"The room was just average. There were low-riders in town, and the noise kept me from sleeping. There was a used bandage on the floor under the sink. The hotel clerk was nice, but I wouldn't stay here again.2023-10-04"
"This was my worst hotel experience ever. The room reeked of cigarette smoke, and the room was always either too hot or too cold. The phone, bathroom exhaust fan, and hair dryer didn't work. One side of the receptacle in the bathroom didn't work. I mistakenly left a blanket behind; I called and was told it would be mailed back to me, but after not hearing anything, I called back and was told the manager said it couldn't be mailed back to me. I'll never stay here again.2020-02-10"
"Our stay went well until the AC went out. There were no other rooms available. The hotel refunded the room rate, but kept the pet fees for nights we didn't stay.2016-06-26"
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.
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.
