"The hotel room was immaculate and nicely appointed. The complimentary breakfast food wasn't replenished promptly. Having a Ruby Tuesday right next door was great.2023-05-16"
"The hotel staff was wonderful; the hotel clerks were life-savers when my husband with chemo brain got lost and ended up in another room. Stay here.2021-09-14"
"The heater in our hotel room rattled and was so loud that we had a hard time getting to sleep, and it cycled on and off all night. The pool was closed because of a broken heater, which was disappointing. Breakfast was pretty bad. When I spoke with the front desk clerk, she implied that our poor stay was our fault for not requesting another room. I don't recommend staying here.2021-12-01"
"Reasonably close to the Horse Center and restaurants. Not a luxury resort, but this is a nice, functional hotel. Everything was in good condition. Firm bed, good TV, fridge, and microwave, and plenty of hot water. Good breakfast, but it didn't start early enough on weekends. 2015-11-03"
"We loved staying at this hotel and took advantage of the proximity to town. Our room was quiet, and breakfast was delightful. By all means, stay in one of the old rooms.2022-05-16"

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.
