We needed a night’s sleep and nothing more so stayed here based on recent positive experiences at other Motel 6 locations. There were several people loitering in the parking lot and the lock on the side door wasn’t working so I’m glad my husband was with me. The room was fine and to be expected for the price but the curtains were completely sheer. Finally the AC was insanely loud and the mattress was older so sleep was hard to come by. Spend a few more dollars elsewhere.

We get what we pay for

We needed an inexpensive place to stay and we got what we paid for. Room was very clean. Staff was friendly. Bed was fine. Computer issues delayed our check-in and our keys. We could have used a small bar of soap with our sink. Fan in bathroom was noisy, toilet seat had gouges and water pressure was a bit much. But again, we get what we pay for. We can't remember whether or not there was morning coffee but we didn't see any.

Staff couldn’t (or wouldn’t) accommodate my needs and/ or concerns. I was certain I booked a room with microwave and refrigerator. When I checked in, there were not any rooms available with those items. Heater didn't work in room. There was not s great effort to provide additional blankets when requested. Ice machine did not work. Microwave oven in lobby did not work it would spark and smoke a few seconds after I attempted to pop popcorn. Staff was agitated when I expressed my concerns and inconvenience—- on the evening of my 2nd nights stay I was basically told they could refund my money and I could find another place to stay—- this was like about 5:30-6pm or so. I already had a long day, was tired additionally didn’t know if or where I’d find another hotel available let alone the costs… so I just stayed the second night…

Good customer service, but the room not so good.

The desk clerk was very good. However it was in the room where there were problems. When I turned on the light switch after entering the room, no light came on. The light that was to come on, had been turned off, so I turned it back on. Next the toilet seat was clean, but the toilet seat needs to be replaced because it has missing paint. Finally, the pillows were not King sized for the King sized bed. They were also very flat. I needed to sleep on two pillows to get the sleeping height I needed. The room and everything else was clean and tidy. One tip I learned from working the front desk in a hotel during the summer is: when the TV is turned on by a customer, always have the TV remote set to Guide. I was able to watch TV, but it took me a while to figure out it out. or Leave directions in the desk drawer in a plastic paper folder, or have it laminated. The part that concerned me the most is that every time I moved on the bed, (North Side closest to the window) the light next to it flickered. I noticed the cord for it was either under the bed frame. I tried to get the light's cord from underneath the bed frame, but couldn't do it because it was too heavy for me to lift. You need two people. Also, the light on the other side of the bed, didn't work even though there was a light bulb in it.
