"Nice hotel overall, but it could've been cleaner. There was dirt around the entrance and elevators, and the carpets needed updating. The hallways weren't kept free of debris. The room was nice and clean, and the bed was OK. Poor water pressure in the shower. The check-in clerk wasn't rude, but she wasn't courteous or friendly. The continental breakfast adequate. Decent place to stay, but not a family vacation spot.2019-05-09"

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.
