"The room was exceptional, and the hotel staff was amazing. Stay more than one night.2018-10-22"
"Although the hotel employees were friendly and helpful, the location wasn't convenient to nice restaurants or entertainment. The room smelled like mold, and there was mold on the shower curtain.

"This hotel wasn't the worst, but it was far from the best.2018-10-16"
"Excellent location, but I didn't think the quality of the room was worth the price. The double beds were quite narrow, and the pillows were flat as a board. The hotel was nice, but one doesn't sleep in the lobby. Pleasant staff.2015-09-02"

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.

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.
