"The renovation was obvious; the hotel was quite nice. But I've never encountered a less professional staff. The housekeeper cleaned the room but not the bathroom, no one could answer my questions, and I had to tell the bartender how to make a martini. They all complained about their jobs. One morning the front desk clerk was sound asleep and snoring in a chair n the lobby. Don't stay here.2019-04-07"

"The hotel was clean and affordable, but the layout was weird. Noise echoed in the room, and the chair was hard. The bed was uncomfortable, and there was nowhere in the shower for shampoo and soap. The check-in clerks acted like they didn't know what to do. I wasn't given any information about the WiFi password or breakfast hours. Breakfast was in a back room way down the hall. I was glad I only stayed for one night.2019-05-29"

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.
