It was in better condition than most of the Motel 6 I’ve stayed in. The building wasn’t in the best shape but the room was acceptable. It was very cold even with the heater on. But the price was right through Expedia.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The staff is very kind. The only issue I have every time is that they half clean the rooms. If it looks clean they’ll leave it as is. It’s always hair left in the shower, sink and on the floor. The sheets aren’t changed all the time,it looks clean but will have hair in the sheets. The bottom of the toilet doesn’t get clean. Used towels get folded and put back. Used towels still were still hung up behind the door. Used soap was still in the shower. I stay here a few days out the week because I travel for work. It’s very decent for the price of your booking online. It’s better than Super 8
