It was a clean bed and shower. There was a fridge but no microwave. Close to the highway so it's a little noisy. The heater worked well but the windows are leaky so it turns on a lot. It was okay for an economical stop.

The motel was ok overall. Front desk people were fine. Room was small, but that's to be expexted. My main complaint is the smell. Not sure what it was exactly, but the whole place smelled stale and musty. They do have smoking rooms, so that could have something to do with it. Probably won't stay here again.

Excellent property. Best Motel Six I’ve stayed at. Clean. Quiet. Good TV. Right near a Perkins for breakfast! Not far off the motorway, easy to navigate.
