"Not worth the price. You pay for being downtown, but there was absolutely no view. The bedsheets didn't look fresh, and the coffee pot was dirty and had a used pod in it. There were barely any TV channels, and there was no working WiFi. The smell of marijuana outside the front door was so strong it just about knocked me over. The pool was small.2023-07-26"

"The motel was a little better than average, but the WiFi was terrible.2018-07-09"
"The motel room was hot when I arrived, and it took a few hours to cool off after I turned off the AC. There was a slight smell of mildew. The curtains didn't fully close, so light came in the window. No alarm clock. There seemed to be a lot of paperwork at checkout, and I didn't like that my ID was copied. Consider other options.2018-06-28"
"Poor value. The motel room was tiny and dirty. The amenities were slim to none, and the appliances didn't work. The employees were rude and unaccommodating. I don't recommend staying here.2016-03-29"

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.

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.
