"We were pleasantly surprised when we saw the hotel lobby, but that changed when we walked into our room. The windows needed to be replaced; we could feel the wind blowing through them. The heater didn't adequately warm the room, though we had it on high. The "desk" was a piece of wood that was painted and attached to the wall and dresser. The door lock was falling off, and the bathroom door was hard to open. The walls were filthy, especially in the bathroom. We didn't feel safe at all. When I complained to the front desk clerk, she said the entire place was newly renovated. We'll never stay again and don't recommend.2015-03-03"

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.
