The building is old, furniture just as old and chipped edges. Door to outside, not airtight around frame. Funny antiseptic smell when you first walk in. Bed was not very comfortable, springs were very loud. Bathroom was clean.

The staff was helpful, the room was clean, but the walls were paper thin and we could hear our neighbors banging away all night long.

It was a ok but the ice machine was broke and there's no room service if you stay more than one night

Several of the television channels offered frozen screens. The mirror fell off the wall almost hitting my wife's head. The entrance to the Motel is not clearly marked. Only cold water is available for washing or showering.

Stay anywhere else but here. The room smelled of smoke the blankets had weird black stains bed was extremely uncomfortable and the room was dirty. There was yelling and shouting throughout the night you can clearly hear all the roads on the interstate and everything that's happening in the room next to you and below you. There was used condoms in the parking lot, definitely seems like a place people go to use drugs. It's the worst hotel or motel I've ever stayed in.

I will not stay here again. There were groups of young men hanging out in several places. Enough to make an old lady with a cane very nervous. The mattress was one of the worst i have ever had the misfortune to try to sleep on. Not a good experience at all

There were bugs crawling around the floor and the bed was worn out

I have stayed in a lot of motel 6 and this one has been the dirtiest one I have stayed in, a lot of roaches will appear in the night after you turn off the lights… It’s incredible that this motel is located in the U.S and not being shut down already

Don’t like it at all

This place is so scary to stay in you should seriously consider taking it off the site. The people who work there will come into your room if they think you’re not there. The housekeepers don’t have uniforms on and they look like tweakers. I had my apple headphone stolen and I was too scared to go looking for it. Half the people there live in this place. Lock everything up if you stay here.
1.0
Keep driving. This place is awful. Trash outside rooms, freeway on-ramp right outside the paper thin walls. You will not get rest. You will not feel safe.

Pretty much a brothel from what I could tell, really bad fly problem, rooms were pretty dirty, sheets and towels were at least clean

I immediately checked everything in the room, like i do. Then i saw what i thought was two slight bed bug marks. I sayed two nights and the morning i letf i noticed FOUR more tracks, good size ones. I also saw some kind of bug embedded in my bathmatt. I couldn't even rip it out. I was able to crunch it up a bit with my nails and couldn't get it out! If it was a bed bug, it was HUGE! I EVEN TOOK A PICTURE OF MY PILLOW CASE! GROSS

Terrible. Sketchy people staying there and the room was filthy and disgusting! Did not stay went to office and said no way am I staying here. I paid in full up front and am waiting for the refund to show on my card. Not safe!

The room I was given had a giant puddle of water on the floor and a huge fish hook lying on the floor as well. Very small shower.
2.0
The staff were great, but I was immediately off put by being right next to the freeway and having a room on the first floor right next to it. There was an off smell right as I entered the room. The room was clean but definitely showed signs of wear from many years of use. Finally, I had several people arrive in the middle of the night blaring loud music, ensuring that I would not get a good night's sleep. I use Motel 6 often and my overall eval of this one is below average. I wouldn't stay here again.
1.0
It was a horrible experience. The neighbors fought all night and all day. They allowed their dogs to bark all throughout the day and night. The room was outdated and extremely dirty. There was poop on the bathroom wall. The phone didn’t work. They didn’t ask if you wanted or needed towels. They allowed people to park everywhere and it was hard to get out of the parking lot.
3.0
Pricing not to bad

The entrance to this property is hidden. I can't even remember how many turns I had to take through the residential area that this motel is in.
The room was clean enough. There was a permanent stain in the toilet. The very lowest part of the corner of the door, the part on the side that has the lock, had what looked like a chewed-off part that let the cold air in. I was in room 261. The bed was quite comfy, the water was hot and it was nice and warm.
