This is a no frills motel that offers great value for the money! I found it to be safe, quiet and convenient to dining, shopping and several nearby towns. Would not hesitate to stay here again! The owner and staff work hard to ensure a pleasant stay!

It was average.

Its a place to stay. Get what you pay for so to speak. Property is a little out dated. Rooms definitely need to be updated or a least painted and such.

Room was fairly clean but old and could use fresh paint, a good window cleaning and some drywall repair. The air conditioner was very loud and the fan in the bathroom didn't work. Front desk attendant was pleasant and it is pet friendly. I suppose for the price it was good enough for a place to sleep on a road trip.

Bed was very comfortable. Spacious room. My biggest complaint was the chech-in process. Resvervation made through Expedia. I even received a call from the property confirming I made the reservation. Upon arrival I was informed that my credit card was declined. I explained that the reservation was paid through Expedia. He said I needed to pay with a different card. I used the same card that I used with Expedia. Now I got billed twice. I was told to wait for the charges to post against my credit card. If both charges get posted I am to call the Motel 6 to get a refund-very frustrating.

Our bathroom had a huge opening out to the room. It was covered with a shower curtain, but could still see through a bit. Not ideal for traveling with my teenage son. Definitely didn’t shower!!

The rooms are clean but the motel sure really needs updated. The toilet seat was very loose. I didn’t understand why two mattress covers were on the bed and the top blanket was stained. The TVs are very small and need to upgraded also. Otherwise it’s just a bed.

Great staff and clean, safe facility. The only problem I have is that they are a strict no smoking facility but the hallways smell strongly of marijuana, and as I am not a smoker, it is a big turn off.
