"The hotel room smelled like dog and dog urine. Don't stay on the 1st floor.2021-06-16"
"A terrible experience. I requested a 1st floor room and got a room on the 2nd floor instead, despite having a disability. I tried to call the front desk several times, but no one answered the phone. I limped down to request a wake-up call, and then never got the call. The hallway floor felt unstable. No continental breakfast. The parking lot had deep potholes. I don't recommend staying here.2020-05-29"

"The hotel was run-down and needed major remodeling.2018-03-01"

"Our 1st floor room was spacious and had 12-foot ceilings, so it felt huge. We had a great stay and recommend this hotel.2021-04-29"
"Good location, and the price was right. Unfortunately, our hotel room wasn't locked when we arrived, and the bed looked like someone had slept on it. The was crushed candy on the floor, an empty jug on the vanity, and a spray can on the kitchen counter. The bathtub was filthy. We were moved to another room; it wasn't much better, but the bathroom was clean. The flat surfaces were not. No duvet cover. The sofa was stained, and there were items left behind from previous guests in the drawers and fridge. The coffee area wasn't clean, and the towels were threadbare. The floor needed vacuuming. The grab and go breakfast was a farce. I'd never stay here again.2021-04-03"

"I found threads and a screw in the carpet in my room. I also found a razer cover in the shower, and the soap shelf wasn't clean. No housekeeping service after our 1st night. On our last day, a housekeeping came in the room without knocking at 9 AM. The toilet ran unless we pulled up the handle. Our key cards didn't work the 2nd night. Choose another hotel.2016-11-08"

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.
