Motel 6 Hazelwood, MO

8/10 Good

"Just needing a place to sleep for the night, the price was reasonable. The room was sufficient without any extras. Very minimalist in furnishings, but sufficient for a 16 hour stay. The photos on your website are misleading. They must have been from the day it opened and don’t capture its appearance today. Again, it is sufficient for an overnight stay if you are watching expenses."
