"My experience at this motel was mixed. The employees were nice and the continental breakfast was good, but the room smelled strongly of disinfectant and needed fresh paint. The pillows were ridiculously small and square. Not a great value.2017-08-15"

"The motel room wasn't ready at 6 PM, and there was only one housekeeper to clean all the rooms. No jetted tub as we expected, and the shower didn't work. There was no one in the office when we left at 6 AM. A total disappointment.2021-08-16"

"OK part of town. There were some patched and unpainted spots in the bathroom, and the hair dryer was dirty. The key card reader needed new batteries the 2nd day, and then we had to have the key cards re-set. Nice hotel staff. The elevator shimmied a bit, and my son refused to ride it.2016-05-17"
"Close to Bayshore Mall, Ft. Humbolt. Easy access to Harris Street. Nice hotel. I loved the garden area with the croaking frogs. Check-in was a snap, and there was a nice selection of food at breakfast. Stay here.2017-06-20"
"Easy access to the freeway. Right across from a restaurant and bar, so bring ear plugs if you're sensitive to noise. The room was clean, and I liked having a fridge, microwave, and coffee maker. The beds were clean, and the free wireless Internet was appreciated. Nice staff and yummy continental breakfast, especially the Belgian waffles. It was wonderful being able to park right outside our motel room. 2017-02-23"

"This was a reasonable, high-end motel. The grounds were well-tended, and the room was spotless. Our room was large, and we didn't have to crawl over the bed to get to the bathroom. The employees were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was plentiful. Definitely consider staying here.2015-07-19"
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.
