"There were people hanging around the hotel. The lobby was dark, and there were electrical wires hanging from the ceiling; it looked like it was under construction. The fridge in our room was noisy, and so was the heater; it was hard to get any sleep. We couldn't wait to check out.2023-01-19"
"The hotel employees were cordial and helpful.2019-01-16"
"There was a leak in the kitchen, so I wasn't able to cook properly for 24 hours. The sofa bed was so uncomfortable that my business partner and I ended up sharing the king bed. Smaller weights in the exercise room would've been nice. Didn't like the disposable dishes at breakfast. Other than that, it was an OK hotel. The staff was nice.2015-11-12"
"Other guests on my floor were intoxicated and noisy all night. Lots of elevator traffic. I asked the front desk clerk to send someone up, but nothing was done. Stay somewhere else.2022-12-12"
"The hotel was in an office building. The room was clean.NoMa was a nice addition, and there were other restaurants nearby.2018-10-14"
"Average hotel. It wasn't what I expected. I probably wouldn't stay here again.2016-10-18"
"The room was small, and the TV channel selection was limited. So was parking. Breakfast was good, though.2017-08-11"
"Far from everything in the city. I didn't feel safe staying at this hotel alone. There was a sign saying no visitors were allowed after 10 PM. There was a loud argument in the room next to mine. My non-smoking room reeked of smoke masked by some awful fragrance. Housekeeping didn't come by until 5 PM. Don't recommend staying here.2015-08-12"
"Fairly nice hotel in a kind of scary neighborhood. The hotel and room were small, but OK for an overnight stay. Nice breakfast buffet. Small lot, so parking was extremely limited.2015-07-10"

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.
