This is a poorly refreshed Motel 6. I was surprised with a cash demand for deposit. The rooms I purchased were not the rooms they gave me. The bed was good. Except for the bed bugs.

Excellent value for that prices we were quite impressed. Only thing that still needs updating in the bathtub. The paint was chipping and flaking off heavily in the tub. The rest of the room was fantastic and totally comfortable.

I had to put up a $60 CASH deposit before checking in. They had a ATM machine which charged me $3.50 to get the $60. Many people travel with little cash as we rely on our plastic which is lower risk. This was appalling!!

The place is okay for staying, especially for families, but the bathrooms did not feel very professional or well-maintained. The breakfast could also be much better. I waited a long time for my refundable security deposit, and I still have not received it, which was disappointing. Parking is good, but the outdoor stairway areas were not very clean. Overall, the stay was okay, but there are definitely areas that need improvement.
