"The hotel was close to Lexington Medical Center. There was no one at the front desk when I checked out, so I wasn't able to get a printed receipt.2019-06-23"
"Just across the street from the medical center. The room was clean, attractive, and better than I expected. Check-in was efficient, and the clerk was friendly. I definitely recommend this hotel.2018-12-23"
"The hotel was extremely comfortable and sanitary. I had a quiet and restful stay. The only thing I'd change about our room was a bit more space between the bed and desk to maneuver the chair. Nutritional choices and excellent coffee at breakfast. Stay here.2020-07-03"
"The hotel room was tiny and didn't have a microwave or fridge. There was nowhere to put my belongings. I requested a room change; the 2nd room was the same except the bed was bigger. The curtains wouldn't close all the way, so the sun came in the room. I tried calling the front desk for 30 minutes, but no one ever answered. I wasn't happy and don't recommend staying here.2018-04-17"
"The room was clean, and the front desk clerk was extremely pleasant and helpful. The hotel paid for our transportation to the airport when the shuttle wasn't running, which was great.2017-06-06"
"The key card for my motel room kept malfunctioning, and I had to go to the front desk several times to sort it out. The room was dark and had no overhead light. Not enough toilet paper provided. No elevator, and all 4 of the ice machines were broken. Bring your own ice and toilet paper.2023-12-30"
"The motel room was clean but dark. The employees were friendly.2022-11-28"

"The motel was a bit out of the way. The 1st room smelled strongly of smoke, so I asked for a room change. The 2nd room had a strong mint smell, but that was acceptable. The room was a little worn and didn't have the best soundproofing, but I didn't expect much else for the price. The motel was fine for a place to sleep, but I wouldn't want my daughter to stay there by herself.2015-05-04"
"Affordable motel, but housekeeping was awful. We asked for a 1st floor room and were put in a pet room, even though we didn't have a pet. The carpet smelled like urine, and there was old garbage under the sink. I asked for a room change the next day, and was given a room that had been flooded. There were socks hanging in the bathroom. So for the 3rd time, we moved to another room.2015-04-03"

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.
