Based on my experiences as a hotel employee, I would implore anyone needing a hotel room to always make an advance reservation. This is especially true during busy holiday weekends, weekends during the summer, etc. In fact, it is always a good idea to make hotel reservations. Since you can never be sure what is going on in a particular area (conventions, special events, etc) at a particular time, it is always wise to make an advance reservation. Last night, on a Wednesday, a family told me they had travelled for four hours looking for a hotel room. Fortunately, we had one available for them. In addition, it is a good idea to book a room in advanace if you have special needs or requests, e.g,.a non-smoking room, two adjoining rooms, a room within a certain price range, etc. AAA also recommends always making an advance reservation for hotel rooms. I hope this information was helpful to someone.
