The requirement at Motel 6 for every person staying to provide ID is bizarre...after travelling all day and getting there after midnight we just wanted to crash, not go back to car and hunt for IDs. Lobby reeked of weed. Hotel is run down and in rough shape. My family wanted to leave and drive home through the night instead of staying. First an only time I'll stay at any Motel 6.

Other guests screaming through night, fighting. Smell of dope was prevalent. People hanging out in the lobby. Some staff were seedy and seemed bothered to have to check me in. Some to l towels had stains on them. Seemed like a spot that housed people that had addiction issues. Not a safe spot

Quiet

Needed a place to sleep after a long journey home from overseas. This fit the bill and allowed us to continue our trip back home feeling more rested. The room was basic and quiet with a comfortable bed.
