Staff and overall cleanliness top notch...for a Motel 6 - and I mean that with all due respect.
They were very respectful, professional and courteous, for any hotel. Only problem IMHO was the floors weren't clean to match everything else.

Liked the renovated room. Felt clean and comfortable and convenient location to where I work.
Lights and plugs and usb port next to the headboard did not work but the lighting in the rest of the room was more than sufficient so it didn’t bother me that much
Bathroom was lovely.
Would stay again.

The room was in good condition and the staff was nice. I was put in the room upstairs farthest away from the lobby and the WiFi was very spotty. And whatever service you use for overnight support in the lobby is not good. It was a woman who didn’t seem to speak English because when I asked them for help they took off their headphones and just stared at me and another woman leaned in from off screen and appeared to take a picture of me. Very strange experience when all I was looking for was the WiFi password.
