The staff at this Motel 6 were very friendly and super helpful in the event that my luggage was lost by the airlines. They received it and held it and kept it safe for me. They’re friendly, kind, and efficient. I can’t wait to go back and stay with them in New Orleans again.

Much better than my stay at the Houston motel 6. Easy check in. Hotel had a musky smell & the bathtub nozzle was operable but broken. Motel 6 really isn’t all that much cheaper than some of the other budget hotels but the quality sure is. I stay because of my dog & there is never a hassle with her.
