Great stay
The staff was great. Very friendly. Nice area. Probably one of the best motel 6 s I've stayed at lately. The only issue I had was the heat didn't work too well but otherwise I'd definitely stay here again

4/10 Fair

Needs more updating.
The room was clean, but shabby. The white sinktop had been painted black and the black finish was scratched and washed away. The laminate finish on the inexpensive desk and bed table had peeled off and scotch tape was used to try to hold it in place. The room door had apparently been damaged previously and didn't close fully.

DO NOT STAY HERE!
i paid for this room for my son, wife, and 3 year old daughter, who are currently homeless. i live about 700 miles away. they had stayed there multiple times. the hotel would not let them check in, claiming that they destroyed the room on their last stay, and had smoked in the room. THEY DO NOT SMOKE.. they were in the room less than 10 hours to shower and sleep. there was no damage to the room. Motel 6 discriminated against them because they are currently homeless. I could not get a refund as it was prepaid.
