A wonderful place to rest with a pool, easy access to restaurants, shopping, movie theatres and mor
Pros:

The owners are very responsible and professional. They are also very kind. And I truly think they try to help people.

Cons:

The people that smoke stand on the Hotel sidewalk and smoke, so smoke leaks into the other rooms and people are bad about throwing their cigarette butts on the side walk and parking area.

Cons:

this location did not have breakfast and the coffee was dang near cold I didn't like that..much and some of the staff was very hostile...and rude no real hospitality here...and $85 is very pricey for a room there...and just not enough places to go in the area to eat at. Also my tv didn't work and management did nothing about the issue.ugh

Location and pool were mainly the only positives
Pros:

Location and pool

Cons:

I think motel 6’s have lost their standards. Check in was smooth at first until we got to our room and it was boiling hot even with the AC on 61 it was blowing hot air. They tried to offer to call maintenance and I said absolutely not I am not waiting for maintenance after a five hour flight. They agreed to change the room. We get to the next room and it is cool but upon unpacking my stuff to take a shower the bathtub was absolutely disgusting with soap left on the tub floor, random hairs on the shower wall, a moldy disgusting floor mat and also a roach. There was also a broken floor piece that someone could truly get hurt on. There was no way I was showering in there. I call the front desk and he agrees to switch us to another room. It was not king bed like I originally booked but we took the room and it was just okay. There was mold spots on the ceiling, the ac did its job but honestly could have been cooler. We had another recent bad experience with a motel 6 in Nashua and I just feel they have lost their standards across the board as a business. Very disappointed. Positives for this establishment is location, pool and the front desk actually helped us jump start our car.
