"The hotel room was comfortable, and check-in was quick. No restaurants at this exit.2021-05-16"
"We had to wait 30 minutes for the hotel clerk, and his personal hygiene was poor. The room felt dirty, and there was a thick layer of dust around the baseboards by the front door. Minimal breakfast with no attendant, and the juice and coffee were awful. Don't stay here.2021-05-02"
"We were given a room upgrade, but the hotel room didn't seem special. The bed faced the fridge. No fridge or alarm clock. The phone was on the desk across the room. There was a blinking red light under the TV. There was a shower, but no bathtub. The lone ice machine was far from the room.2019-04-11"

"The motel employees were friendly and nice, but this wasn't our best experience. The room smelled like stale smoke, and there were cigarette holes in one of the bedspreads. The carafe was missing from the coffee machine. I had to get a staff member to show me how to operate the shower. 2022-10-27"
"There was gum stuck on the bedposts, and there were bugs in the bathroom. I wouldn't stay at this motel again.2016-09-29"
"The room was great. I was impressed with the cleanliness as well as that of the hallways. Breakfast was exceptional. Don't lose your parking ticket, though. We lost ours and had to pay $35 to get our car out of the hotel lot.2022-05-06"
"I told the hotel clerk that my wife was in a wheelchair, but she gave us a room on the 4th floor at the very end of the building. The parking lot was a distance from the building, and there was no drop-off area.2021-03-12"

"The hotel was overpriced and merely adequate. I requested a lower-floor room, but was put on the 12th floor, where there was no ice machine. The room was small and had 2 non-working phones. The bed and pillows were less than comfortable. The shower drained slowly, and the knobs didn't work properly. No soap for the shower. Good dinner at the on-site restaurant. Stay here only if you need to be close to the convention center.2021-03-28"

"Nice hotel for the price. Clean, updated room. The beds were comfortable and had plenty of pillows, and the bathroom was exceptionally clean. The only negative was the people sitting on the outside stairs to smoke. We asked for a late checkout, and were bothered 3 times by people wanting to see if we were still there. If you're looking for a quality room for an affordable rate, this is a great choice.2021-07-14"
"This hotel wasn't the nicest place to stay, and it seemed overpriced. There was dog hair all over the room. The shower and shower curtain were dirty, and the toilet wasn't bolted to the floor. Don't stay here.2017-05-09"
"The hotel was located in a run-down area, and is run by very frugal management. The room had a microwave and fridge. No blanket on the bed, and no extra toilet paper provided. Paint was peeling off the shower walls. Nice, clean outdoor pool. The only working ice machine sat in an inch of standing water. No water available in the vending machine. Continental breakfast wasn't edible, and no coffee condiments were available.2015-09-08"
"The hotel was missing basic amenities. The beds were too soft, and we found a previous guest's pants in the closet. No exhaust fan or make-up mirror in the bathroom. We felt that the rates were too high due to a concert event in town.2019-07-30"
"The hotel was conveniently located, and the room, bed, and pillows were comfortable. Great breakfast options. 2015-11-19"

"My hotel room faced a building's heating and cooling units, and the staff wouldn't let me change rooms. I asked for extra coffee, but never got it as promised.2015-08-27"

I loved that HotelGuides helped me find a hotel. You can try to search for one yourself, but this service was so helpful. Just click on the section of the Interstate you are driving on and you see a list of hotels that actually have rooms available.
On place pages like this, we order hotels from lowest cost to highest – except we list low-rated hotels at the bottom of the page.
Most of our competitors order these same hotels in other ways that make them more money.
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.
