Motel 6 Lincoln, NE - Airport
Had to give 5 star. My Bassett got a treat and a belly rub from the front desk so it’s 5 star all the way. Nice people. He was having trouble with the computer system but handled it with class and humor making it less of a problem. Definitely stop in again if I’m in the area
