"The hotel was laid out like an apartment complex, with terrible signage and poor outdoor lighting. The building my room was in wasn't marked, and I had trouble finding my room; it was #145 but was on the 3rd floor. The entire area was confusing.2016-08-18"

"The hotel was quiet, clean, and comfortable. Breakfast was impressive. The only negative was that only paper cups were provided in the room.2017-05-07"
"Hotel was conveniently located. Room needed better soundproofing. Bedsheets were soft and nice, but the pillows were too puffy for comfort. Good continental breakfast. I'd happily stay again.2015-01-15"
"We love this hotel. The staff is wonderful.2017-12-23"
"We were disappointed that there were no towel racks in the bathroom. Parking at the hotel wasn't free, and we had to pay a damage deposit.2017-12-19"
"Close to the mall and lots of restaurants. Nice hotel. Our room was on the 8th floor, and we had a perfect view of all the trains going by; we could hear them, but they weren't too loud and didn't disrupt our sleep. Staff was pleasant and helpful. Breakfast was crowded, and there wasn't enough seating; the lines were long, but the food was good.2015-03-09"
"The hotel room wasn't that clean, and the hallway on the 1st floor smelled bad.2021-03-09"
"The afternoon hotel clerk was extremely rude.2016-05-06"
"Everything about the hotel was fine except someone was able to use a key to open my room door at 5:45 AM. I had the security latch on, which prevented their entry.2015-06-15"
"A nice, clean hotel, but the fridge in our room didn't work at all.2021-04-21"
"The room was nice, clean, and comfortable, but the fridge was awkwardly located. Clean, attractive lobby. The hotel clerk was courteous, professional, friendly, and offered suggestions about things to do in the area. We had breakfast at the on-site restaurant, and the service was outstanding. We were happy with our stay.2018-12-12"
"Our room was on the 4th floor in the back of the hotel; there were train tracks nearby, and I heard some loud train whistles during the night. The rest of my family slept through it. Other than that, this was a nice place to stay.2016-08-16"

"I expected more for the price, and wasn't happy about paying for parking. My non-smoking room smelled like smoke, and there was no door between the bedroom and living area. The hotel clerk was friendly, but I didn't see anything special.2016-10-22"
"The hotel was quiet, but the interior seemed dated and more like a dormitory. All the snacks around the check-in area make it feel like a convenience kiosk. The smoke detector in our room had a strobe light and was right over the bed. Breakfast was decent.2023-10-19"

"A nice, clean hotel. The employees were friendly and helpful, and we were able to leave our car parked there in a secure garage for the duration of our vacation. Just a short hop to the airport. The restaurant in the lobby was small and limited; drive to the strip where there are many dining options. We'd stay here again.2019-07-28"
"The hotel was convenient to the airport and had a shuttle service. The room was older, but it was clean, comfortable, and fairly quiet. The employees were friendly and polite. The restaurant food was OK. A little pricey for the quality, but I'd stay here again.2019-06-29"
I’ve been using HotelGuides for over 8 years. The agents are very helpful, and they try to accommodate every request. I like that when they email a booking confirmation to you, they include the hotel's address as well as its interstate exit number.
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.
