Would stay here again

Very happy with our stay for 5 days. Room was very clean and bed was comfy.

Very clean, easy check in and check out.
Linsay, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very very positive.

Pleasantly surprised. Clean, fresh, new. Only one complaint- the pillows were hard and flat. Bring your own. Owner/manager very nice, building well maintained. Good 4 day visit. Would definitely recommend.

10/10 Exceptional

Less than 5 minutes from CPH

Exactly what I paid for, a nice bed to sleep on and a hot shower at the end of the day. I came to help my daughter move out of her dorm and it was a perfect stay. Thanks M6!

10/10 Exceptional

Clean room. Friendly staff.
Jennifer, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

We didn’t even end up staying at the property because it was so dirty and gross. Spent the extra money to stay at a different hotel for peace of mind. A lot of long term rentals at this property. There was dirt, chip crumbs, and dog kibble on our floor. The room had a terrible smell to it. Staff was willing to sweep the room but overall it just didn’t feel safe and that wouldn’t have helped the smell.

“Nicely remodeled rooms and a great value—definitely one of the best deals in town! The virtual check-in process was fast and convenient, with room keys dispensed automatically. However, it was a bit confusing since there was also someone behind the front desk, yet no human interaction took place
Cathy, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Check in was easy. Could use a coffe pot in the room. Comforter has a cigarette burn on it and this is a non smoking room. Everything else was pretty good.
Daniel, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Mystery stain on kitchen sink. Tiny shower. TV remote didn't work. 3rd party kiosk was annoying. Couldn't speak English clearly. Never again

4/10 Fair

Hike it up, mister

Flew in for our son’s graduation to realize all the prices increased. 550. for 2 days for a very SMALL room. Couldn’t fit through to get to the bathroom. Sticky stuff on the hangers, non foam mattresses.
Donovan, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Odd stay

Strange kiosk with overseas individual on a large screen assisted with check in as an actual person was behind the counter doing nothing. One crinkly miniscule towel for two people was supplied. No in room coffee. Exhaust from large truck poured into the room as people park backwards.Such a strange experience but for $60 what do you expect?

Nice clean hotel, surroundings not so nice
Michael, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

It was okay for a short stay:)
Lavern, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Not great

We hated this hotel. The check in was odd. It had a kiosk with a zoom call to India. But beyond that it made me feel unsafe. When we tried to get into our room, which was tricky, there were some other guests screaming and barefoot. I realized that there was no one who we could complain to! It is just me and my son and we felt unsafe (which I realize is different from being unsafe). The hotel is on the freeway and it was noisy. Both the bed and towels had hairs on them. They shower was an overhead rain shower but on the outer edge of the curtain so it didn't spray well and got water all over the bathroom. While this wasntthe worst stay I have had, it wasn’t great and we got out as soon as we could.
Amanda, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

great place for a short night stay. very clean room. I will be coming back again next time I am in town.
Lei, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Typical Motel 6 but with a very clean and large room that didn’t show a lot of age or wear/tear (maybe newer or recently remodeled?). The mattress was too firm for my preference but that seems to be typical of most Motel 6’s I’ve stayed at. Quiet area even though it’s off the highway amid other budget hotels and food stops. For the price it’s a very good option when you just need a clean but basic room in a safe, convenient, quiet area to stop for the night.
