Disliked: Cleanliness
The room was half cleaned. The tub wasn't clean, the bench was filthy and the phone. The soap is slimy when you was your hands. They don't clean the rooms everyday it's every 3 days and if you needmore towels you have to turn in the the towels you have before they give you new ones. We didn't sleep under the cover, we slept on top of the cover and used out own blankets to cover with. No frisge to keep your food and drinks cold.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The bathtub was damaged and filthy-absolutely unusable. We were not given washcloths so I couldn’t wash up in the sink. We asked for the queen bed, and were given a full-which was uncomfortable. The ac condensed all over the floor. I was afraid of slipping. If we had paid for more nights, we would have left and asked for a refund. Do better Motel 6!
