"The hotel was dingy and dirty. Needed fresh paint and new decor. I spent 40 minutes trying to find the check-in address. Excellent breakfast. Don't stay here.2021-09-30"
"This was my 5th stay at this hotel. It's always clean, and breakfast is good. The staff provides service with a smile. Stay here.2018-07-26"
"This hotel was undergoing a complete renovation and was an active work zone. The hammering, constant movement of workers and debris went on well into the night and early the next morning. The beds were clean and comfortable. The bathroom was clean, but the bathtub was filthy because of a drainage problem. The heater stopped working on a frigid night. Our stay ended well because we weren't charged for it. Don't stay here until the work is completed.2016-02-16"

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.
