roadside hotel for motorists
A small, low-cost hotel beside a road, where you can park your car close to your room.
사용 패턴：
to stay at a motel
자주 하는 실수：
Learners sometimes use 'motel' and 'hotel' as if they are exactly the same. A motel is usually beside a road or highway and often lets you park directly outside your room, while a hotel is often in a city or town and may have indoor corridors and no parking right at the door. Learners may also say 'in the motel' when talking about staying there; 'stay at a motel' is the most natural phrase.
