The room was definitely worn down, but it is a Motel 6. I was suprised that neither a microwave nor mini fridge was in the room. Additionally, the beds are uncomfortable. I am most happy with the customer service though. I called before our reservation and was pleased to learn that early check in is an option. I called a couple of other times, and my call was answered quickly, with a friendly voice on the other line. When we did arrive, check in was super easy. The person behind the counter was also kind and friendly. He geniunely cared about our happiness with the room. Lastly, I very much enjoyed the water pressure in the shower.

I had reserve two rooms and the cleanliness of them were awful. The towels were dingy. The vents were dusty. There was no toilet paper in one of the rooms. The other room had burn marks underneath the TV stand blood on the light fixtures, and there was like spills visible on the walls, and the floor had not been mopped, and a dirty old. Nasty towel was left on the table. This was overall the worst Motel 6 I’ve ever been to.
