The rooms are very clean. The staff is very courteous and actual will help you and your family out with accommodation without hesitation. I’ve seen multiple guests with animals that seem very happy with the environment at the Motel. Definitely pet friendly. The showers have great water pressure aswell. Enjoy your stay at the Motel 6!

I stayed on the weekend Friday and Saturday night. I asked him to clean my room on Saturday and they said they don’t usually clean on the weekends because they’re so busy. I also didn’t have a blanket requested one and it never came. Only sheets in the bathtub was filthy.
