"A disgusting motel. There were broken beer bottles outside the room, and it smelled like marijuana every night. There were holes in the curtains, and the carpet was dirty. The mattress was old. Dirty shower with low water pressure. People hung out in the parking lot all night. Cheap rates, but you get what you pay for.2021-07-31"
"Located right off the freeway. The rates were competitive. The room walls had spots that could be washed off, and there was lots of dust around the AC. Limited towels provided. The employees were accommodating and friendly. Average breakfast, and the dining area was small.2019-11-04"

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.
