"Everything was fine until we found leftover food in the fridge. There was hair on the shower walls. When I told the hotel clerk, he said no other rooms were available and he could give me gloves and a trash bag so I could clean up myself. Not my greatest experience. Don't stay here.2018-06-07"
"The bedsheets were dirty, and there was dog hair in the beds. The towels and washcloths weren't clean. When I called the front desk, the hotel clerk said the cleaning staff left early. She brought clean sheets, but we had to make the beds ourselves and the bedding was scratchy. The shower water was barely lukewarm. I don't recommend staying here.2017-06-15"

"The hotel room was clean, odor-free, and nicely furnished. We had a view of a pretty green space. Firm mattress with 4 fluffy pillows. The AC and coffee pot worked fine; we didn't use the fridge or iron. The handicap bathroom had a new tile floor and sink and was quite clean. Plenty of towels, washcloths, and bath mats provided. Breakfast had plenty of variety.2017-10-02"
"A fire alarm woke me twice during the night I stayed at this hotel, and no explanation was given. On a positive note, the beds were comfortable. The room lighting wasn't great if you want to read while your companion sleeps. Plenty of choices at breakfast.2017-10-10"

"The motel was shabby and poorly maintained, and the room wasn't clean enough. I requested a handicap room, but the bathtub was slippery and didn't have grab bars. The stairway smelled like urine.

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.
