Five minutes after getting the key to my room, someone was outside trying to get in. I ignored it and within another five minutes, the same people were trying to get in again. This time I opened it and the lady was surprised that I was already assigned the room and apologized. Before I went to sleep, I turned off the AC because of the loud noise it was making. When I woke up a couple hours later, the smell of marijuana was overwhelming. Apparently the previous guest was smoking in the room, so I had to turn the AC on again to flush out the smell.

It’s a motel 6, don’t expect the Hilton. Clean and updated to the standards of motel 6. No sign of critters or crawlers in my room.

The room was not very clean. Dirt behind the door on the floor. Dirt by the air conditioner/heater. An M&m piece on the top blanket (I don't have any m&m's).
I reserved a room with a queen bed because it had a bathtub, however the plug for the bathtub was missing and I had to use a plastic bag to hold the water in.
The host was very nice though, and when I locked myself out of my room almost instantly, she was very helpful.
No refrigerator or microwave in room.

I will start by saying the staff was super friendly and helpful. Everything else was terrible. The property was run down and not in good condition. The night we stayed the hot water system went out for the whole property, so no showers for anyone. Temp outside was in the 30's, so cold shower not really an option. Check out was at 11am, but our room keys quite working at 9am, so while loading the car someone had to hold the foor open constantly. Just not a great place to stay. Again, the staff was very nice, issues with the hotel were not their fault.

For one, we NEVER stay at a Motel 6 but this one had great reviews so we went for it and we were not disappointed. Quiet, convenient, checking was easy and it was close to everything. Even for a one night stay, I would recoomend.

I like the fact that it was quiet the whole time. Staff is dope. No one was sleeping on their Shid even though it was late night. I was a little thrown off by the fact the floor hadn’t been mopped. Other than that, for the price it was fair.

Television did not work. Not enough towels. Avoid this place

This was the most disgusting and horrible motel 6 I’ve ever stayed at. It was very humid due to the rain and they left the AC on at 60 so everything in the room was wet from condensation. The whole floor was wet everywhere and made my white socks black on the bottom from walking on it. The room never dried during the whole three days we were there. There was dead bugs on the floor of our room like some kind of beetle and there where gross stains on the edge of the bathtub the color of blood or rust or something. We had to use our towels on the wet floor so we only had one bath towel. I waited for housekeeping to come by to clean but they never did. I should have requested them to come with how dirty it was. Besides the hotel being disgusting, the area is bad too. We were in the area for a wedding so we came back to the hotel around midnight in an Uber. My husband got out first and it took me a little longer to grab my stuff so I was about 20 feet behind my husband walking to the room. A man pulls his car up to me and asks if I’m staying at this motel. I ask why and then my husband turns around to see who I’m talking to. The guy says “are y’all together?” My husband says yeah and the guy looks me up and down and says “are you trying to make extra money?” I said no and hurried in with my husband then locked all the doors. I literally was trying to be solicited as a lady of the night! This area is not safe. I will NEVER come back. This makes me never want to stay at a motel 6.

The staff when we checked in was so amazing and helpful. However our room didn’t have enough towels for the 4 of us and when we called the next day about it, the staff member, ( a different one) made a big fuss about the towels we should have had. Found roaches in the bathroom and shower looked bad

Management grumpy, even the manager would walk their dog and poop everywhere around the pool courtyard area obviously they don't pick it up or stop others from using the courtyard as a doggie restroom not to mention cigarette butts everywhere lots and lots of cigarette butts and poop. Much better stay even though slightly more expensive at the motel 6 just north of there at 1701 I-35. Much cleaner, very friendly staff and management. They seem very happy to help in any way they can to make your stay as pleasant as possible.

My problem was the address given for my gps. The confirmation was for a completely different address. After a half hour of driving around through construction I finally found it. Also the phone number was for travelosity not the hotel.
The property itself is fine and a value for the money.

I was concerned from the moment I opened the door of my room, the smell of not-so-clean air, bed sheets with someone else's hair, the bathtub paint peeling, and the bathroom door bottom damaged. I did not enjoy my stay.

Not clean, shower does not have strong stream, just dripping. Unsafe vibe. Non-smoking room smells strong smoke odor. Staff is helpful.

The stay was convenient but I wanted a non smoking room they gave me a room that definitely smelt like smoke and had ash marks in shower. I wouldn't stay again but the price was good for the quality of the room.
