"The hotel was dirty. I asked for kitchen supplies and was given 2 of everything and no coffee mugs. The recliner didn't recline, and the arms were sticky. The bedspread didn't look clean and had burn holes. No complimentary coffee and no ice machine on-site. There was trash in the hallway. Stay somewhere else.2017-10-12"
"I was disappointed with this hotel. It was undergoing major renovation, and the entrance was in shambles. Even the hallways were stripped down to bare plywood, and the ceiling was open, showing wiring. No hair dryer in the room, and the phone didn't work. The pool and exercise room were closed, and the ice machine didn't work. The continental breakfast was a bag with an apple, an expired granola bar, and bottle of water. Don't stay here.2023-03-13"
"The hotel was being renovated, and every time I walked into the building, I started wheezing. The room had low ceilings. Stay somewhere else.2022-08-29"
"The room temperature was hard to regulate. The microwave in our room was unplugged, and we couldn't reach the outlet to plug it in. The hotel clerk who baked fresh cookies went above and beyond for us. The pool water was too cold. I didn't like the instant oatmeal at breakfast, and there wasn't enough fresh fruit. The restaurant hostess was exceptional, though; she was really friendly and helpful. 2020-02-12"

"There were cigarette butts by the exterior doors, and my non-smoking room smelled like smoke. The floor was dirty. After an hour, we decided not to stay. The staff was apologetic. Don't stay at this hotel.2018-05-28"

"Convenient to the northern metro area. Easy to access. We wanted to check in early, and the hotel clerk was so helpful in making it happen. All the employees were friendly and welcoming. No continental breakfast.2015-05-19"
"Nice hotel, but there was a $50 deposit that I didn't expect. The lobby wasn't conducive to doing business since it was right by the front desk.2023-06-30"
"Good value. The hotel was quiet, pleasant, and clean. Someone upstairs made a lot of noise walking around from about midnight until 1:30 AM.2022-09-15"
"The bedsheets on one bed didn't look clean, and one pillowcase was dirty. The hotel staff was nice.2022-06-13"
"I stayed at this hotel for 5 nights and never got a washcloth and was never asked if I needed clean towels. I had to hunt down an employee to get a roll of toilet paper. The garbage piled up in my room since there was no housekeeping service. At least maintenance was quick to fix the TV. The ice machine never worked. My cat wouldn't drink the tap water; I had to purchase bottled water for him. I liked the continental breakfast, but there were never any plastic knives. The laundry facility was great. Bring your own supplies.2021-11-08"
"Good hotel if you're traveling with pets. The room wasn't that clean, and ours had a pet odor. Not a great place, but it did the job.2017-11-25"

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.
