Good last-minute stay with 2 dogs
This was a last-minute booking, and I was glad to find a place for my dogs and me to stay. Past reviews were accurate: it’s in a quiet, corporate-canyon area. As a solo female traveler I felt safe.

Nice Motel 6
The room was clean and comfortable. There was also a fridge with a small freezer in the room, which was an unexpected bonus for my road trip.

The rooms were refurbished on the inside which was nice, and the hotel was in a quiet area. However, there was a noisy dog in one room, people watching their tv loudly, and smokers outside, so would suggest other places if you are staying for more than a couple nights

The Room Does The Job
The location is really good. The room was updated and clean. The check in was fast and friendly.
The bad
The bed and pillows were not so good.
However, for the price and the necessity of quick place to sleep at an affordable price, this stay checked those boxes

Unexpected Value
This was the nicest Motel 6 I have ever stayed in. Everything was new and fresh and more stylish than expected.
There was a problem with the door sticking to the room

Clean quiet place. No frills but we were just needing a place to sleep. I would say good if on a quick business stop over but not for a family trip.

The cleanliness of the room was a little less than the last time I stayed here. I found a few hairs in my bath towels but otherwise it was great.

Very good option for the price. No breakfast and no frills, but the room had been remodeled and was clean. It was just what I needed for two nights.

Clean - the most important aspect of a hotel. It’s an older building and you can tell but it’s clean and didn’t have any bad smells. Which for the price point, is more than what you would expect from other properties at the same price point. Service was good, efficient check-in. Would stay again.
