An okay place to stay, no tissues in room or hand lotion. Bed was comfortable, allowed smoking, which was a plus.

Updated and convenient
Old motel, updated rooms and convenient location. Only issue was the light that seeped in at night through the window shade and door frame.

Great value for the price. Nice lobby and spacious dog walking yard out back. Conveniently located near Skyline Drive. Overall, probably the best Motel 6 we've ever stayed in.

Sweet little motel, it was very quiet. Shower head in one room wasn’t the best but we survived. We had two rooms and was happy with both. Close to McDonald and Walmart and walkable to Sheetz gas station. AC nice and cold. We would stay here again.

Great motel for pets and hikers
Came here because it’s affordable, easy access to the National Park, and dog friendly. My dogs loved staying there and they even have a doggy area in the back with poo bags, etc. Walking distance of gas and food place. Very nice lobby and staff, along with free coffee in the morning. Staff were welcoming. It is VERY basic, but it does the trick and felt comfortable there. Will return.

The beds were very uncomfortable. The lady at the front desk was rude and unfriendly. The neighbor was very loud all night . You can hear everything thing through the walls . 2 stair cases were unavailable to use . The pipes scratched and made noises randomly the whole 8 nights we were there. The toilet ran constantly. They took the dirty towels then did not put the same amount back then try to say you took them upon check out so they can keep your deposit . I reserved to rooms the door knob in the one room was broke and the floor was literally coming up . We will not be returning there . I do not recommend this hotel.

Good over night spot
The hotel was fine, nothing fancy. Clean and quiet. It did have a large yard for grilling and pets. And it is indeed pet friendly.

This place was so nice. We loved the patio area outside our door. Although it is an old motel, it has been well maintained and was very comfortable.
