The room had cob webs and dust on their lampshades, stains on their bedding, flooring was cracked, three hooks holding up the shower curtain, air conditioner was all torn apart on the outside. I had stayed at this property after they first renovated a few years ago and it looks as if they haven’t done anything with it since then.

It was ok, crowded parking lot, but lots of lights and cameras made it feel better and a little safer. My room smelt like it used to be a smoking room, dim lighting, but again this is an older motel 6. If you just need a place to get by, this one works.

The clientele is kind of shaky, they check EVERYONE ‘s ID, you don’t feel very secure. The beds are against the walls so you have to crawl in if there are two people per bed, bedsheets old and very wrinkled, the covers dirty and stained and the floor needed a good scrubbing. The sink and the bathroom were OK.

Desk staff is extremely friendly. Room was very dirty and had a moldy smell. I went and bought cleaning supplies and disinfected the room. My trip was for work so it wasn’t a big deal for me. Pool area was very clean and taken care of.

I was able to easily book this online and check-in was fast. That is the end of anything nice I can say. The room was supposed to be non-smoking and absolutely reeked of years old cigarettes. The mini fridge leaked all over the floor prior to checkin (and with the floor swollen appears to be that way for a really long time). I had to leave a towel on the floor during my stay to avoid wet feet. The place was not clean and the toilet leaked and refilled all night long. This was an emergency stay so I had no other choice but would probably sleep in my car rather than stay here in the future.

No room

We had a nonrefundable room but the hotel had no rooms available so I lost my money.
