The service was okay, but service bell upfront was not effective. I had to call the front desk from my cellphone to get help. I have stayed at plemty of Motel 6 before, nothing uncommon. The people were nice who worked there. Beds were hard as a rock My concern mainly was the amount of pubic hair on all the towels in our room.
