"The hotel was clean and smelled nice. The rooms were great; mine was small, but my sister's suite was great for her family and dog. Long, dark drive from the thruway, but for a hotel in the middle of nowhere in upstate NY, it was good.2023-10-17"

"The hotel was clean, and we liked our room a lot. The bed was comfortable, but it was high and soft; I needed a running start to get in it since I'm short. All the employees we encountered were helpful and friendly. The pool area was clean, but I didn't like having to walk through the lobby to get there, and the bathroom was outside the pool area. Good breakfast. I definitely recommend staying here.2019-03-05"

"This motel was very basic and old, even though we were put in the "new" building. Our non-smoking room smelled like smoke. There was no exercise room. We planned to stay 3 nights, but left after 1.2015-05-05"

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.
