Budget Motels 1998-1999 State by State Guide: Your National Guide to the Best Low-Cost Lodgings (Serial)

Rating:
Summary: A timesaver, but the information is available for free.
Review: Basically, this book combines the location guides from Motel-6, Econolodge, Day's Inn, and several national lower-price chains, and organizes them by state, then city. There are no maps to help you find motels along your route, and few, if any independent inns listed.

Pretty much all of the material in this book can be gotten for free by picking-up the location guides the motels offer.

Rating:
Summary: May not be too useful if you have good access to internet.
Review: Most of the motels listed can be easily found by looking at the web sites for Motel6, Super8, and Day's Inn. This book will save you time if you have slow internet access, or no access. Otherwise, not too useful.
