"Not worth the price. The hotel employees were nice, but the room was filthy. Even the toilet hadn't been cleaned. The carpet turned the bottom of our feet black.

"You get what you pay for. The hotel was simple and fairly clean, and the lobby was inviting. Average room, but it was quiet. The desk chair was broken and tilted when I sat in it. The carpet needed to be replaced, and we found someone's shoes under the bed. Housekeeping only made one bed the 2nd day. Carb-heavy breakfast. There was only one, slow elevator. Go with low expectations and you won't be disappointed.2017-11-19"

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.
