Oldest and dirties room for a “branded” motel I’ve stayed in over the past decade. Will never stay at a Motel 6 again after seeing this one, especially for the price just over $100

Check in lady was super nice! The gentleman after was lazy and rude. I asked for one extra pillow and he said he didn’t have one. He told me to flag down room service and ask for one. I told him no, to call them and have them bring me one. That was the most ridiculous thing ever!! The room was decently clean. Water in the shower kept running, hair glob in the drain, AC made a horrible noise all day/night, and the sink had a foul smell from it. Also little wanna be couch was dirty and tv barely had signal. I’ll spend the extra money next time and never stay at a Motel 6 again.

Stayed here for a concert nearby and for the price, it was just what we needed. The bed wasn't the most comfortable but it did it's job. Check-in was easy and the location was near food and gas. Would definitely stay here again in the future.

Liked: Staff & service
The parking area was okay, it’s well lit but the around it is a fast food and cannabis dispensary so do the math. The room temp was cold as the AC is working. Little to no amenities considering this is a budget hotel. The staff are all very nice and friendly. They let me check in a bit early after I asked if it’s okay. I stayed here cause of Paul McCartney Got Back 2025 Tour.
