We wanted cheap and you get what you pay for. The help was very nice and helpful. The room was bare and dated, but it worked. The thin walls were noisy.

No working ice machine + Our stay at Motel 6 was terrible. The first room didn’t have a working TV, so we had to switch. The second room wasn’t any better—people stomped on the floor above us most of the night, making it nearly impossible to sleep. I promised my wife we would never stay at a Motel 6 again.

What I didnt like upon arriving after an 8 hour drive is the room smelled like mold and when i requested a different room, she asked you are not from around here? No, but i dont expect to smell mold or musty. I don't live far from the ocean and have not ever expereinced that smell and or rude customer service. 10/10 do not recommend this establishment!
