"Great place to stay. The hotel was clean, and the front desk clerk was professional and understanding. We were able to check in early due to a funeral.2021-08-31"
"Nice hotel. I loved how quiet it was. Wish the pool had been open, though.2018-05-04"
"The locks on the room door didn't work. The bathtub didn't drain well. There were kids running upstairs all night. Not a 5-star hotel.2022-06-22"
"Right by the freeway for easy access, ad the location seemed safe. There were plenty of restaurants nearby. The hotel was clean and quiet, and the front desk clerk was friendly.2022-02-09"
"Everything was wonderful. The hotel was great, and the location made it easy to get around the area. The employees were pleasant and super nice. The only negative was that the bed was too firm. Definitely stay here.2021-04-28"
"Good experience. The hotel was clean and quiet, and the staff was friendly. I'll stay here again.2023-09-20"
"I was pleased with the condition of the hotel and the service. Good place to stay.2023-02-11"
"The hotel was under construction during my stay. The room was shabby, and the rates were too high. The bathroom had a sliding door that didn't provide any privacy. The "heated" outdoor pool wasn't heated, and there was no one to deliver room service. Our $85 dinner was awful, and the breakfast buffet cost $11.2019-11-04"
"The motel was cheap and it showed. We were eaten by bugs on our beds.2017-11-10"
"Peaceful location. Breakfast needed more variety. I had an enjoyable stay at this motel.2015-09-20"
"OK bed, and the sheets smelled clean. The AC worked well. The carpet was old and dirty. There were roaches and spiders in the bathtub, paint was peeling, and there was mildew on the tub and tiles. There was something brown on the new roll of toilet paper. When I told the motel clerks that I was afraid to eat breakfast because of the cleanliness issues, one laughed and walked away, and the other said "sorry". I've stayed here for 12 years, and it keeps going downhill. Don't recommend.2015-06-26"
"This hotel was awful. The room had roaches and the bed wasn't clean. The staff was rude.2017-02-28"
"The hotel seemed older, but the room had everything I needed.2016-11-20"
"The hotel consisted of 3 different buildings that weren't connected; I had to ask for a room change to a more convenient location since I couldn't find a luggage cart. The check-in clerk didn't make me feel welcome and offered no assistance. The worst part of my stay was fighting off gnats and mosquitoes at night.2016-06-12"
"The motel was OK for a short stay. The bed wasn't particularly comfortable. There were some people outside working on a truck, but they were quiet and there was no problem.2020-06-13"
"The room wasn't clean, and no drinking cups were provided. The hair dryer was a safety hazard. Some of the equipment in the exercise room was inoperable. The motel clerks were friendly, but I don't recommend staying here.2018-05-07"
"The room was damp, and the AC didn't work well. The bathroom door locked every time I closed it, and I had to call the hotel clerk to come unlock it. She couldn't unlock it, and neither could the housekeepers; finally she got it open using a screwdriver, but it made my stay stressful since I was traveling alone with a toddler and just wanted to sleep. I got $10 as reimbursement. Don't stay here.2016-08-25"

"The hotel was clean and attractive, and located in a safe area on top of a hill. It felt isolated. My only complaint was the lack of coffee service and the careless personnel; I asked for a wake-up call and never got one. The employees were invisible and unhelpful.2021-03-23"
"The hotel room was humid, and the AC didn't work. I called the front desk and the AC turned on at 3:09 AM. Someone tried to enter our room while we were sleeping because the staff mistakenly gave them keys to our room. The bedding made us all itch. The front desk clerks weren't nice or competent. Not a good place to stay.2019-07-13"

"Only one of the beds had a blanket. No local TV stations. The exterior of the bathtub and the fixtures were dirty, and there was hair on the counter by the coffee pot. The floor had an oily substance on it. Don't stay at this hotel.2017-02-13"
"The hotel ambiance was open and friendly. The lobby was clean, and coffee was available 24 hours a day. The bed and bedding were comfortable. There was an issue with the curtain in our room, but a clerk gave us clothespins to keep them shut. No housekeeping the next day. We appreciated being able to buy soda, juice, and snacks. You can't go wrong staying here.2022-09-06"

"Nice, comfortable room, and the hotel clerks were amazing. I put the Do Not Disturb sign on the door; when I left about 15 minutes later, the housekeeper was outside my room. I told her it was OK to clean my room, but I returned later and it hadn't been serviced.2019-12-18"

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.
