"The motel was adequate and right on Highway 395 in a rural area. The room was clean, but rather cramped with 2 king beds.2019-06-20"
"The motel was nice and recently remodeled. The bed was fine, and the fridge had a freezer section. Nice front desk clerks. Breakfast was basic but fine for this level of property. Choose an upstairs room if you don't want to hear people walking around overhead. There was an elevated driveway around the back so there's access to 2nd floor rooms without climbing stairs.2017-09-03"

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.
