What the listings rarely say is how the walkway feels at 22h, whether the ice machine is five doors from your bed, and whether the clerk will hold the room if your drive from the canyon runs long. That is what I write down.

The question card you take with you
Each entry in the ledger ends with the same short card. Copy it, call the desk, compare the answers.
Which room number, and what is behind its wall?
Ask for the specific room. A blank answer is a signal.
If my drive from the canyon runs long, is the room held?
Expect a concrete clock time, not "we will see".
What is the cancellation deadline, in the hotel time zone?
Record it. The time zone matters more than the hour.
