Good Stay for working trave at an Affordable Value

I travel to Alexandria frequently for work & stay at the Motel 6-Studio 6 on McArthur Drive. Rooms are spacious, clean & sanitized. It gives off cozy vibes like an extended-stay home away from home on an affordable budget. Can't beat the price! Parking lot has lots of lights & security cameras. It's easier to see your vehicle & you feel safe during your stay. The managers & staff arewell approachable, people-oriented, children-friendly & are always available to help you address your concerns. I enjoy those random conversations over hot coffee. Located close to everything...convenient stores, shopping, restaurants, hospitals, dental offices & the like. On those long tired days, when you just don't feel like dining-out, you can order in from the menu provided in your room.

Never again

1st room: bed wasn’t made, room hadn’t been cleaned 2nd room: filthy 3rd room: BLOOD stains on the pillows! Our only other option was to sleep in our car. So we slept in our clothes on top of the blankets and used the towels that we had to go get(none in the room) as a pillow. The ONLY good thing was that the staff refunded us our money for the 4 nights we had originally reserved.

Was it black mold or severely dirty?

Frequent Guest at Motel 6

Traveling for work, I find myself back in Alexandria, Louisiana. It's good to know you can stay in a hotel where you are recognized, well-known by staff, & feel safe around familiar faces. This is how I feel staying at Motel 6.

Burn it down to start over

The place needs to burn down to the ground honestly and then scrape and rebuild something nice in this place. Considering the electrical issues that were in my room, it’s probably not gonna be long before it happens anyway. Hairballs in every corner. Feces on the bed covers Pillows were so old that they were yellow and dingy. The door didn’t lock. Electrical socket in the bathroom didn’t work. The light in the toilet and tub area didn’t work. The toilet wouldn’t flush the bathroom sink wouldn’t drain. The towels had holes in them. They were so old. The floors had been mopped in about a month. I’m gonna stop right there, but don’t ffhdking stay here.
