Don’t stay here, spend a little more

Didn’t feel safe - numerous large dogs on the property, people outside the room door talking and smoking late at night. Room was dirty and odd - large leaking rust stain coming out of the wall in the shower, floor was oddly hot, toilet wouldn’t flush unless I took off the lid and jiggled the float, lights flickered and flashed like they were possessed.

Frendly travel

Good stay for something quick. Close to places to eat and only 2 miles from our other destination. Stay was over all okay. Beds are kinda hard, also only 1 pillow for each person and its clear they've seen better days. Shower had good pressure but light in shower room slow to turn on and corners dirty throughout room.

Place needs some improvement

When we arrived to our room, the microwave was running for whatever reason. Also, the bed was in bad need of being replaced, the mattress was sagging something fierce. For 7 out of we stars I was not happy with what we got. Lots of zombies wandering around outside if you catch my drift.

Hotel is average. Bed was clean, room was spartan but you expect that for a Motel 6. Room faced the road and thus was loud at night due to road noise. Bath came with soap but no shampoo. Refrigerator worked well though.

This is just a basic spartan motel if you need cheap accommodations in the area. Staff was pleasant and helpful. Rooms were small and spartan, but clean. They did provide a refrigerator and microwave. No shampoo was provided, only soap, and linens were at a minimum. Coffee was available in mornings but no breakfast. Area is a little rough (lots of homeless) but provides many dining and shopping options nearby. I was a little worried about my car in the parking lot considering the area and fellow guests, and management takes no responsibility for damage/theft.

OK, but noisy

I asked for a back room off of the main road, but was informed they didn't have one. It is EXTREMELY noisy facing Scottsdale Road. To deaden the noise, I had a noise machine with me AND put the fan on constant the whole night. That helped a bit.
