"Safe location near almost everything. The room was comfortable. I was pleased with the hotel, staff, and amenities. From check-in to checkout, I was provided with excellent service. I used the express checkout, but the front desk clerks asked if we enjoyed our stay and welcomed us back as we were leaving. I definitely recommend staying here.2017-03-21"

"Rates seemed high for a hotel located in the middle of nowhere. Hotel was nice, but the room was spartan and amenities were nonexistent. A mediocre place to stay.2015-01-22"

"The hotel was quite basic and not worth the price. The room was dirty and smelled bad, and the staff wasn't friendly. There are plenty of other options.2018-12-29"
"The hotel staff was friendly and helpful. This is the place to stay.2018-01-22"

"Staff was friendly. We had a pleasant stay.2015-01-16"
"The motel was a little better than average, but the WiFi was terrible.2018-07-09"
"The motel room was hot when I arrived, and it took a few hours to cool off after I turned off the AC. There was a slight smell of mildew. The curtains didn't fully close, so light came in the window. No alarm clock. There seemed to be a lot of paperwork at checkout, and I didn't like that my ID was copied. Consider other options.2018-06-28"

"My non-smoking room was in a smoking section of the hotel, and it smelled terrible.2015-04-21"

"The hotel wasn't clean. The mattress was OK, but the headboard was dirty. Good water pressure in the shower, but the paint job in the bathroom was poor. The electrical outlet in the bathroom didn't work, and the smell of smoke came in through the exhaust. The wallpaper in the bathroom odd the lobby was peeling. There was trash and food spills in the elevators and hallways. The only ice machine was on the ground floor. Only decaf coffee was available. Don't stay here.2022-04-03"
"The 1st room had peeling paint, and the bathroom was dirty and had black mold. No hair dryer in the 2nd room, and no shower caps were available. Stay at another hotel.2016-11-29"
"Great price. The hotel was nice and clean, though there was some work being done. The maintenance man was helpful in assisting with our sick child. Great staff. Highly recommend.2016-04-02"
"Not worth the price. Hotel was updating, but was quite dirty, and paint chips were coming off the walls and ceiling. Check-in clerk was rude.2015-02-07"
"The hotel room was clean, and so was the pool. Nice staff.2022-06-22"
"The hotel was great and really clean, but someone broke into our vehicle while it was parked on the road on the side of the building.2016-12-01"
"The housekeepers were noisy outside my 1st floor room. An OK hotel stay overall.2015-05-28"
"Good hotel. Room was nice and clean, but I thought the beds and pillows were a bit uncomfortable. Staff was helpful and accommodating. I had a pleasant stay overall.2015-02-19"
"The hotel room was filthy. There was food on the floor. No vanity or mirrors. Don't stay here.2021-05-26"
"Don't waste your money at this hotel. The room was damp, had bugs, and smelled bad, and the light fixture was full of bugs. There was hair in the bathtub, and the toilet wasn't bolted to the floor.2018-08-12"
"The hotel was under construction. The bed was comfortable, but that was the only positive. The TV listed 114 stations but only got 64, and the remote control didn't work. Breakfast was paltry at best. Not a good stay.2017-02-15"
"The hotel was old and outdated. OK if you just need a place to sleep.2016-06-03"

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.
