Cheap is not better!

It was a roof over my head.

The weather was bad. 22 degrees and the heating in the room was terrible. There were no blankets for the bed. When I asked the front desk for a blanket they laughed and said they didn't have any. Would I stay there again? No

1.0 / 10.0

Not good all the way around

Nothing other then friendly staff

Let’s see where to start very old building and furniture trimming coming off furniture bath tub had a big chip in molding coming off everywhere and mold it looks like.

1.0 / 10.0

Stay away from this place

Price only!!!!

Facility is falling apart, the rooms are all in bad shape and all smell like cigarettes, stained towels and bad showers that overflow. The A/C unit was very bad maintained you can visibly see black mold and clogged. I will never recommend this place to anyone for your health sake.

3.0 / 10.0

Just barely acceptable

I was expecting it to have microwave and micro fridge. The rooms were very small. A/C was amazing. The vending machine took my money and when I told staff they said not the motels machine so I was out my 3$ I put in machine.

Read above

2.0 / 10.0

Awful.

The staff were nice & it was in a good spot according to food & shopping.

DONT stay here! It was dirty, the room hadn’t been cleaned beforehand. There were dead crickets in the room, the door wouldn’t close properly so the traffic from outside was very clear. The bed was small, the sheets smelled like smoke. The windowsills were very dusty. There was mold all over the bathroom. We stayed there for 3 nights & there was no maid service so no clean towels. I could go on but we were just happy to get out of there by the end!! Spend the extra 20 dollars & stay somewhere else…

Dirtiest room I have ever been in

1.0 / 10.0

Waste of money

I honestly can't say I liked anything about this location

Honestly, where should I start, I know that most people that leave bad reviews have high standards. But I do not LOL And this motel 6 still managed to lower my standards. I've never seen such bad customer service and lack of cleanliness and safety Me and my mother were traveling alone. We were placed in room 126, ground floor. No extra security lock. Deadbolt lock whatever it's called. It looked like it was ripped off the wall like someone had come in through that room with aggressive intent. There was feces smeared on the bathroom wall near the toilets and toilet paper dispenser. Honestly, I'm praying it wasn't human. Because they were not able to change our room until the following day. Me and my mother did not sleep at all because it it sounded like someone was jiggling the handle and with no extra security. Didn't feel safe. The sheets were dirty and muddy, and I swear that room has bed, bugs. Or fleas and ticks. The bed was extremely itchy throughout the night so it's not like sleep was even an option. The following morning I did have a whole bunch of little red bumps all over my body. Bug bites of some sort The TV didn't work. It turned on, and ESPN was on but according to changing channels that wasn't an option. The TV did not have any manual controls to change channel or volume. And the remote was nowhere to be found. I did go up to the office and complain about that part as well. She gave me several different remotes. None of which worked. There were earwigs roaches And ants. And I didn't have any food in the room. We dined out for good reason Room size: if you are traveling and are on the hefty side like myself. Getting to the bed in a normal way is very difficult. There is less than a foot between each bed. Very cramped space. And honestly it was easier just to climb in at the foot of the bed..

1.0 / 10.0

Good riddance!

Location

There was no blanket. Asked for one was told housekeeping wouldn’t get there till 930 still didn’t get one so I bought one. The tub is DISGUSTING. The AC didn’t blow hardly any air. Location should hire security. LOTS of sketchy stuff going on.

1.0 / 10.0

Nasty Establishment

Absolutely nothing. The pictures on Booking are not the same as the place we went to.

We took one look inside the room and left. The pictures on Booking are not the same as the place. The room was filthy. The sheets had stains and cigarette burns. And to top it off, there were roaches. Worst pla e to stay. We told the person in reception about the problems and requested a refund, but she said, "You get what you pay for." We ended up Booking something else for that same night a little further than the event we were going to.

7.0 / 10.0

Great for larger families with tight budgets. Pool a main feature. Did speak English very well .

Street level, parking right outside room. Handicap equipped.

I was there 3 days and nobody ever left me fresh towels or changed bed.

6.0 / 10.0

Other than the staff not cleaning the room upon request. All in all the stay was pleasant!

Easy access to the room

The fact that they didn’t have easy access to a wheelchair accessible room from the back.

Definitely will return .

Clean rooms, clean restrooms, clean pool. Comfort bed

Bad

Booking was last minute so the rate was right. But it's how the saying goes, you get what you paid for!

That I booked the room for two travelers and it had enough towels for one. They left a dirty towel from the previous people. There were hairs all over the bath tub as if it hadn't been cleaned. The cups had some sort of sticky concoction eww.

