The woman receptionist on the 3-11 shift is a gem. She welcomed us enthusiastically, chatted with us as she processed our reservation and then offered references to restaurants and coffee shops. She gave us easy to use directions to the downtown area and made us feel glad we were there.
Its just an old property. Motel 6 tries to take good care of but after time it shows it's old age. Price was great and location was great. Staff was spectacular. Not sure I would stay again because of the old mattresses.
Staff for check in and check out were amazing ! No problems with our hotel room either .

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort
The room was good as far as getting the job done for a one night stay with my kids in the area. The bed was SO COMFORTABLE! I want to know the mattress brand!
The room was dated and the shower was definitely not comfy- more like an RV shower.
It was hard to be put on the 2nd floor with small kids and a big stroller.
