Hotel vs. Inn
Hotel is a building where people can pay for lodge, have meal and other services. Hotels have rooms with beds and some useful furniture like chair, TV, telephone, small table, and some modern facilities like air conditions, computer and climate controller. Some rooms are attached with bathroom where visitors can bathe and get refreshed.

Food is offered by some hotels, but it has to be paid. There is a different section for food in hotels, which provides many different types of cuisines like Italian, Chinese, Lebanese, Thai, Continental and more.
The cost and expenses of hotel usually depends on the type of services. It is rated depending upon the range of service and the luxury of the hotel. Rating system is indicated by stars, hotel is affiliated by stars on these rating parameters. Hotel can be affiliated 3 stars, 5 stars or 7 stars. But AAA (American Automobile Association) uses diamonds instead of stars to affiliate hotels.
An inn is generally a building located along a highway or countryside where people can seek lodging and food. Inns were the first commercial buildings for lodging and boarding. Inns were established at time of Romans, to help travelers in lodging, food and drinks including alcohol. Not only do they used to provide service for the travelers, but horses were provided with stable and fodder.

This is terribly written. The grammar is horrendous. Learn English or hire an editor!
Oh, shut the hell up.
English-speakers are honestly the worst; all you white Americans are all on high-horses and I can’t wait till you crumble down – rather than shaming someone because their English and grammar isn’t grade A “like your magnificent own,” be grateful that they brought you this information . . . even if you’re going to be a shithead and whine about them “not knowing English” even though they obviously do.
Grow up, please, my dear. Stop acting like you’re so high-and-mighty because you’ve had the privilege of English being your first language.
I wouldn’t say that it’s horrible, because it does effectively clarify the difference between a hotel and an inn. However, it could use some proofreading, yes. It’s obvious that English is not the first language of the author.
I am totally frustrated here besides the locations, the two are the same?
First, wow AJ, can you say racism? Not everyone who notices how unprofessional this is can be viewed as white Americans.
As well, not everyone who noticed how unprofessional this reads is a native English speaker.
I’m not any of these.
Chill.
No kidding AJ. Obsess much. Your angst is juvenile your anger is more than is required for this post. May you have the problem. Just a humble. Guess.
The horrendous grammar is not important to me, I search difference between a hotel and an inn so that text help me a lot .
It is the correct information. As my personal experience last year, I was badly stuck on the highway, and I got the lodge or Inn. They gave me limited facilities, and there were only six rooms. But the lodge is helpful during that time where you can not get any hotel. You can safely stay at least.
