It was late into the night, and there was partying in the rooms next to ours. In the bathroom, I found a large live roach and recorded it on video. I wasn't eager to stay a second night there, but Expedia wouldn't issue a refund, citing that they couldn't do more because they couldn't contact the motel staff.

The room was in good condition and the staff was nice. I was put in the room upstairs farthest away from the lobby and the WiFi was very spotty. And whatever service you use for overnight support in the lobby is not good. It was a woman who didn’t seem to speak English because when I asked them for help they took off their headphones and just stared at me and another woman leaned in from off screen and appeared to take a picture of me. Very strange experience when all I was looking for was the WiFi password.

Staff and overall cleanliness top notch...for a Motel 6 - and I mean that with all due respect. They were very respectful, professional and courteous, for any hotel. Only problem IMHO was the floors weren't clean to match everything else.
