"The 1st room reeked of cigarettes, so we changed rooms. The 2nd room was sufficient, but the wallpaper was peeling off, and the curtains had holes in them that let in light. The towels were small and thin. Lower your expectations and use this hotel purely for utilitarian purposes.2016-09-06"
"The hotel room was clean but needed some improvements. The front desk clerk was nice and helpful. We had a pleasant stay.2016-06-13"
"The bedsheets weren't clean, and the hotel room needed vacuuming. The bathroom had bugs and mold, and the towel was dirty. We were moved to another room, but it also had hair in the bedding. The rooms didn't have adequate ventilation, and they were smelly. No lights in the pool. The front desk clerk was nice, but the staff wasn't knowledgeable about the area.2015-09-15"
"Our hotel room was far from the lobby, and it wasn't clean. The bedding was in a heap on the bed, and there were used towels on the bathroom floor. When we went to the front desk about the problem, the clerk didn't even apologize. We were given another room. There was mildew on the shower curtain and tile grout. We were told that the continental breakfast ended at 11:30 AM, but when we got there at 11, the eating area was empty and there was a sign saying breakfast ended at 10. Don't stay here.2015-09-10"

"The motel was surprisingly comfortable, and not too bad of a drive to the Festival at the Gorge venue. The employees were friendly and accommodating, and there was a continental breakfast. No elevator.2021-10-04"

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.
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.
