"The room was clean and comfortable. The only negative was that the AC didn't work well, so it was warm at night. Great housekeepers; they were very sweet. Nice, helpful staff. The front desk clerk went out of his way to get milk for my baby so I didn't have to go out late at night. Lots of options at the continental breakfast. Highly recommend this hotel. ]2015-04-07"

"The hotel room was dirty. There were glass rings on the tables, the shower wasn't clean, and the whirlpool jets were filthy. I complained and was given another room. When I called to get a wake-up call, the clerk admonished me and said the 1st room wasn't dirty. Never got the wake-up call. No one was at the front desk when I checked out, but there was a basket for room keys. Find another place to stay.2023-07-31"

"This was the filthiest motel I've ever been in. The room smelled like mildew and cheap air freshener. The bedsheets were yellow, there were holes in the bedspread, a hole in the wall, a hole over the shower, and hair and dirt all along the carpet by the sink. The carpet was stained and the curtains were torn. We asked for our money back and went somewhere else. Don't stay here.2015-08-18"
"This hotel wasn't worth the price. I heard continuous noise from upstairs. There was trash in the kitchen, and the furniture in the dining area was dirty. Housekeeping didn't provide enough facial tissue, toilet paper, towels, or toiletries. I wouldn't stay here again.2022-03-30"
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.
