"The hotel lobby and exterior were attractive, but the room left a lot to be desired. The bed was comfortable, but the furniture looked like it was from the 1960s, and the chairs were uncomfortable. The sink and shelves underneath looked hand-made, and the towel rack was rusty. Nice shower, though. The hair dryer only blew cold air, so it took forever to dry my hair. Breakfast was tasty, but the eggs and sausage were cold. I was disappointed and don't recommend staying here.2021-05-22"

HotelGuides makes it easy to find hotels that are pet friendly. I also like the ease of changing reservations and that I don’t have to pay in advance.

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.
