They place was spotless but the only problem I had was the the cable on the tv wasn’t working as it would be static and the sound wasn’t working so I had to change to my Xbox. And the WiFi would go out at random times and I had to constantly reconnect my game.but other than that everything was amazing and the staff was nice

My week long stay was great. Clean, well managed property with good wifi, hot water, coffee in the lobby. All staff were friendly and courteous from the late night clerk checking me it, the day desk clerk, and the heloful and thorough housekeeping gentleman.

When we first arrived there was no running water. We were also told that we had to check in with the front desk because there was an issue, but they wouldn't clarify what it was. It turns out that they confused my reservation with another and had us in the wrong room for the wrong days. After I was finally able to sort that out, there was no adjustment of the wrong room. The room was moderately clean but showed serious signs of deterioration. The maintenance and housekeeping staff were very friendly and helpful.

The room was not clean. The bathroom was definitely not cleaned and restock of toilet paper , the handle fornthe shower came off , there was loose hair strands all in the tub, a dirty shower curtain and a dirty, filthy bathroom door my wife and i went and bought cleaning products to clean the bathroom and spary all door knobs down tried cleaning the door with scrubbing bubbles it didn't help at all, i didn't sleep a wink this weekend. I won't be staying at any motel 6 and won't recommend that anyone else does either. The onlt good thing this place has going for its self is that its located near alot of restaurants and shops

The manager was awesome. Very friendly. Answered the phone when we called. Location was convient. However, the bathtub was nasty, the water pressure nonexistent, and constant parties all hours of the night in the next room...which is really not the owners fault. Housekeeping was the housekeeper picking up the garbage but not replacing toilet paper or sweeping the floor. So, ive been in worse and it was decent for the cost.

$100 Deposit Required

There was a $100 deposit required on check in, which was a surprise to me. The room was clean and the full size refrigerator was just perfect since I bring all my own food when I travel. I would happily stay here again.
