The staff (Dorothy/Dot) was super helpful and friendly. The rooms were very clean and spacious for a single occupant. Very close to the downtown area with some really great shops and restaurants.
Much nicer motel 6 than my previous experiences, very easy and friendly check-in, I liked the layout of the room and the seating options. Only downside was the shower drained very slowly creating a pool of water pretty fast. I only stayed one night and was able to shower so wasn’t a major issue. Water took a long time to heat up.
The staff were kind and attentive. However, the room had a bad smell and the noise from the freeway was overwhelming. Great if you’re traveling with pets.
The service was good but the rooms were tiny and outdated. This establishment needs a serious upgrade for the rooms. The location was near the freeway and our room did not have any freeway noise issues.
Staff for check in and check out were amazing ! No problems with our hotel room either .

Staff was courteous and helpful. Room was small but clean. Laundry room was very convenient. Traffic noise throughout the night. Reasonable price for this expensive destination.

Room was clean and the staff were nice.
The only sad thing is that is too close to the freeway and the trucks driving by are loud.
