A new motel is open for business in an old place.
Motel 6 opened its doors at the site of an old Holiday Inn near the intersection of Route 234 and Interstate 95 near Dumfries. The Holiday Inn is now located across Route 234.
The motel was built in the mid-1970s and has 118 rooms, a full-service restaurant, four event rooms. The motel has a swimming pool and courtyard that gives the model the feel of a small resort versus the closed-in roadside hotels built today.
