Could change the lighting in hotel
Also some showers heads need to be changed
Or use scum to make the water come out clearly from the shower head
Some shower heads are to old or too clogged up
But overall if you looking for somewhere convenient clean with local stores and food places nearby Then this motel is it
Also the staff members are super friendly and respectful ⭐⭐⭐⭐🌟💖💜
Lighting in bathrooms is too dark
Also some shower heads are jacked up
But overall it's nice the staff is nice people
Good place for a reasonable price
Location and pet friendly wise this motel was excellent. The major downside was the property smelling like cigarette smoke to include the inside of our room despite it being a non-smoking motel.

Had the never to stay tonight’s !!! First night too tired to drive and took the nearest ! Then my stupid ass stayed another night and boy was I furious !! I’ll let the pics speak
The staff at this Motel 6 were very friendly and super helpful in the event that my luggage was lost by the airlines. They received it and held it and kept it safe for me. They’re friendly, kind, and efficient. I can’t wait to go back and stay with them in New Orleans again.
