Stayed 4 nights

We had a reservation for 4 nights. They set us up in a room with no mini fridge and no microwave. When I asked the front desk for a room with these, she told me that I had not requested them. I have NEVER had to request these at any other hotel/motel in the past 30 years. They did give us a new room with the standard amenities but rotating plate was missing the microwave and there was a piece of ice the size of Manhattan in the fridge that made using it difficult. Fortunately the iceberg broke off and I could store my creamer. No coffee maker in the room but I brought my Keurig. There's another hotel next door that may be a little more but I would probably try it next time.

They are installing new locks in the doors. Old ones swipe, new ones tap. I got a swipe key for my room instead of the tap key. That's TRIP 1 to the office. But when they gave me a new tap card, and i gave back the swipe card, i needed that to get into the parking lot through the gate. So back to the office TRIP 2. TRIP 3 included needing more personal items because the bathroom wasn't stocked well. TRIP 4 wasn't used - I'm not going back to the office to trek then ABOUT THE COCKROACH INFESTATION. I'm sure they're well aware of the issue from previous complaints. Every morning I'd wake up and all new COCKROACHES were scattering from the light. I'll never stay here again. $50 more gets you right next door.

Pretty much bottom of the barrel here. The woman at the front desk was smoking weed, got to approached by some tweaked on the way to our room etc. Sheets were visibly dirty, patches and mold on walls, nothing to do nearby. Only time I would do it is for a last minute life or death pinch. One positive, there was a security guard and gate to give some sense of security.

It was a decent place to stay. Reasonably priced for the area and close to the venue but didn't have a microwave or refrigerator. The door was bent and didn't look like it was closed all the way, not a very good area, but everyone was cool and friendly. I would definitely stay there again for the price and location

I chose this motel because it is extremely dog-friendly, and I was traveling with two dogs and booking late in the evening for the same night. While that aspect worked as advertised, I cannot recommend staying here in good faith unless you are constrained by circumstances or a tight budget. The room was not very clean—there were several dead bugs scattered on the floor—and the overall surroundings did not feel particularly reassuring.

You get what you pay for. Room was cheap, but it stank of cigarettes. AC didn't work, there was food left in the fridge, exposed wires in the wall, hair in the bed, and the TV was broken. Also some serious safety concerns. My friend and I checked into the room, and about two hours later heard a rattle at the door. We ignored it and peeked out the window a few minutes later and saw and imprint in the glass of a person's forehead and nose. This happened more than once in the night where we would hear the door jiggle in the night.

My room was a Non-smoking room but it still smelled like smoke. Thank goodness I travel with a can of Lysol Spray. The bathroom sink faucet AND the shower head were wobbly. Needed to be fixed. The ceiling was dripping water into a trash can. If you don't like the thumping of loud music, don't stay here!! So many inconsiderate people had their music blasting.

Despite their famed popularity amongst road trippers with pets, this particular location was quite dated and felt very unsafe. Each night of our 2-night stay we were yanked out of sleep by very violent fights taking place, with lots of screaming and swearing. Moreover, the thermostat in our room was not functional, so the first night it only blew cold air and the next only hot, so both nights were uncomfortable. Finally, our room constantly smelled like cigarettes and marijuana, as if it were leaking through the walls. Some are good enough, this one wasn't.

Let’s start with the gentleman at the counter informed me there was another $50.00 deposit because I used the Expedia App to make reservations and paid the balance through the app. Also to boot it would be put back on my card in 4-5 business days, like seriously I just paid $88 dollars on the app that came to $98.00 then another $50.00; now that $149.00 for a room in the hood. Oh and they got you by the naads because you have already paid on line and that non refundable so you can’t cancel and go somewhere else and now you have to give them another $50 dollars that they say will be back on your card in 4-5 days I’m sure I’ll have to call to get back. Sleep in you car, I’m sure you’ll have better accommodations.

Woman at the front was extremely rude as I was nothing but friendly and nice to her. (I get it tho it was Monday), the strong odor around the entire building was nothing but urine and cigarettes not to mention the inside of the rooms reeked of cigarette smoke. My neighbors had no working lights in their room! When they consulted the front their answer was “there’s one underneath your bathroom sink” haha seriously? So they gave them a little portable light to plug in lol. Anyway extremely dissatisfied and will never book a motel 6 ever again. Completely overcharged for what I received.

A quiet part of the city with grocery shopping options nearby. Busy traffic over Memorial weekend but easy access to buses/Met.transport. Tidy facilities and pleasant,helpful staff. Clean,tidy room with a very comfortable bed. We chose the room only option so it was an economic stay for us on a low budget.
