The staff is very kind. The only issue I have every time is that they half clean the rooms. If it looks clean they’ll leave it as is. It’s always hair left in the shower, sink and on the floor. The sheets aren’t changed all the time,it looks clean but will have hair in the sheets. The bottom of the toilet doesn’t get clean. Used towels get folded and put back. Used towels still were still hung up behind the door. Used soap was still in the shower. I stay here a few days out the week because I travel for work. It’s very decent for the price of your booking online. It’s better than Super 8

You can’t expect much when you’re staying at a motel six however the entire facility smelled of smoke and every night there were people running up and down the hall, screaming and yelling from 11 PM all the way through 4 AM. Earlier in the evening, I asked the management to ask the neighbors next-door to turn the music down and she asked me if I thought it was loud and went into the same room so clearly She was part of the problem. Also, they never cleaned our room. I had to ask for extra towels and the towels looked like hand towels, not bath towel towels that you would dry off with. I made a mistake and booked for the wrong weekend and this is what I got, but I would absolutely never stay here again.

Mold on the bathroom wall. Looked like peeling paint on the shower floor and mold so did not use. The bedroom walls looked like smeared poop, bugars and unknown substance. Cockroach in the bathroom.

It was ok overall

It's a motel 6 I wasn't expecting anything over the top but the room was dirty, it was given a landlord special on so called remodeling of the rooms. It had a funky smell that of old smoke mixed with mold. The bed was comfortable and AC worked with no problem. No iron, no shampoo or conditioner. Microwave and fridge in room.

Just NO

Glad we were only there overnight!!! The bathroom was gross, we actually got up in the morning and just said we’d wait to het home to shower. I used an extra shirt to dry off when I washed my face and teeth because the towels provided seemed anything but clean. The wall was peeling off inside the shower and there was visible mold. Bed appeared borderline clean. Like washed in sub-standard machine with double generic detergent.
