Basic motel that was clean and decently priced. Motel was booked solid and there was a lot of outside noise from a troop of band kids staying and barking dogs of other guests. Can’t do much to control those things. Hazards of budget travel.

Discriminating management at motel 6

My stay was terrible because I arrived here at midnight believing I have a room reserved and the staff told me sorry we cannot bring to you because your name on do not rent list I said why is that they told me because I had a shouting match with somebody in the management of the hotel last time I was here and that is absolutely not true I have never had any bad experience or any bad contact with any of the staff in this motel they told me I can come tomorrow and speak with the management but tonight I have no place to stay it's midnight and this is really truly wrong and very disappointing.
