"Nice hotel, but there were several negatives. No housekeeping because of Covid. No microwave or coffee maker. Our courtyard-facing room had a view of the dumpsters at the apartments next door. Breakfast was a joke; we were given vouchers for coffee, fruit, and a danish at the coffee shop next door, but some items were unavailable both mornings. I ended up spending $15 on breakfast each day. The employees were friendly and accommodating. For the price, I'd stay elsewhere.2021-01-22"

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.
