We did not even had a chance to walk in the door. When we arrived around 8:30 pm the parking was dark and not lit up and the outside the door there was a crowd of males that look like trouble. So we left because we did not feel safe and found another hotel.

Really this would be an ok low-end property...if it was $59. But for $200, it would be nice to have a smoke-free lobby, or shampoo, or a chair in the room, or a stopper in the sink. At least it was clean.

I would say you need someone to be checking the rooms to make sure they are cleaned properly and that everything works. Someones toothpaste spit still in the sink.. hair in the shower. Toilet moves when u get up or sit down not stable. No batteries in remote and none at front desk so no tv! Pillows are from dollar tree at best very uncomfortable. Patched holes unpainted. Floors are sticky like they have a residue on them. Halls are dirty and unkept.. fingerprints all over elevator and walls. Not worth the money. Staff are friendly and try thier best.

My opinion of Motel 6 is negative 6

It was a nightmare because the first room provided to me and my family was being use by someone else. Then the second room was provided even though it was clean updates had a strong smell which make it difficult to sleep during the night. We’re scheduled for 2 nights and my family decided to leave after the first night.
