Unique check-in method in my experience with a monitor for a remote process that worked quite well. The attendants were very kind even though I didn't meet them in person.

Pretty decent for a Motel 6.

You get what you pay for. But for a Motel 6, this place was alright. We would stay again on our travels. Check in was a little weird...done by video. The little restaurant next door was amazing. Good experience overall...for the price point.
