Overall, great for the cost/ location - exactly what youd expect a Motel 6 to be. My only gripes was over the blankets and pillows. Both were painfully thin. When I asked on two separate occations for a second blanket I was told "no, someone else might need one." What?

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
The room was neglected, dirty walls and mold in the bathroom walls. I remember staying here a few years ago and wasnt a 5 star but it was decent and clean. When i did my booking it said 2 queen beds and we got 2 fuil size beds. Floors were also really dirty. Wasnt comfortable laying on the bed because it felt dirty too. Not sure if they even change the sheets. The heater made so much noise it was scary.

For Motel 6, the rooms were clean. The girl in the office was not friendly. They were somewhat unorganized. You need to ask for blankets though. The gentleman who is cleaning the rooms was kind enough to carry our luggage down to our car for us as we are a little older. Nice guy!
