Very clean. Friendly staff. There is road noise and a train. But that is to be expected and obvious due to its location near the highway. I have 4 stars only because the water would not get hot in the shower. It was barely warm. Others I spoke to said this was not typical of the hotel though. No place to walk your pup, BUT... there is a dog park beside the gas station on the other side of the overpass!

Please fix leaks (most likely from roof) and replace moldy sheetrock/drywall (bleach and paint doesn't cure mold, it only masks the mold). I've had a sinus infection for going on four days now because of the mold. Also hot water only lasts about 3/5 minutes before turning lukewarm/cold.

This motel is a budget motel. I didn't expect the "Ritz." However, the preview said that it had been recently remodeled and that it provided a continental breakfast. I guess the remodeling was to take out carpet and lay vinyl flooring. That was fine. There was crayon/pen markings on the inside of the door and the walls need to be painted. However, the worst part was the bathroom. The towel bar was off the wall (one of the brackets remained). The tub was missing the plug drain plug. The tub itself seemed dirty (or was that stain?). But, the worst part is that there was black mold on the walls of the bathroom. And, the ceiling tiles had these strange black things (ribbon? tape?) at several of the corners. All in all, it was a bad experience. And, that was inside. Of course, it is RIGHT on the Interstate so traffic noise was pretty loud.

Need to fix or upgrade water heater. I’m use to taking mildly warm showers. Even on the highest setting of heat for the sink and shower, the heat stayed on for maybe 3 minutes. Then it turned to cold and wouldn’t warm up for another couple of hours.

Overall this motel 6 was a mess. The outside looks like it’s old and run down. Closed business around it. The rooms were not great but livable for one night only. If you’re a lite sleeper, the trucks going down 81 will keep you up all night. I do not like to leave bad reviews but I would not stay here if you don’t have too.
