"The motel was fine, but there was no daily housekeeping, and no breakfast was provided. I did like that I was able to get a smoking room, and that I could park right outside my room door.2021-07-03 "
"The location was convenient, but the room was old and the front desk clerk was harried. I wouldn't stay here again.2021-05-31 "
"The price was right. Small but clean room. The beds were too firm; I might as well have been sleeping on the sidewalk. The motel staff was nice. 2019-05-16 "

"The hotel was relatively old, but the room was large and the beds were fine. The fridge should've been on a small table instead of on the floor. Good breakfast area by the pool, and the food was more than adequate. The elevators were a little slow, but the staff was friendly and parking was good.2019-04-17 "

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.
To us, motels are smaller lodgings that have rooms you can enter directly from the parking area.hotels , on the other hand, you can enter your room only through a hall inside the building.
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? -
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.
