The key difference between a 3- and 4-star hotel in Joes will be the standard of service and availability of creature comforts. Three-star hotels are generally more affordable and provide the amenities and services required to be comfortable, such as a gym, breakfast and WiFi. You can look forward to a little more at a 4-star hotel — think upscale interiors, luxury toiletries and extras like on-site day spas.
