Looking for a motel?

Both travellers on the road and on a budget rely on motels for convenient stops with reasonable rates. Direct access to parking makes a motel an easy place to catch some sleep after a day of driving. The relatively smaller size of this accommodation type can also help to make check-in quick and easy.

    I liked the fast check-in. The room was nice and clean. You're able to park right outside your motel room. The room had 2 queen beds, a fridge, a microwave, plenty of towels, soap, shampoo, and tolietries. The bed linen and towels were very clean. Lastly, you're given a remote when you check in to watch TV. There's cable and HBO to watch.

    The room was clean and roomy. The bed was so comfortable that I overslept. I come to this particular Motel 6 regularly and bring my kids a lot too. They enjoy being here also and make themselves at home everytime. I enjoy having the microwave and refrigerator also. It makes it more convenient when you bring food and drinks with you. Every stay is great when I come stay here.

    I like the location and the staff are really nice one day then one day they’ll be rude. But over all this is my favorite Motel 6 to stay at when I travel here from the east coast.

    We booked Friday and Saturday night thru the website. Before arrival we were called and the motel canceled our reservation. I will never book thru the website again and I will never rent from the motel either. Total waste of time and energy. Rick
