"The hotel room was small but clean. Good exercise room. The restaurant food was less than mediocre, and the drinks were overpriced. Poor service, too; the service at the bar was far better.2019-05-16"

"Great hotel and staff. We arrived about 10 minutes after the wine happy hour ended, but were still given 2 nice glasses of wine to start off our visit. The room was clean. While we were out, our crated dog must have made noise, because we returned to find him with the front desk clerks. It was nice to see that they cared and he was happy with them. We'd definitely stay here again.2018-08-24"

"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. The windows didn't open for fresh air. The whirlpool wasn't that clean. Renting bicycles is a fun and affordable way to see many local attractions.2017-10-29"

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.

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.
