First times the charm

Room was basic. No fridge, no microwave. Staff will heat and food up in their microwave if needed. Staff was the best part of my stay. Everyone was great. Thank you, to them all. Kinda noisy from outside my room. It wasn't unbearable, but, still noisy.

Room was not fully cleaned. Two pillows and thin sheets. Bathroom had hair from previous stay. Dead bug on ground. Roach up the wall on my way out the next morning. If you need a spot to lay your head for a few hours you get what you pay for. The staff was very kind though!

It was a convenient stop, a little off the path for amenities, but the property felt safe, staff was pleasant and polite. Nothing high end, but just fine for an overnight stop, a bed and shower, and always a bonus when they allow your pets without having to jump through hoops and pay all sorts of fees.

The Motel was close to my destination, only 7 minutes away. We were surprised to learn about a 20.00 deposit for a trash room fee, didn't know about it until we arrived; luckily I had some cash on me. It was noisy at night, kids playing in the hall way, doors being slammed very loudly. The room was clean and I got the room that I asked for. Will stay here again if I need to.

Hospitality didn’t exist. Had to pay for room plus $20 cash only fee. Ceiling had mold. Shower barely worked plus moldy show curtain. Would never stay there again. Not a safe area.

Disliked: Staff & service

Could be better, could be worse

They were wonderful to take our pets. The shower was great. The customer service was poor and the staff was not friendly at all. We had to ask for tissue paper and turn in our towels and sheets before getting more. We often had to wait until morning to get towels because none were available in the evening.

The staff was pleasant, the property is the worse motel 6 I’ve ever stay in, no refrigerator or microwaves in rooms. Had to ask staff to warm up food, unsanitary conditions inside rooms and bathrooms. The atmosphere as a whole of the motel was very uncomfortable and disgusting and the Oder was unbearable. A new renovation of a upgraded is need ASAP or rebuild the structure that is presentable to customers and more things for guess
