Toilet was not secured to floor, no shampoo or conditioner in bathroom, room was clean. Pillows were flat, one had what seemed to be some of the filling all stuck together in a wad. Not a great experience, thankfully we were ony there for 6 hrs or so.

Remotes are kept at the desk. You have to go get one then program it to the tv. The cable had been cut in our room so no tv after all. The toilet ran all night, the bed was bit hard, and the a/c wouldnt go below 72. Other than that its was at least clean

Definitely a pet friendly place. Rooms are spacious because they don't stuff it full of furniture. But there is sufficient counter space, a table and chairs, a microwave, and fridge. A good value for the basics. I would choose this hotel again!

Not the worst Motel 6 I’ve been to by a long shot. However, we requested 2 nonsmoking rooms (had made the reservations quite some time ago), and they put my asthmatic mother in a smoking room (had an ashtray and absolutely reeked). We told them and they just shrugged. (I switched rooms with my mom, as I don’t mind smoke too much, but everything I had in there still smells like smoke.)

The room was ok until I pulled off the sheets and mattress protectors to see bed bugs and mattresses that looked like they had been through some things. I got a refund and slept in my car.

The air quality in my room was incredibly poor and insufferable. I could not breath and everything in the room smelled moldy.There were black hairs on my sheets and in the shower. There was soap scum on the sink and faucet handle. Shower pressure was excellent in the morning, but I ended up having to sleep part of the night in my car becuase of my breathing issue. They would not refund my money from the night but at least let me cancel the rest of the weekend. Utterly DISGUSTING

My stay was shortened due to deplorable conditions. The only positive, was the hotel late night attendant was pleasant and responsive. The manager and attendant worked together early the next morning to credit me for the second night of my planned two night stay since my first night experience was so miserable. Conditions are poor, worst property I have ever stayed.

The place isn’t the best place but offers weekly rate. I stayed there and was told that in case I had to leave the rest of my stay would be refunded which it wasn’t! I was just told to call them back since I informed them that it wasn’t refunded but they just gave me the run around for my money! Another hotel that takes advantage of travelers who are too tired and looking for a place to stay. This one is another that likes to take your money and not keep there word!