1.0 / 10.0

Very disgusting place the picture are nothing like they say

Property was okay with nice pool

Very dirty walls, dirty bath tubs. Mold on the bed where I slept all over the edge of the bed black mold and a baggie of cocaine residue was left on the table and my kids 5 years old saw it before I did while I was unloading our luggage into the room

7.0 / 10.0

Great value for a quick trip.

Updated rooms, great location near restaurants, shopping and softball fields.

The exterior of the motel was kind of rough looking, older, could use some paint and minor maintenance.

The room was disgustingly dirty it didn’t look like it had been cleaned at all. Thankfully I always bring cleaning and disinfectant supplies with me just in case. The bathroom had not been touch there was hair n bugs everywhere. The commode was dirty there old dry blood on it. Wet towels were left in tub. Just gross. I had Clorox everything n spray disinfectant all over everything. Thank god this time I had brought sheets n blankets we covered the bed with n used our own blanket. Never again would I stay here or recommend. This place needs to shut down.

It was the worst place I stayed in. I even checked out early and went some where else.

There wasn't any

One of the staff tried to lie and say check out time was 6:30 am and no dogs allowed over 50lb. Which that was also a lie. There is no weight limit for one dog. Only weight limit of 150lbs for 2 dogs. There was holes in the wall. Hair in the tub. The ice machine had a bad odor. I think it had mold. The washer and dryer doesn't work. I didn't feel safe there either. There was a lot of drug addicts everywhere. Do not ever bring kids there. It isn't safe.

1.0 / 10.0

Horrible

Nothing

Apparently people live here so they all up all hours of the night. I could hear people partying at 3 am. Didn’t feel safe. Paid for two nights stayed only one. I figured my loss was worth my safety.

2.0 / 10.0

Uncomfortable stay

I liked the location and the price before I experienced the property.

They didn’t have a quilt on my bed, and when I called to ask for one, the attendant told me to wait until 11:00 pm since a different attendant will be there. I waited until 11:00 pm to ask the new attendant for a quilt, and there wasn’t one available. She gave me 4 bed sheets instead which was better than nothing. We also noticed that the floor was moist, so when we walked around the room, we made sure to put our shoes on.

room needed more cleaning it was dirty ,bedsheets were so hot with the plastic cover, they didn’t clean the room how they said they did i had to call them, overall bad Motel !

4.0 / 10.0

Next time I am staying somewhere else.

The location is very convenient. It is located near the university and right off of Hwy. 35. The a/c worked well and didn't make weird noises. The beds are relatively comfortable. The bathtub faucet in this unit did not leak.

My comforter had a stain near the bottom right. There was a tear above it. This is considered an affordable hotel, but I still expect clean linens. I wasn't sure whether the comforter had been laundered. The floor felt sticky; It didn't feel clean. This time there were some unsavory occupants staring at us at we entered the room. I did see plenty of college-age students and parents, but it was unnerving to have three people standing across the courtyard watching us.

1.0 / 10.0

Worst motel 6 ever!!!! It deserves a negative rating 😡

I did not like anything about the place. It was totally horrible and a nightmare. I wouldn't recommend anyone to stay even a single night here.

The bedsheets were dirty, the blanket had holes and stains. There was a nasty T-shirt hanging in the bathroom from the previous stay. All the towels were not properly cleaned. Most importantly, the mattress was so poor quality that anyone will struggle to sleep there. I have stayed in many Motel 6 before, but this is disgusting. Generally I do not give such reviews to any hotel, but I think people must know about the place.

There were Knats and roaches complained and was told she woukd cone handke it. Noone showed up. Talking on the phone and noticed a roach crawling in the bed. Called the front desk to ask for refund so I could move to another hotel was told I had to wait 3 to 4 days. I can't wait 3 to 4 days I'll wait in my car for management to come. Stayed in the car from 3am to 10 am. Management assured me that she had another room that was better. First room 106 I stepped into has a roach on the cups. Went to the next room 108 Knats called front desk and they sent maintenance in with vinegar to pour down drain. Next morning went to store to get Knats stuff. Woke up next morning and roaches crawling like crazy. Checked at and told the front desk and showed her video of the roaches , her reply was u agreed to stay. Excuse me u assured me that this room would be better. I request a refund she told me she would only give me a refund for a day. How come I stayed for 3 days because I had no money to move any where else and she told me the refund would take not 3 to 4 days she said 7 to 10 days. Please shut this place down. I believe the people staying there don't have any place else to go like me I was stuck. Anytime u r moved to 3 rooms and they ALL have bugs that mean the entire place is infected. I would like to have my total refund. She said she would refund one day and I haven't even got that .My stay was from the may 20 to the 23. Also I booked for a double room I got a single room.
