Upon check-in, our keys did not work and had to go back down and get them rescanned. There were other people in line with the same problem. The wi-fi never worked throughout the trip, despite 3 visits to the front desk to try and rectify the situation. The property sits right next to John Wayne Airport so you hear every plane taking off/landing. Construction started at 5:30am outside of the hotel. The remote control didn't work only to find out that it was missing a battery and a case cover (maintenance DID come and replace this right away). One of the queen beds sunk in the middle (almost as if the box springs were shot). There are NO toiletries provided other than a bar of soap. There was a weird smell in the room that we could never get to go away despite purchasing air freshener and their A/C was not working properly. We used this property as an inexpensive way for us to stay in town for a basketball tournament. After the first night, we decided to eat the cost and drive back home. I had booked the property two days later when the tournament resumed and we immediately canceled our reservation to take something nicer. I've stayed in Motel 6's before in my life and knew it would be a "budget option." But, I never anticipated this many hiccups.

Horrible stay. I was initially put in a room that smelled like someone was chain smoking when the room I booked was supposed to be nonsmoking. Although I was accommodated into another room, there were bugs on the floor, which was so nasty. Lots of homeless people and drug users hanging out around the property. Not very safe

There is an obvious plumbing or sewer issue with this property as upon entering the front doors to check in it smelled like an construction Porta-Potty inside. When asking the front desk who was a real dear, very sweet very inviting and hospitable however her response was a chuckle indicating that this is a problem that's been going on for some time and she's had to get used to it and doesn't have words to explain it. On another note if you're not lucky enough to book a premium room you will be sent to the back building where you can take easement and relieve stress in a beautifully big suite where you will find that the sheets were great, things were kind of clean except for boogers on the walls, tagging from gang members on every piece of furniture, holes in the ceiling, light fixtures coming down, air conditioner that somewhat worked. There was a beautiful pool with jacuzzi at temperature however the jets/ bubbles did not work, the handle was broken. Now I understand this property is an area where it's a little bit difficult for people who have lost their homes due to addictions etc. just understand that it's more than likely that youll find somebody passed out or nodding out on the stairs blocking entry or completely passed out face down in the parking lot. For 2 hours I listened to am man fight outside of my door at 2:30 in the morning
