Well, after reading the reviews on this "little" Motel, I and family decided to give it a try. We NEVER stay at Motels. But we were in town for a lacrosse event where EVERYONE else in the neighboring cities were either sold out or triple the price of what we paid here at Motel 6, which was over $220 a night (Friday and Saturday). So, please keep in mind this is a motel. No extras. And I mean, no extras. Towels were limited but the maids working there were friendly and generous. We even tipped them for the extra towels. Walking into the room left a family of three with shock. Two small double beds, with barely room to get around each other. The bath room, although clean, was tiny as well. No place to put your luggage except on top of each other as there was no room. I believe our room was less than an 8X10, which is small for a "hotel room." As I said before, two double beds for three people left us pretty crowded. I will say this...they were clean and comfortable. Bring your own pillow, since they give you three small very flattened pillows per bed. Bring an extra blanket as you never know what the temp will be. We brought our own pillows and an extra blanket. Thank goodness we did since the AC would get cold, then hot, then cold. Never checked out the coffee area in a.m. Why bother? We wanted out of the tiny accommodation asap to escape to Starbucks down the street. Overall, the room is for ONE PERSON, no problem. Two people is a tight fit. :(:(

Rock hard bed, you can hear everything happening in the rooms next to you, outside and down the road, even the mini fridge beeping all night, there was a leak in the bathroom so you could hear dripping all night. We’ve stayed at this particular motel 6 before but this was probably the worst experience
