The room was clean overall. Most of the time it was quiet, except after 7 AM. The only other noise was the elevator operation, which is about as noisy as my house's furnace when it operates. One of the towels was not quite so clean. Checking in was easy, took maybe a couple of minutes. The snack area took a bit of searching but I found it near the elevator. The HVAC ran fine. Parking was plentiful overall, but for some reason this weekend, parking close to the entrance was full. The location is convenient to shopping, food and gas.

Avoid. I’m done with Motel 6 in general. The room was tiny. A guy kept yelling at his woman because she wouldn’t have s$x with him. Called and they pecked on his door and told him to be a little quieter guests were complaining. He didn’t even come to the door, the employee left. My wife felt unsafe. Homeless wondering the parking lot. Decent area across the road but make a better selection than this place!!

Booked a non-smoking room. However, other guest(s) smoked in their room(s) and the smoke came through my bathroom exhaust fan into my room. Solved this problem my running the exhaust fan the whole time and closing the bathroom door. Stayed 3 nights. Figured this out the 2nd day. Can’t blame the staff if guests disrespect the property. Otherwise, had a great stay and will stay here again.
