“Motel 6 Wilkes Barre Arena sits conveniently near I-81, and while that's a definite plus for travelers, some rooms could use a little more attention; I did read about a guest who found the fixtures a bit off. I see that the hotel welcomes pets without charging extra, which is a real find, and having laundry on-site makes longer stays much easier. It's a practical spot, close to the Mohegan Sun Arena.”
