“We’ll leave the light on” unless we can get double paid then good luck!
Pros:

It's a great location and that is the only positive thing I can say about this location.

Cons:

I prepaid my room and explained via email and a phone call that I would be a late arrival. Both Motel 6 (corporate) and the gentleman I spoke with on the phone confirmed my room was available and my late arrival would be no problem. When I arrived at 1:30am they had rerented my room and didn't have a room for me. I rented two beds and was offered one bed. The catch was I needed to pay an additional $169 per night for the one-bedroom. If that was not enough the night clerk blamed Booking for over booking the motel. However, I received a confirmation email from Motel 6 months before my reservation, and the room was pre-paid for.
