"I wasn't happy that I was given a handicap room, which I didn't request. The room was large and had a kitchenette. No carpeting. Everything was clean. The bathroom wasn't great. The hotel clerk was pleasant, and there was a large grassy area where I could walk my dog. The area wasn't the best, though, and there was a homeless person sleeping on the hotel grounds. Breakfast was just coffee and a muffin, but there were lots of restaurants within walking distance. If you're a woman traveling alone, you might not be comfortable with the area.2022-06-28"
"Terrible location. No information in the room about the TV, the area, or local restaurants. The hotel exterior was dirty, and the pool was closed but filthy. Breakfast was a muffin, granola bar, and an apple. The beverage was a bottle of water. I couldn't wait to leave.2021-08-07"

"Convenient to MGM and activities. I thought the hotel was over-rated. There was a stench when I entered the room, and the bathroom was small and didn't have much counter space. The bed was too firm. I had to ask for decorative pillows, which were missing from the living room. The furniture was outdated, the fridge was small, and the check-in clerk didn't provide information about using the expensive parking. Notes on the elevator wall informed us that construction was going on from 8 AM-5 PM on the room. The service was excellent. I had a good steak at the restaurant, and the waiter and bartender were pleasant.2019-02-22"

"We weren't happy about being given a handicap room, and no other rooms were available. The toilet didn't flush well, and it took speaking with a number of people before it was fixed. The shower looked dirty, but the manager said the bathtubs were being resurfaced but were clean. Avoid this hotel.2021-09-29"

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.
