It met my basic requirements: safe, quiet and working shower and air conditioner. Front lobby staff were professional, friendly, and prepared for my arrival, so it only took 1-2 minutes to get my room key and go!

Hands down, the nicest Motel 6 we've ever stayed in. It looks exactly like it does on the website (more like a hotel instead of of a motel). The staff was amazing as well as very accommodating and check in and out was a breeze. The room was a little small, but was more than enough for us considering we only stayed for one night. We would definitely stay here again if we're in the area again!
