"The lights over one of the beds didn't work, and one of the bulbs in the desk lamp was burned out. The lamp and area behind the beds were full of dust.

No housekeeping, so I had to go to the front desk for towels, garbage bags, and other things.2022-09-25"

"I had an extremely positive experience. The room was clean and well-stocked with cups and coffee, but I never got the extra towels I requested. The staff was friendly. A continental breakfast was provided, and there was a nearby gas station that sold snacks. This hotel is a well-kept secret and worth the price.2018-09-11"

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.
