Clean quiet place. No frills but we were just needing a place to sleep. I would say good if on a quick business stop over but not for a family trip.

The TV in my room stopped workìng and they wouldnt send anyone up to look at it. They gave me new batteries for the remote once, then told me they didn't have anymore batteries when that didn't fix it, so I bought some just to try and that also didn't fix it.

People on second floor above us walked like elephants. The refrigerator made a very weird whooshing sound, and made frequent loud banging noises all night that woke us up. The pillows were too soft -- no support at all. The hallway smelled sickly, flowery sweet -- maybe some weird carpet cleaner?? The staff was very nice and helpful.

It's Motel6,so we knew it would be as basic as you get. The room was clean but the room had a stale oder. The beds were ok but slipped on the wooden frame each time in/out of bed. If you're looking for a simple room with a sleepable bed and an adequate bathroom, you'll be fine. Just be fully aware that it is a low-end motel.

The hotel smelled like a mix of sweaty feet and lemon air freshener. The elevator had an overwhelming smell of sweat and weed. The beds were rock hard, the pillows had holes in them. The only positive piece of the stay was the employees. They were always kind and helpful.
