We were on the second floor and had to use the fire stairwell because the elevator was not working. The halls and room stunk. The staff was the only good thing about this place. We didnt sleep well because if you moved on the bed you felt like it would fall apart. We slipped and slided in the shower.

7541 Nates Rd, Columbia, SC, 29223 Total nonsense, this hotel. Doesn’t even look like the pictures shown on website. Elevator not working “for a long minute” per male front desk attendant who checked me in. Serious ADA complaint! Door not locked to stairway you have to WALK UP to your room, do not come here if you have a disability Pool closed in July with weeds growing out of pool cover at steps. Don’t know what Motel 6 you copied pictures from, but they certainly are not of this place. My receipt said I had to pay $2 fee, but front desk guy told me I had to pay $20 cash deposit. What hotel makes you pay that! The bed sounds like bed springs from the the 80s. My room selection said a queen bed, it’s a double. Seriously, the only hotel I didn’t want to take a shower in my bare feet and not until I left. The male front desk attendant, don’t know who or how he was trained tried to get me to pay again! I told him I had already paid, but it took him quite awhile before he was able to see my reservation. I finally got to my room, rust on light fixtures. Horrible squeaky bed. No way to adjust cold in the room, thermostat wasn’t even visible. I had to sleep with my jacket on zipped up it was so cold in the room. Toilet was clogged after 1st use - wouldn’t even flush. Nothing to stop it up! This is located near Ft. Jackson, so don’t know if it is a 1 hr motel or what or tourist TRAP. A frickin joke!!! My review is so long, it won’t let me type anymore. DO NOT STAY HERE!

Worst hotel stay of my life

Staff not at desk at check in and not courteous. Room smelled damp and musty. Refuses not work and freezer had a puddle of water. No shower curtain. Towels were very damp. Called number posted in lobby but the lady claimed not to know Motel 6 after putting me on extended hold twice. Called M6 service line and was treated very professionally. Formal complaint filed and one night refund expected. Promise to switch rooms for my 2nd night. When I returned Fri. afternoon to switch rooms, the General Manager was not friendly or courteous. when I got my belongings from the original room, the refrigerator was gone but there were 2 puddles of water on the floor. New room was much better but w/o a refrigerator. I got very little sleep that night though due to other guests being very loud inside and outside. Dogs barked and kids screamed. All this noise continued most of the night.
