"No TV remote control in the room, though the clerk found one for me. We had to carry our luggage up the stairs. The window in back wouldn't fully close. Poor continental breakfast. Definitely not a place to stay for more than one night.2020-01-07"
"The motel room was clean and comfortable but smelled like cigarettes.2018-02-14"
"The motel room was musty and hot when we arrived, and the AC was so high that I couldn't reach the start button. The front desk clerk gave me directions twice, but I finally asked her to come start it. At 10:30 PM, the toilet overflowed. My elderly mother and I had to change rooms. Don't stay here.2016-07-15"
"The hotel and room were well-maintained and clean, and check-in went smoothly. The elevators needed updating. Poor breakfast; the selection was limited, and the sausage was awful. The shuttle to the cruise port was almost an hour late.2023-01-08"

"Nothing worked at this hotel; not the elevators, the key card readers, the TV, or WiFi. SThe AC was old and barely worked. There was a dehumidifier, but everything was damp in the morning. Worst of all, not the young employees who acted like high schoolers. The desk clerk ignored me and talked on her phone until I spoke up. In the middle of check-in, she started texting. She gave us the wrong room key, so we had to return to the desk and get the right key. The morning clerk yelled about her health issues and how the problems weren't her fault. Don't stay here.2023-03-10"
"There were cockroaches in the room and bathroom. Don't stay at this hotel.2020-02-13"
"Bring ear plugs if you get a room facing I-95. There was an on-ramp right next to the hotel that was used by a lot of trucks. There was a $1 fee for the in-room safe.2020-01-03"
"The hotel was reasonably priced, and the room was clean. The staff was nice and helpful. Not much in the area, though. I'd stay here again. 2023-04-05"
"A nice, clean hotel in a quiet, peaceful location. Book it.2021-06-19"

"My only issue with this hotel was that there wasn't enough body soap in the shower.2022-10-19"
"The hotel room smelled bad, the carpet was dirty, and the sink was clogged. Stay somewhere else.2022-02-16"
"I wasn't able to check in when I arrived at 5 PM; the hotel clerk said something about a large group showing up; I ended up being late to my event because of it. The toilet overflowed; I asked the hotel clerk to have it taken care of while I was out, but that didn't happen. It was fixed when I complained for a 2nd time. The room was fine other than that. Breakfast wasn't free.2021-01-28"
"The hotel room was clean, comfortable, and fairly priced. Check-in and checkout went smoothly. Few restaurants within walking distance. It took about an hour to get picked up at the airport after I called the hotel, and the pickup instructions were confusing; it took 3 phone calls to sort it out. The staff was helpful in getting transportation to our cruise ship, but the transportation company was slow and disorganized. I'd stay here again.2023-03-04"
"Great hotel and staff.2019-11-08"

"About 15 minutes from the airport and 10 minutes from restaurants on the shore. The room was OK, but the construction was an issue. Nice hotel staff and great airport shuttle.2018-03-14"
"Nice experience. The continental breakfast was better than I've had at other hotels.2016-10-13"

"The hotel was clean. Breakfast was nice, but it ended at 9 AM.2023-12-02"
"The room was fine, but it smelled bad and the door was hard to open and close. The beds were quite comfortable. Our GPS took us to the wrong hotel, and when we called for directions, the hotel clerk couldn't even tell us which major road the hotel was off of. 2023-02-24"
"Between the maintenance man and the housekeepers, the hotel staff went out of their way to accommodate us. Stay here.2021-08-20"

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.
