I am giving a poor rating, due to the fact the front desk could not find my reservation. I made a reservation on a month in advance for an adult and a child. Arriving to Motel6 and not having a room to rest with a child at close to 8pm at night, it is very frustrating. The Motel6 MANAGER was a no show (or gave assistance) when the front desk clerk notified of my reservation not available in their computer system. It seems there is a partnership disconnect with Motel6 and Orbitz. I had no other option than to ask them if they had an available non-smoking room for 2 nights. Fortunately they were not booked. It also stayed within my budget. However, what about if they booked? I had planned to go to Sesame Place and SeaWorld. Very DISAPPOINTING and UNPROFESSIONAL!

Generally good for the price point, no major complaints. Noticed a cockroach about an hour before checking out. Probably entered through a tiny gap in the main door.

Quite the average Motel, no complaints for the price range. Just needed a reasonably clean and quiet room to stay overnight. The staff was courteous and quick. Although found a singular roach in the room on the last day about one hour before check-out.

How Low Can You Go

Not sure what other Motel 6's look like but this was a deplorable property. Not the Motel 6 of my childhood. Front desk staff was nice enough but the building, elevator, stairwell were disgusting. Room was what appeared clean but it was hard to get through the rest of it. We received a full refund and moved to another hotel.

Place is good for the price they offer. I didn’t spend a lot of time at the hotel so it was a good place to rest my head. Bathroom towels were crazy small though.
