"The motel was the perfect place to stay during a fall weekend. The room on the river side was beautiful, quiet, and nicely appointed. The staff was friendly, but service in the dining room was slow, even when it wasn't busy. Apologies were offered, but it didn't translate into better service. 2016-10-17"
"The motel was close to lots of amenities.2016-07-22"
"The motel staff was fantastic. Breakfast was enjoyable, and it was nice being able to get coffee any time of day. Unfortunately, other guests were loud and inconsiderate.2017-10-26"
"There were mattresses and a toilet in the food area, which was closed because of Covid. We were told not to use the bathtub in the room. We had issues with the TV. Don't stay at this motel.2021-07-12"
"The motel was run-down and needed a lot of work. Basic, reasonably clean room. The employees were OK, but didn't go out of their way for guests. Keep looking.2015-08-10"
"The motel room was clean but basic. Check-in was uneventful, but a $100 damage deposit was required. The pool was a bit dirty, but it was under many trees; the kids enjoyed it. The child-friendly breakfast was a plus. OK place to stay.2016-08-29"
"Good location near shops. The hotel staff was friendly and helpful, but housekeeping could have done a better job. I found hair in the bedding and the shower.2021-02-28"

"An awesome, dog-friendly hotel right on the lake. It was newly renovated and had great employees and a good complimentary breakfast. We'll definitely stay here again.2018-02-05"
"You only get what you pay for at this motel. OK beds, but I heard a lot of traffic noise from the highway. The toilet didn't work properly. Adequate breakfast.2015-09-18"
"The room could've been cleaner, and the whirlpool was out of order. This is a last-resort motel. Fine for our needs, but it wouldn't be our first choice.2015-07-22"
"The entire motel needed updating, but it was clean and sufficient if you just need a place to shower and sleep. There were smoking rooms in our wing, and our non-smoking room smelled a bit musty. The beds were pretty comfortable. There was a convenient exterior door to the parking lot so we could easily load and unload our ski equipment. Be prepared for a budget place where things are clean but old.2020-02-17"

"Good motel stay. No elevator, though. The room was clean, and the rates were economical. The hallway carpet could've been cleaner.2017-09-18"
"The room wasn't very nice for the price. The mattress cover didn't properly fit the bed, and the towels were rough. The only reason we stayed was because the hotel was pet-friendly. Consider other options.2017-08-13"

I loved that HotelGuides helped me find a hotel. You can try to search for one yourself, but this service was so helpful. Just click on the section of the Interstate you are driving on and you see a list of hotels that actually have rooms available.
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.
