How to Find Hidden Cameras in Your Airbnb

Oh, yes; there are certainly many chains like Travelodge and Motel 6 that fit the category of "motel" but are more modern and clean.

However, I can quite assure you that here in rural Upstate New York (and, indeed, even in some of the less-well-off sections of the cities), there are still a great many motels that date to the era I mentioned—very visibly so. (This is why I qualified my statement with "at least around here".)

I have actually stayed in Travelodges a couple of times, and while they were modern, I wouldn't really describe them as "comfortable" (the beds were like tandem canoes) or "clean", at least not universally so.

I'm thinking more things like Comfort Inns or the lower-end Marriott brands. I'd put Travelodge and Motel 6 pretty near the bottom of the national chains. I had the misfortune to have to stay in a Travelodge last year because of a last minute trip.

But, yes, there are also still quite a few non-chains or small chains that aren't... great.
