"The other guests at this motel made me uncomfortable. Nothing worked. The door handles were broken, and there were no towels. The beds were full-sized, not queen-sized. Don't stay here.2019-08-21"
"The entire motel was dingy and felt creepy. Our room was falling apart, though it was clean. The wallpaper was peeling and the carpet was stained. All the furniture was scratched and banged up, and the alarm clock was from the '80s and didn't work. There were holes in the bedsheets. The mini-fridge was cemented into the corner of the room. We could readily enter the adjoining room. When we turned on one of the lamps, it began to smoke from dust build-up. The large whirlpool bathtub was old and stained, and all the plumbing fixtures had rust. Even the continental breakfast was bad. This place had no saving grace.2015-03-05"
"Motel was affordable, nice, and clean.2015-02-17"
"The room wasn't ready at check-in time. No housekeeping service at all, and no bolt on the room door. We had to take our dirty towels to the front desk to exchange them for clean ones. It took 2 trips to the front desk to get working keys. Don't stay at this hotel.2019-01-16"
"OK rates.The hotel was nice and clean, but the room was small and didn't have dishes. I'd stay again.2017-07-14"

"The hotel room was clean but a bit dated. Great service. Parking was a bit of a challenge due to neighboring construction.2020-03-06"
"Comfortable room with a good bed. The light switch system was a bit of a challenge; the master switch wasn't obvious. No noise or problems to worry about. Good breakfast bar, though it needed more healthy selections. We enjoyed our time at this hotel.2016-11-28"
"The hotel was well-maintained and looked almost new. All the employees were friendly and helpful, and we were able to check in early. Definitely stay here.2016-08-12"
"The 1st room had no heat at all, and the 2nd room door opened without using a key card. The floors were unsteady. Not a good motel stay.2021-04-14"
"The 1st room was a smoking room, so I had to request a change. The 2nd room didn't have a deadbolt lock, and I heard people making noise outside at 2 AM. The motel was sketchy; avoid it.2018-03-30"
"The motel was due for a major renovation; the carpeting, furniture, and paint were all more than worn out. The shower water fluctuated between hot and cold. The staff did the best they could considering the age and condition of the property. I suggest finding another place to stay.2017-06-20"
"My hotel room was dirty, and the carpet was stained. There were no dishes in the kitchen, and when we asked for cups, we got cheap plastic ones. The bathroom smelled bad, and there was dirt around the edges. The lobby smelled like marijuana.2015-04-18"
"The surrounding area was unsafe, but the room and hotel staff were good. Don't bring a pet you'll need to walk at night.2021-05-05"
"The hotel exterior wasn't well-lit, so it was hard to find at night.2021-03-20"
"An absolutely wonderful experience. Great location and rates. The hotel clerks were friendly and helpful; one of them helped us load Uber on our phones so we could get to our reunion on time. Don't hesitate to stay here.2019-08-12"
"This hotel is always great, and the rooms are always clean. It's close to the interstate, and the staff is nice.2019-10-07"
"I was impressed with the price and how nice and clean this hotel was. Unfortunately, the teen boys in the room above mine were so noisy that I called the front desk every 30 minutes to complain. On the 2nd night, I even went up and asked them to quiet down myself. On the 3rd night, they were finally moved to another room at 1 AM. Breakfast food that ran out wasn't replenished.2015-09-09"
"The hotel was easy to access and pretty centrally located. Nice, clean place, especially the bathroom. The bed was comfortable, and the linens were in good condition. The employees were helpful.2023-12-01"

"We were happy with our hotel stay. The room was clean and we all felt comfortable there. All the employees were nice, and the parking garage kept us out of the elements. Definitely stay here.2017-10-24"
"The hotel was clean, comfortable, and quiet at night. The bathroom off the lobby, the meeting room, and the happy hour room were all too small, though. It's a satisfactory place, but not an exciting one. I wouldn't recommend it for group functions.2018-10-29"
"A positive experience. Great hotel room and good breakfast. Close to a railroad, so there was some train noise.2017-07-26"
"I heard loud people from the hotel bar all night. The so-called game room was just a ping pong table and chess table in the dining room. Breakfast didn't cater to diabetics in any way.2016-08-16"

"Conveniently located. The hotel was kid-friendly, and the employees were friendly and accommodating. We loved staying here. Just book it; you won't regret it.2016-08-17"
"Right downtown and near I-5. The hotel had nice curb appeal and was new and clean. Great furnishings and finishes. Nice staff.2015-07-13"
"The accommodations were clean and orderly, and the beds were comfortable. The hotel staff was pleasant. We were disappointed that the pool was closed, but we were able to swim at a hotel a block away. A buffet breakfast was available.2022-03-09"
"The hotel was well-kept, and the employees were pleasant. I enjoyed the indoor whirlpool and pool area. Nice, well-stocked breakfast bar.2018-11-20"
"The motel needed many repairs, and the side of the building by the casino was noisy. The employees were nice and helpful.2018-05-22"
"The motel was run-down and dirty. The only saving grace was that the bed was comfortable. There was a table in the room, but no chairs. The AC was noisy. The fridge was broken, the microwave smelled like something was burning, and the windows were filthy. The toilet didn't flush properly and the bathtub paint was peeling. The front desk clerk wasn't at all helpful. We were disappointed that the pool and whirlpool were out of service, and were even more disappointed when we asked for patio chairs and were given two filthy, broken chairs and told to return them promptly. Won't return and don't recommend.2015-08-12"
"Located in the flight path of a regional airport, but the noise wasn't bad. The bed was lumpy, and the bathroom was uncomfortably small. The clientele made me uncomfortable. The staff was helpful, but due to a shift change, the clerks didn't call a taxi as I'd requested. Find a better motel.2015-07-08"
"The room was clean and comfortable. The lobby was small and uninviting. I got lost and needed directions to the hotel, but no one answered the phone. When I arrived and mentioned it, the clerk said they'd been busy, then took a call while waiting on me.2018-01-23"
"Not a good value, and not a good experience. Don't stay at this hotel.2015-10-03"

"The hotel was noisy, and there were no mask mandates in place. No parking. Stay somewhere else.2021-09-06"
"The room was clean and comfortable, but the carpet was filthy. Nice front desk clerk. We were told that pancakes were available in the evening, but the night we wanted some, there weren't any. No eggs at breakfast. Good hotel stay overall.2015-08-09"
"Nice hotel, and the staff was awesome. We did have a situation with an intoxicated group of men who were disruptive and offensive in the pool area.2015-05-12"
HotelGuides made it easy to choose a hotel based on how far we wanted to get that day. Also liked being able to see the interstate interchange on the map to determine how far off the highway each hotel was.
On place pages like this, we order hotels from lowest cost to highest – except we list low-rated hotels at the bottom of the page.
Most of our competitors order these same hotels in other ways that make them more money.
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.
