Pleasant stay

I recently stayed at Motel 6 and had a positive experience. The evening clerk was very helpful, making check-in a breeze. The rooms were clean and easily accessible, which was a big plus. Another great aspect was the free parking available, and it was convenient to have a pool on-site for relaxation. Overall, I had a comfortable and enjoyable stay at Motel 6.

Since floor had no carpet, it needs to be mopped. Just getting into the tub, it was black from my feet getting wet. Killed 3 roaches & 1 got away. So needs fumigating. Had to ask for batteries for the remote, which worked the first night, but not the next. Staff was friendly & willing to help.

The motel facilities have seen far better days. Ice machine was there but I wouldnt use it. No room housekeeping over a four night stay and 1 of 2 bath towels provided was in the rack but really visibly dirty. The bed however was clean and comfortable. Bugs seen were typical of Texas.

I left this exact review on google maps, it goes as follows. I took off a star for every roach I killed, and another for the overall cleanliness of the property. Sure you get what you pay for, but if you spend anything over $69 bucks a night here, you had better be desperate. Everything in the rooms repair seemed to be patch work, and make sure again, you bring roach spray. Pro: The staff was friendly and accommodating. I checked in rather late, and there were no towels in the room, and they did not hesitate to bring some to me. I accidentally locked myself out of my room and they were kind enough to make me a new key no problem. Con: the aforementioned roaches. Also the towels they gave me. One seemed to have a makeup stain, luckily I didn't need to use it but as a floor towel. The location is a pain, if you need to go to a store finding the correct exit is like two exits down from anything, provided the exit is open. Do in summation, invest more into the employees and the maintenance of the property.

All i can say is terrible stay! I could not hurry fast to get mine and my kids out we moved to the next motel 6 up st at i loved the stay! First off this motel is not organized. I booked 2 rooms and checked in at 2pm. I received my keys and went to check both rooms out turned on tvs and closed curtain now mind you im from austin moving to kyle but born in san marcos so im very familiar with area and local. But i left to visit family down st and when i get back my key does not work come to find out they double booked my room and didnt know why.. ok so 45 mins later they tell me they are booked well duh i booked 2 rooms and thank god i didnt leave bags in rooms cause then i would of just lost it! They have people living on property smells like smoke in alot of rooms not weed but cigarettes ew! The lady that works first shift seems like she has no clue what she is doing how do you double book a room make it make since so they put me in room 205 smelled way better thanks to the guy he called his manager and got it fixed after 45mins later i spent most of my stay trying to get the rooms figured out no rest just stressed so i was glad to get out of there and go up the st where it was peaceful and not everyone hanging out looking like they want to rob you or kill you something at that motel 6 is just not right keep kids away!! Worst experience ever and i love motel 6! Just not that one!
