We had to switch 2 rooms due to, first, out of order toilet flush and second, out of order refrigerator (as we had perishable food with us that needed refrigeration). Fortuantely, the staff was very good and understood our urgency and gave us a better room per our requirement.

Our visit was very good, staff great. The thing I was disappointed in was the door to the office was always closed and locked when we would want a coffee. Coffee in the morning is important. Room w as nice and clean.

No blanket on bed, no trash can , door and frame had been scratched down to raw wood by previous visitor’s dog, no smoke alarm on ceiling bracket, was given a key card to room that was already occupied ( door locked from inside even though lock flashed green when tapped). Staff was very pleasant and helpful. Will not be returning.

Clean rooms, safe environment, fairly quiet area - though the walls are not very sound proof. Better than I expected for Motel 6 and wonderful for the price. The managers are super lovely.
