"We were traveling with a service animal, and there was plenty of outdoor space near the hotel. Not many restaurants in the area, though. Eat before you arrive.2017-05-23"
"Nice, clean, up-to-date hotel with kind personnel. Breakfast was good. The only problem was that I could hear the people upstairs walking around, housekeepers vacuuming, and it wasn't because people were being noisy. The hallways and elevators were freezing cold, too. Both issues were bothersome. Nice pool and whirlpool. The lobby and breakfast room were inviting and orderly.2019-12-12"
"The hotel was pet friendly. Our room was comfortably large and fairly clean. There was a bit of a wet dog odor, but I didn't expect perfection.

This was a good choice for travelers with pets, and there was a good restaurant across the street.2018-12-28"

"The motel was easy to find from the interstate. Quick access to restaurants, and there was a gas station across the street. The room met our needs, but wasn't anything special. Nice greeting at the front desk. We especially enjoyed the grounds, with waterfalls, koi ponds, and the Wasatch Range in the distance. It was special. Terrific breakfast.2022-05-10"

"My hotel stay was awful. Kids ran up and down the hallways and played loud music. I called the front desk, and they told them twice to be quiet. At 4 AM, a loudspeaker went off with someone saying, "Attention, we have an announcement." This happened twice. Don't stay here.2021-02-08"

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.
