I've never stayed at a Motel 6 before. I sold my house and was homeless for the Labor Day weekend. This was a great stress-free experience. The staff was amazingly helpful (Raj) and accommodating. I got a room with kitchenette and I have dogs...it was so convenient to walk the dogs around the property and back by the other hotels nearby. Walmart and Wegmans right across the street for groceries as well as many restaurants. I could see my car from the room and the parking was well-lit. It was super quiet, the bed was very comfy and the pillows excellent. Overall the best stay, great deal, coffee in lobby in AM, free parking and free dogs. A+++++

We just needed a clean afordable place to stay close to the highway on our drive north. This hotel was perfect for that. We did not need to enjoy the amenities or anything else just needed beds for family of 5. Two rooms with full beds were more affordable than any other we could find.

The room was clean, had two simple but comfortable beds, a microwave, big fridge and a hot shower. I can't ask for more than that from a budget hotel. The lobby and first floor smell like stale cigarette smoke, but that's what you need to accept if you want a budget hotel; the smokers have been excluded from all the fancy hotels.
