"The motel was clean and extremely quiet, and the staff was pleasant. Be prepared to pay $5 a week for wireless Internet access. I'd definitely stay here again.2017-03-02"
"The motel was within walking distance of major malls. We were able to cook in our room, which was a high point. The front desk clerk wasn't informative about area attractions. We were visiting from another country, so some recommendations would've been nice.2015-08-24"
"Nice place for my dog and myself to live during repairs on my home.2015-01-21"

"Centrally located hotel; across the street from the theater. Beautiful room, and the bed was almost too comfortable. The cups were dirty, though. Staff was extremely helpful and welcoming. When they found out it was my birthday, they upgraded our room for free. When we misplaced our concert tickets, the valet ran back to our car and found them. Nearby restaurants were expensive, but we had food delivered from Filippio's, and it was affordable and delicious. In-room bottled water was warm and cost $4, but cold water was available in the vending machines for less.2015-03-10"

"A horrible experience. The hotel room was dirty and smelled like smoke, and there were beer bottles under the bed and ottoman. The chair was in poor condition, and the coffee pot was broken. There was no shower curtain. We've stayed here a number of times with no problem, but this room wasn't acceptable.2017-12-28"

"This motel is OK if you just need a place to sleep. The room was small but clean, and everything was serviceable. The downside was the traffic noise from the highway just outside. The continental breakfast ended at 9 AM.2016-09-29"

"My 1st room was fine, but when I extended my stay, I had to move to another room. The bed was small and there was mold in the bathroom. I asked for another room, and it also had a small bed. The dishes were dirty, and the chair was stained. The hotel staff came and removed the dirty items.2015-08-10"

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.
