The room we booked; kitchenette was not available when we checked in. Was told those are only for long term stays. Room was okay, nothing fancy and half the TV channels did not come in. Very loud in the morning with all the diesel trucks and workers leaving for the day. But... the ice machine worked good!

THE BATH TUB AND SHOWER CURTAIN WAS DISGUSTING. THE RECEPTIONIST WAS VERY RUDE! THE POOL ADVERTISED DOESN'T HAVE WATER IN IT. A TOILET IS SITTING OUT BESIDE THE STAIRS GOING UPSTAIRS TO THE ROOM. JUST NOT VERY WELL AT ALL THERE.

An older motel, that still allows smoking. Smokers get 1st floor luxury, if your a nonsmoker, you get 2nd floor and there are NO elevators. Smoke rises so non smoking room smells like a smoking room.

I enjoyed staying here it's not a 5 star hotel but for the price it's a great option. Only dislike is that the pool was out of commission for the two days/nights I stayed here.

The rooms were dirty,bodily fluids on dirty sheets and pillows,foul smell,did nothing to try and accommodate for the filthyness of the hotel, had to take my family to another hotel to stay after paying motel 6 over $500 and some dollars, didn’t care because the safety of my family comes first!

The place was a mess. The floors were black and sticky. The tv screen was smeared along with the mirror. The toilet seat was broken. The tub was nasty and I almost fell stepping in the shower because the tub looked oily. The water knob in the shower was broken. Room 108 smelled like bleach when entering but was anything but clean. Even the towels had black stains on them. I have photos but couldn't get them off of my laptop.

The good price came with cockroaches and stained sheets. The 1st room we had baby cockroaches in the bathroom. We asked for a different room and once we opened the door and turned on the light there were cockroaches in this room as well. I told the guy at the front desk that I wanted my money back and he said he couldn’t do that. He took us to another room this time on the 2nd floor. No bugs, but stained sheets, the mattress pad underneath had stains, there were holes in the blanket. The smoke detector beeped all night. There was a hole in the wall.

It was a cheap place to stay at. I wasn’t expecting everything to be perfect, but I was at least expecting the room to be cleaned properly. It seemed like the cleaner just came in and wiped the counter tops half heartedly, as you could see dirt in the corners of every surface. The bed sheet had cigarette burns in it, as well the room smelled musty when I entered it. Most likely would be looking at other options.

One night stay - check in was smooth and easy - wifi password was on the card with the key. facility was clean and in order - AC was cool and in south Alabama in the late summer that is IMPORTANT. it was a noisy area - I suppose Motel 6 can't really help that but it DID impact my sleep and thus this review - it was but $30 or so the least expensive place in the area and I would consider staying there again - if I don't have an early morning appointment and can sleep in a bit to catch up!

My husband and I stayed at this location for almost 2 weeks. We changed rooms multiple times, with each room having issues. From leaks, to clogged drains, springy mattresses, arguing neighbors, barking dogs, inoperable TV’s and air conditioners…we’ve experienced it all in those 2 weeks.

Service was bad from the start. I booked a room with a kitchenette, however I was given a room without one. When I went to the office to explain that I booked a room with a kitchenette the attendant tried to tell me that’s not what my reservation says, so I show him my reservation on my phone. He then puts me in a dirty room with a bigger fridge but no stove. I basically paid for something I didn’t get and wasn’t reimbursed for the difference in cost. I will never stay here again!!!!!

Made reservations for Monday thru Friday. Due to hurricane we chose to come a day early, couldn't update on Expedia so had to do a separate reservation. Front desk said they didn't have the original reservation and only had the first night. Kicked us out of the room an hour before check out. Toilet seat and faucet were broken. Then that afternoon they called and magically found the original reservation. Luckily we found a better hotel at same price and used a different reservation site. Won't be using Expedia or motel 6 again.

I stay at this property multiple times annually, this time i was given a room on the second floor halfway between two stairwells (although there are empty rooms on the first floor) the sheets had to be changed, big hole in wall by bed, tub doesn't drain well. The property owner is very kind, the area is safe, walkable and reasonably priced. I will stay here again, just not satisfied with this particular time and room. Have been pleased every other time
