It seems as if some people have the hard time distinguishing between a hotel and motel. They are NOT the same! It's one of my pet peeves and I cannot stand people referring to hotels as motels. No I did not stay at a motel on my wedding night. jeez.
Lesson 1: The qualities of a hotel:
- Interior hallways!!! (this is key)
- Elevators
- A lobby
- Restaurant or free breakfast area
Lesson 2: The qualities of a motel:
- Exterior hallways
- outside staircases to get to upper floors
- parking outside your room
- The ability to rent the rooms by the hour.
This is a hotel: notice the lack of exterior hallways and stairwells. It has more than 2 floors and probably has carpet, a lobby, fitness center, restaurant and internet. It doesn't advertise that it has cable/HBO.
These are Motels. Notice the parking right outside the door, 2 floors, lack of elevators, outside Coke machine.
Okay QUIZ: What are these?
??
hmmm....
If you are still deluded into thinking these are motels please refer back to lesson 1.
