"My hotel room was dirty, and the carpet was stained. There were no dishes in the kitchen, and when we asked for cups, we got cheap plastic ones. The bathroom smelled bad, and there was dirt around the edges. The lobby smelled like marijuana.2015-04-18"
"The 1st room had no heat at all, and the 2nd room door opened without using a key card. The floors were unsteady. Not a good motel stay.2021-04-14"
"The 1st room was a smoking room, so I had to request a change. The 2nd room didn't have a deadbolt lock, and I heard people making noise outside at 2 AM. The motel was sketchy; avoid it.2018-03-30"
"The motel was due for a major renovation; the carpeting, furniture, and paint were all more than worn out. The shower water fluctuated between hot and cold. The staff did the best they could considering the age and condition of the property. I suggest finding another place to stay.2017-06-20"
"The surrounding area was unsafe, but the room and hotel staff were good. Don't bring a pet you'll need to walk at night.2021-05-05"

"Right downtown and near I-5. The hotel had nice curb appeal and was new and clean. Great furnishings and finishes. Nice staff.2015-07-13"
"The other guests at this motel made me uncomfortable. Nothing worked. The door handles were broken, and there were no towels. The beds were full-sized, not queen-sized. Don't stay here.2019-08-21"
"The entire motel was dingy and felt creepy. Our room was falling apart, though it was clean. The wallpaper was peeling and the carpet was stained. All the furniture was scratched and banged up, and the alarm clock was from the '80s and didn't work. There were holes in the bedsheets. The mini-fridge was cemented into the corner of the room. We could readily enter the adjoining room. When we turned on one of the lamps, it began to smoke from dust build-up. The large whirlpool bathtub was old and stained, and all the plumbing fixtures had rust. Even the continental breakfast was bad. This place had no saving grace.2015-03-05"
"Motel was affordable, nice, and clean.2015-02-17"
"The room wasn't ready at check-in time. No housekeeping service at all, and no bolt on the room door. We had to take our dirty towels to the front desk to exchange them for clean ones. It took 2 trips to the front desk to get working keys. Don't stay at this hotel.2019-01-16"
"OK rates.The hotel was nice and clean, but the room was small and didn't have dishes. I'd stay again.2017-07-14"
"The room was clean and comfortable. The lobby was small and uninviting. I got lost and needed directions to the hotel, but no one answered the phone. When I arrived and mentioned it, the clerk said they'd been busy, then took a call while waiting on me.2018-01-23"
"Not a good value, and not a good experience. Don't stay at this hotel.2015-10-03"

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.
