Last time here

I have stayed here previous times and had no issues however this time was horrible. For a non-smoking room I could smell nothing but cigarettes, the bathroom was filthy, the sheets looked as if they were never changed.

Do not ever stay here!

Do not stay here ever! This is absolutely the worst place we have ever stayed. Sleeping in your car at a rest stop would be a better choice and 100% safer. As I type this out - we are listening through the thin walls, have one eye on our car, and listening to mariachi music playing loudly. I cannot believe this place is even open - and cannot believe motel 6 finds this acceptable. The photos speak for themselves, but sadly they only allow 8. If we weren’t so tired we would have left. It’s simply just gross - dirty, moldy, everything is broken, burnt outlets - I could go on! The only thing I can say is this place needs a bull dozer!

Motel 6

Staying here doesn't feel like your just sleeping in a motel room. Its like an extended-stay, your home away from home, sort to speak. Rooms have a cozy feel & are very clean & tidy. Close parking to your room always available & the area is well lit. Staff & management show genuine concern about their guests comfort & safety.

My Stay at Motel 6

Pleasant stay. Friendly atmosphere. Economical & clean rooms. They don't offer room service but you are provided with a menu of places that deliver food to your room. The coffeevis always hot which is great on cool & cold days. Hassle-free experience every time.
