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!

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.

Economical and friendly

This motel advertised as no-frills and with a lower nightly price than other nearby motels, it was worth every penny.

Good place for a night stay on a road trip

Motel 6 is a basic motel good for a night stay on a road trip. One cannot expect much luxuries. Place was clean, had everything one needed for night stay, very convenient to get in and out of I-81. Several places to eat nearby. Overall, a nice place to stay for a night.
