"My room had a view of the parking lot. A lamp in my room didn't work, and the bathroom wasn't clean. I was moved to another room; 2 lights didn't work, but they were quickly fixed. Didn't get the correct room service order, though I did get an apology. Not my best hotel stay.2017-03-27"

"The hotel was dirty, and there were dead roaches all over the bathroom floors. The mattress had brown stains around the edges of the stitching, and the carpet in both rooms and the hallway was stained. The room chairs had food crumbs around the edges of the cushions. One of the beds sagged. Our rooms faced the harbor; the sliding glass door didn't lock in one. We requested a refund after 30 minutes and went to another hotel. Don't stay here.2016-12-18"

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.
