The hotels.com and Motel6 was crazily inflexible. I'd accidentally booked a smoking room (apparently that is still a thing), and despite there being 6 empty non-smoking rooms they could not just move me into another room without having me pay for both rooms. The guy was like: "computer says no".

Very good!

I have stayed here a number of times and every time it's a little improved. The rooms are very nice and have new bedding and a new lock system since I was there last. For the money in the location you can't beat it.
