Need help in selecting a good motel?

While booking motels is an inexpensive and favourable option if you’re on a budget, it can be a little challenging to find one where you can get maximum bang for your buck. We’ve listed some pointers to help you choose a cheap motel with decent services.

Look for places with enough lighting so you can tell at a glance if the building is well maintained. An untidy exterior usually means bad rooms.

Check out vehicles in a prospective motel parking lot. Out-of-state license plates mixed with local state plates means a variety of travelers, which can be a sign that the motel is popular.

Observe the motel office. If the office looks and smells clean, the rooms are usually in good condition.

Request the motel reception to see a room and inspect the linens, bathroom and carpets. A motel with dirty bedsheets and pillow cases, rugs or bathroom should be ruled out.

These tips will help you find a motel near you instantly. Search our extensive listings to compare motels and pick the right one for you.
