"The beds were comfortable. The sliding door to the balcony in our room wouldn't open. We loved the omelet bar at breakfast. This hotel is a great place to stay.2017-08-11"
"The motel was in need of renovations. The bedsheets were old and worn. The check-in clerk wasn't knowledgeable about breakfast hours, and the tattoos on her hands were off-putting. Breakfast really wasn't the best. Find another place to stay.2016-12-04"
"The hotel sign was low and hard to see, so I drove right past it. Everything was clean, and an employee helped me get my suitcase up the stairs. No elevator and no microwave in the room. Breakfast ended at 9 AM.2019-06-02"

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.
