We came down for the Auburn game. The hotel is OK. It probably needs a facelift for each room. Ours had water damage on the ceiling, oddly sticky floors, no shampoo ( soap only) , no coffee , an electrical outlet that didnt work and probably a few things Im missing.

Nope. No bugs for us.

Check in, parking and exterior were basic but fine. The room was a huge issue. Bugs crawling on side of bed and same type of bug dead on nightstand. Immediately exited the room and left for another hotel. Room was also in terrible condition. Food left in fridge, rust on things, poor upkeep.

This motel has a bug problem. I checked in around 8pm, left around 10pm to sleep in my car. Killed about 3 small roaches and a big fly before running out of bug spray. I immediately went to the store to buy more roach killer. The microwave had built up grime on the door and the fridge was not running cold. There were thick spider webs where the wall and ceiling meet. After I sprayed, another little roach came from under the bed. There was also a small dead bug on the top of the headboard. I felt like moving to another room wasn’t satisfactory; the entire motel is probably filthy. I ended up checking out early. Only positive was the front desk clerk and housekeeper were nice.

Both people I talked to at the front desk were very nice. The young lady I spoke to when I arrived allowed me to check in and recieve my room card early because I was at an event during normal check in time. So im quite thankful for not having to check in at 10pm when I returned. The bathroom door was not attached at the top hinge and you can see its been repaired several times. Someone tried to use drywall anchor sleeves to get the screws to hold. When I left I let the gentleman at the desk know and he said he would contact maintenence. All n all I paid for a place to sleep and I got that.

Money back

We booked a smoke free room but the place was overwhelming with old cigarette smell. The sheets were not clean. The smoke was so bad it burnt the inside of my nose. We checked out a day early at 9:00. We asked the motel to refund us and they told us to constact Hotel.com. We purchased a protection plan on out visit. We ask that we are refunded our night that we didn't stay. Thank you for you understanding.

Never Again!

I was so disgusted by this hotel. I don't know who is writing reviews saying this place is good but don't listen to it. I don't like writing negative reviews but this one demands it. From difficulty at check in to the room being gross. The bathroom towels were in terrible shape, one had a huge hole in it and they were stiff as boards. The faucet handle spun around, there was hair on the night side table, the beds looked as though they hadn't been recently slept in and pretty sure this was the case as the bed had sand in it. I almost slept in my car. I had to book this hotel as it was the only option left for a last minute stay on a game day at Auburn. Never Again!

If I could give this property a negative score I would. Here are a few things that were wrong: bathroom dirty, bathroom leaked and had to always wear shoes, old bar of soap behind nasty toilet, towels nasty and had to struggle to get a replacement washcloth, no plug for lamp on one of the side tables, bugs alive and dead everywhere, dirt piled up in corners, stunk. I have reached out to Motel 6 for rectification and have yet to get a resolution. We have stayed in rougher areas and had better rooms than this. This place should be an embarrassment to the Motel 6 chain.

This hotel is run down, dirty and smelly. Greasy handprints on the headboard. Sheets have stains on them. Bathroom doorknob had spackle all over it. And worst of all the room reeked strongly of cigarette smoke. This is the worst hotel/room in which I have ever stayed.

I normal don’t complain but this was an exception!

I arrived to the hotel staff was friendly and quick. When I got to my room I was in disbelief, the beds had been made but the sheets were dirty, the toilet was nasty- had not been cleaned. I went down to talk to staff about it, she offered for them to come and clean it. I went back up because my daughter was waiting in me, we happen to open the fridge and almost threw up, and there was trash left from previous people. I went back down and asked for a refund, she offered another room. I declined.
