"The hotel room was clean and comfortable, with ample towels, a hair dryer, an iron and ironing board. No issues with late check-in. I got a room near the reception desk as requested. Nice breakfast buffet with freshly-prepared meats and eggs. The chef made sure I had whatever I wanted. When I was waiting in the lobby for a my ride, I was given a remote control so I could watch what I wanted on TV. I had a quiet and pleasant stay.2021-10-30"

"Close to the airport and Front Street restaurants. No airport shuttle, though. The buffet breakfast was good, and it was prepared earlier than I expected.2015-10-16"
"Good hotel. The only downside is that the water on the slides wasn't running all the time, and the sink in our room didn't drain well. Our keys didn't work half the time. Get a room with a balcony.2020-12-04"

"The lightbulb above the sink was burned out in my room, but everything else was OK. Unfortunately, my elderly father's hotel room had more problems. He had to request a remote control for the TV. The sink didn't work properly, and there was old food under the stool. My brother-in-law had to fix the toilet seat in his room. The restaurant food and service were good.2016-09-13"
"The check-in clerk didn't know how to direct us to our room, and didn't provide any information about the property. The bathtub was in need of a heavy-duty cleaning. The hallways were dirty. There was only one elevator, and we waited 20 minutes for it since my husband can't climb stairs. I was totally disappointed with this hotel.2015-08-09"

"Nice hotel and room, and the bed was comfortable. Pleasant employees, but staffing seemed minimal. No towels in the room, and there was no one at the front desk when I went to get some. The ice machine on my floor didn't work, so I had to go to the 1st floor. 2021-09-26"

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.
