"The hotel charged a resort fee for 2 bottles of water and use of sand toys. The WiFi didn't work. The room was clean but old. Paint was chipping off the walls, and the AC cycled loudly on and off. The bathtub leaked about 5 gallons of water every 15 minutes. Don't stay here.2018-11-16"

"I was disappointed with my hotel stay in Building 1. I could hear everyone in the hallways, other rooms, and a bus outside. There was dust on the dresser. Took a long time for water to heat up. The staff was pleasant and helpful.2015-04-12"

"The hotel was convenient and clean, and the staff was terrific during Hurricane Irma. The power was sporadic from room to room, so it was challenging for all; some rooms had AC but no lights, other rooms had no AC but had lights and TV power. The employees even ran an extension cord from a working outlet to make as much coffee as they could. I'd definitely stay here again.2017-09-14"

"Excellent beach access right behind the hotel. We were upgraded to a penthouse with an unbelievable view. The staff was efficient and helpful. Don't recommend Bongos, the restaurant and tiki bar next door; the staff was rude and unprofessional. Fortunately, there are plenty of alternatives nearby.2016-01-09"

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.
