"The hotel was old, smelled bad, and didn't have an elevator. The ceiling tiles were dirty and loose, and there was no AC in the hallway. After lugging our baggage upstairs, we found that our key didn't work, so we had to go back downstairs to get a working key. On a positive note, the room was clean, nicely appointed, and recently renovated. The bathroom countertop looked like granite, which was a nice touch. The WiFi was unreliable; I had to use my mobile hot spot. The event area was nice, and the catered food was good. Lots of restaurants within walking distance.2019-05-23"
"Close to the mall and restaurants. Room was clean, and the microwave and mini-fridge were a great plus. Hotel staff was pleasant and welcoming. Good breakfast with nice variety. A wonderful stay.2015-03-16"
"We didn't get a 1st floor room as requested, and the TV and phone didn't work. We were able to change rooms the 2nd night, but housekeeping only changed the bedsheets and put the dirty dishes in the dishwasher. I had to go back to the front desk and request vacuuming, but no one ever came. I won't stay at this hotel again.2018-02-07"
"My granddaughter became ill at breakfast, and the staff immediately cleaned it up and got a cool cloth for her. They were sweet and personable and made my granddaughter feel OK about the embarrassing situation. Be aware that there are 2 Marriott hotels in the area.2019-01-13"

"The hotel was conveniently located, and the room was nice and clean. Fast check-in and helpful front desk clerks. Breakfast could've been better, though; the selections were limited. I recommend staying here.2016-11-14"
"The hotel was clean, and everything was pleasant. We've stayed here a number of times.2023-08-15"
"The hotel room had a terrible odor the entire time we stayed, and there was dog excrement in the corner. There were food crumbs all over the breakfast area. The floor needed vacuuming, and there was dirt and dust caked around the fridge and microwave.2023-04-03"
"The hotel was fine but nothing special.2019-06-24"
"Two lamps in the 1st room didn't work, so I was moved. One lamp in the 2nd room didn't work. The shower water was lukewarm, even at 2 AM. No phone in the room, and no card with a phone number for the front desk. The room was clean, and the bed was comfortable.2022-11-03"
"The motel was clean. Great cable TV.2021-12-11"
"The motel was economical and convenient to I-40. The room was clean, but some of the furniture was worn. Friendly, helpful employees. I'd stay here again.2019-09-23"

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.
