"The hand-held showerhead was broken. There was a used towel in the armoire, and the bedsheets were stained. Good motel staff.2020-11-16"
"The motel was nothing special. Look for other options.2018-09-19"
"After a long day on the road, we appreciated the warm welcome from the check-in clerk. The hotel had been nicely renovated. Our room and bathroom were spacious, and everything was spotless. The bed was comfortable, and we got a good night's sleep. Good coffee at the continental breakfast, and the attendant kept the food replenished and the tables clean. Stay here if you're looking for a good value and comfortable accommodations. Try the Brickyard Cafe in the town's main square.2018-04-23"
"The motel room smelled a little musty, but it was clean. The front desk clerks were nice and accommodating. We'd stay here again.2016-06-22"
"Good place to stay for a reasonable price. My only complaint was that the motel clerk was rude because I reserved for 1 person instead of 3; however, I'd put in the comments that there would be 3 adults.2016-03-24"
"I had an unpleasant stay at this motel. I was given a smoking room; there were burn holes in the bedspread, and someone used the bathtub as an ashtray. It smelled so bad that it was hard to sleep. We couldn't wait to leave. Don't stay here.2021-05-09"
"Good location. The motel staff was friendly. I'd stay here again.2016-09-20"
"The hotel room was damp and smelled musty, but it was spacious and nicely decorated. Being an accessible room, the bathroom was large enough to easily accommodate a wheelchair. The checkout clerk didn't bother to ask how our stay was. Lots of choices at breakfast, and the food was good.2023-07-17"
"Easy access to the interstate. The hotel was clean and quiet. We've stayed here before and will stay here again.2022-11-17"
"The room was clean and comfortable, and the hotel staff was friendly. We were happy we stayed here.2022-01-31"
"The motel was nearly unoccupied, but I was given a room that was too warm and had an old AC that sounded like a jet taking off. I'd asked for a smoke-free room, but it smelled like an ashtray. The carpet was sticky, and the TV wasn't connected to anything. The linens were scratchy and stained. The bathroom tile was dangerously slippery. You won't find a room near the interstate for much less, but you get what you pay for.2023-08-27"

"The motel manager called me to come down and pay the pet fee. He was rude. Don't recommend staying here.2015-08-20"
I’ve been using HotelGuides for over 8 years. The agents are very helpful, and they try to accommodate every request. I like that when they email a booking confirmation to you, they include the hotel's address as well as its interstate exit number.
We order the hotels on this page by how close they are to this attraction.
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.
