"The entire place needed renovation and AC. The 2nd floor smelled like cigarette smoke, and there were burn holes in the bedsheets. Most of the hotel clerks were nice, but some employees didn't seem experienced. The hand sanitizer for guests was just one towelette. Don't stay at this hotel.2020-08-24"

"The hotel was quiet, and we appreciated the covered pedestrian bridges to McCormick Center. Our room was comfortable, and we enjoyed the view. It was a comfortable stay for the dogs as well. Nice selection at breakfast, and the seating was ample and comfortable. No on-site parking, so plan to park in the pay lot behind the property. We'll definitely stay here again.2022-04-09"

"Almost everything in our hotel room was stained, including the mattress and carpet. One light over the beds was burned out. The bedspread had a cigarette burn hole, and the sink had several stains. There was mold on the bathroom ceiling, and the exhaust fan didn't work. The toilet only flushed half the time. We left after one night and don't recommend staying here.2019-07-31"

"A poor experience. Not a great location and not worth the price. Old hotel in need of renovation. There was noisy construction going on at daybreak right outside my window. Lousy breakfast. Avoid this place like the plague.2016-07-18"
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.
