I base all of my reviews on what I expect from that chain. I will not review a Motel 6 and base my expectations on a four-star hotel.
This was my first stay at this property. I don’t understand any of the complaints in previous reviews.
Parking: Free parking. Finding a spot can be an issue if the hotel is busy. The night I was there, I got the last open spot and that was only at 8pm
Check-in: Fast, friendly and easy!
Getting the type of room I request: No! I reserved a king and was given two fulls.
The Room: A typical Holiday Inn Express
Heads up! The sink is not in the bathroom. It is in the hotel room space. You walk in, there is the closet and then the sink. The sink is nice size and well lit, but if you are sharing your room, you cannot use the sink and not disturb the person with you.
Bed: Just OK. They say their pillows are soft and firm but they all seem the same to me, which is not good. They are all too thick.
TV: Disappointing. It is an old tube TV. That is not the issue. The lack of channels was the problem. Less than 30 channels. That is ridiculous today.
Bathroom: Very small. Average lighting. Shower/tub combo. Adjustable shower head and a curved shower curtain
Room Cleanliness: Clean,
Temperature control: I did not use it.
Outside sound: Minimal! I had an adjourning room so I heard the people next door but it was not that bad. Of course you hear the occasional door closing out in the hallway. (If you are reading this review you have stayed in a hotel before. Help cut down on slamming doors by slowly closing your door and not letting it slam shut)
Lighting: My pet peeve in hotels is lack of lighting. The light in the room was more than adequate.
Work Space: Nice desk and office chair with a lamp.
Internet: FREE - wireless. It was hard to access at night but easy to access in the morning.
Restaurants: Typical, free HIE breakfast. Very nice and large area to eat that was well maintained.
Gym: Small with three recumbent type machines.
Pool: Yes, small and outdoors
Elevators: Two and they are fast.
Location: Very convenient on a major road. Easy to get too. Lots of stores and restaurants nearby.
Would I stay here again? Yes at the right rate.
