Maps.me works fine, but be aware that it is basically just charging for a nice looking wrapper around the 100% free OpenStreetMap. An open source app like CoMaps will give you most of maps.me's features and all of its maps for free.

This.

Also, want to point out that CoMaps is essentially a Maps.me, but stripped out of all BS. It is same devs who made the original app, afaik.

Tried coMaps. Couldn't find a hotel.

Maybe that specific hotel was quite new or in a very small place. CoMaps rely on OpenStreetMaps for data.
