Yes, many motels are cheaper than hotels. They are not as nice either so I would consider staying in a hotel instead.
Motels, which are a portmanteau of "motor" and "hotel", differ from hotels in terms of location (motels are along highways, while hotels tend to be in the middle of cities and towns); orientation (the doors face the outside world, while hotel doors face a hallway); and the availability of parking lots (older hotels don't have them).
Hotels are higher quality than motels. Motels are usually a one or two star type of accommodation, while hotels are a 3 to five star room. Hotels also have more amenities like internet, TV, swimming pools, etc. Hotels average about 125 dollars per night and can be expensive upwards of several thousand dollars a night. Motels are all usually under 100 dollars.
There are different types of lodging including hotel and motels. A hotel is typically a large building with several floors. A motel is usually one or two floors. The prices usually are different between the two. Hotels are often more expensive than a motel. Hotels often have more amenities than motels. Motels are often used for longer staying guests.

The main difference between the two is the quality level. Hotels are generally higher quality for the price than motels. The other major difference is that motels are generally designed to be near major thoroughfares so as to bring in those travelling by road. Hotels on the other hand are higher priced and generally cater more to those who travel into a city by air, or by car if it is their final destination. Motels also tend to have the look and feel more like a small bedroom in your house, though they aren't necessarily homey like your house would be. Also, Hotels tend to have multiple stories while motels are usually one or two stories at the most. These are most of the major differences between the two. Motels are commonly in a U shape and feature single rooms that face a parking lot of courtyard. Hotels, on the other hand, normally have enclosed rooms and pools.
