  Very tiny

  Clean but too much odor of plug-in. There´s nothing in the room except the double bed and a table with one chair and a fridge. The people are very kind. No breakfast.

  Great affordable place!

  Helpful and friendly staff! Clean room. No carpet. Quiet hotel. Good dog business spots around the hotel. No frills but a reasonable price. We would stay here again.

  Large pet friendly room

  Very clean, updated, well-appointed room for the price. Well lit outside area. Clean facilities. Great location. Great coffee available in the am. Perfect stay for traveling with pets. One of the best pet-friendly stays I have had.

  More than I expected!

  Very clean, friendly staff, great value! Rooms are newly renovated, there was a full size fridge, cooktop, microwave, small dinette and sink all for 1/3 of the price of other hotel/motels in the area! Would definitely stay again and recommend it to others.

  Great for the price

  The dogs got to stretch out on a king sized bed, so they were thrilled. Room is a bit small, but it serves its purpose. Recently remodeled. My only complaints are the room echoes (very loudly) and the curtains don't block out near enough light.

  Friendly staff, good location

  Room was spotless. It was very basic but modern and fairly new, and for the price you can't beat it.

  Just fine

  Room was clean, but the bed was hard. Next time I would request a room a bit further away from the lobby; could hear most conversations in my room.

  Glad to find a dog friendly place

  Convenient access to highway with a lot of fast food options nearby. Arrived late afternoon and the room was not ready and after a wait was moved to a second story alternative. Room was large but sparsely furnished with not much to deaden sound (no carpet anywhere). Perhaps it was an ADA designed room? There was limited green space for walking the dog on site but fortunately additional areas were nearby. Lots of fresh coffee in the morning and friendly dog living staff. Was surprised to have to have a refundable $50 pet charge and to sign a special form to assume additional liability for any damages but the charge was quickly reversed within 24 hours so no complaint with that. I’m always glad to find a place that accepts large dogs (mine is a 90 pound Rottweiler) and the rate was very competitive so all-in-all I would not hesitate to rebook on my next trip passing through the area.

  Very nice hotel

  As soon as you walk in you can smell the clean. Spotless large room with kitchenette. No pet fee for up to 2 dogs with combined weight up to 150 lbs. There were grass areas on all sides of hotel and a number of trash cans outside.

  Dog friendly for sure

  I have never traveled with my dog, usually leave her with a pet sitter. It was a great experience; the staff were all very nice and helpful. Comfortable room (very dog ready with solid flooring and not much for a dog to ruin). For the type and # of stars this hotel gets, it was very clean and comfortable. I was a very happy guest!!

  Blood on the walls

  Had blood on the door, the walls, the shower, the countertop and the phone. The door to the hallway had a gap all the way around it, and zero hot water.

  Great Motel 6

  This was a great Motel 6. If you've done any traveling and trying to save a few bucks you’ve most likely stayed at one. If so, you know that the majority of them are just trash. But this one was not. It had a kitchenette with two electric burners, a full sized fridge and kitchen sink. There was a little dining table with a little booth and chair. The employees were great and helpful when we had a tv issue. There’s a Wegman’s near by as well as multiple places to eat. It was a perfect stopping place for us and the dog. I would definitely stay there again.

  Worst Hotel Experience

  When we arrived we were pleasantly surprised to see fridge, microwave surrounded by a counter with cupboards and drawer which were EMPTY - Nothing not a single utensil. As a toiletries a small bar of soap, no shower cap and not even a blow dryer (we don't wash our hair at Motel 6). Incredible no Kleenex. no coffee in the room. Towels are barely larger than a hand towel and the thickness of a tea towel1
  Of course no lunch. To add a layer, the worst pillows (small hard: horrible). So we left very early in the morning because we did not sleep all night! We asked for an invoice (received) and that does not exist either at the motel (Worst Hotel and Worst Service). 1st experience at a Motel 6 and certainly the last!

  It was okay

  I know it’s tough finding a place to bring you pets and then the fees, but our floor was sticky and dirty. And I understand it was New Year’s Eve, but there was a lady screaming down the hall, like 3 different times, once after 1 in the morning, and she kept making my dogs bark. And like another review I read, I had two small dogs, and the lady in the lobby ran to get back in behind the desk like the poor thing was afraid. Other than that, it wasn’t awful.

  Good stay

  I just wish they would’ve put us in a room further away from the lobby. It was a little noisy for the dog but besides that it was good.

  Great Experience

  We were nervous upon arrival because we’d never before brought our dog on a hotel stay with us. Our reception at the front desk in a spotless lobby put our minds at ease. The clerk was welcoming and calming. We had a clean and inviting room on the first floor with plenty of space for our dog crate. The bed was comfortable and the kitchenette an added bonus. There was a quiet road behind the hotel that led up a hill to some wonderful views of the hills beyond town. It was a perfect place to walk our dog. Overall, couldn’t have been happier. Would stay again.

  Exactly what you expect

  It’s a Motel 6. Stayed there for a night on a road trip with our two big pups. Everything was fine.

  Horrible Experience - Stay Away

  The room at the Motel 6 was absolutely disgusting. I didn't have high expectations, as Motel 6 isn't known to be a fantastic hotel, but I never expected it to be as bad as it was. Upon entering the room, everything was damp from the humidity. There were a few spots of fuzzy green mold growing on the wall, the curtain was broken, there was a shard of glass...yes, glass...stuck in the wall, the toilet was not clean, the shower handle was damaged and did not turn on, many gouges in the walls along with lots of concerning stains on the walls, as well. We purchased our own sheets from a nearby store to lay over the bed, as we were very hesitant to use the provided bedding. With the state of the rest of the hotel, we decided to wait until morning to complain (our mistake). The only reason we stayed is because it was late and we had no other options traveling with a dog. I contacted the manager and corporate to share my concerns, along with photos. I would never recommend this hotel to anyone, as I got the feeling this was not an isolated incident!

  Clean Room

  Hotel was clean and ok if just looking for a place to lay your head for the night other than that expensive for only double size bed, no fridge, microwave or coffee pot in the room. Nowhere on website does it say animals have to be in kennel at all times when inside until you check in and have to sign pet waiver. Online only says can’t leave dogs unattended in room. Will not stay again.

  Very welcoming!

  We had 2 large dogs and it was absolutely no problem. Booked same day and they were able to accommodate. My only comment is to just be aware that entrances to rooms are not direct to outside, you have to exit through the lobby.

  Clean and comfortable

  This place is dog friendly, clean and comfortable. I have two dogs (25lbs and 45lbs). When I met staff with dogs on leash it did seem like they were frightened by them even though the dogs were not making any noise. I would stay there again.

  Roof over your head

  The rooms could have used some attention and cleaning. Not much area for walking your dog. O.k. to spend a night.

  Good Value Hotel

  Stayed there for a night with my husband and my dog. Hotel was modern and rooms were nothing fancy but were clean. No carpeting on the floor, which was great for my dust allergies. No additional pet fee as written. I will stay again. :)

  Nice enough

  This is our first trip with the dog. We were worried about finding hotel rooms and have been pleased with Motel 6 for this. Great stylish room. Dog proof. All hard surfaces. Clean. Only problem was a very slow toilet. Asked to have corrected and was handed a plunger. We would stay again.

  Very accommodating

  This new facility comes across as a European concept room. However it was a large room with two burner stove, three quarter size fridge, and flat screen TV. We used delivery for food and there were plenty of restaurants delivering to the hotel. We travel with a dog and were happy with the strip of grass and complimentary bags offered. I figured since the dog area was small travelers would not believe it was 5 stars, but really there was nothing wrong in picking this hotel.
