"No hand soap in the bathroom, and not enough towels provided. The check-in clerk was about to end his shift and thought he was a standup comedian. I checked with the hotel clerk, and after a long delay in getting the items, I went back to the front desk and finally got soap and towels. The TV didn't work, so I was moved to another room. No daily housekeeping; I requested fresh towels and trash removal, but the housekeeper left the used towels on the floor. The pool wasn't open, a disappointment. I was disappointed.2024-02-12"

"Located in a good university area with lots of small restaurants nearby. A decent hotel for a short stay. Nothing luxurious, but it was clean and safe. Breakfast was small and plain. Parking cost $42 for 24 hours.2021-11-09"
"The bed was comfortable, but a double is small for 2 people. OK gym, though not great. Had free coffee in the morning, and free parking. Legends was disorganized and understaffed. If you stay at this hotel, be aware that there may be some confusion about what "free breakfast" means.2015-04-24"

"The hotel clerks and housekeepers were responsive. I enjoyed having access to the Club floor. However, on 2 nights, I was disturbed by the TV in the adjacent room, and on the 3rd night, I woke to a strong, peculiar, chemical-like smell. No room service, and no shuttle service to the hospitals.2023-03-17"

"The hotel room didn't have any heat; we were moved to another room, but there was no hot water in the morning for showers. The 9th floor was dirty, poorly lit, and the elevators didn't always work. Find another place to stay.2017-11-27"

HotelGuides made it easy to choose a hotel based on how far we wanted to get that day. Also liked being able to see the interstate interchange on the map to determine how far off the highway each hotel was.
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.
