We needed a night’s sleep and nothing more so stayed here based on recent positive experiences at other Motel 6 locations. There were several people loitering in the parking lot and the lock on the side door wasn’t working so I’m glad my husband was with me. The room was fine and to be expected for the price but the curtains were completely sheer. Finally the AC was insanely loud and the mattress was older so sleep was hard to come by. Spend a few more dollars elsewhere.

What i liked, it was a few doors down from Perkins Family Restaurant. What we didn't like. I would not recommend this motel to anyone. The lobby & the room, was not at all like the pictures online. Everything in the room needed to be replaced or updated. It was tired.Especially the toilet seat, which had gouges in it. We had to put a towel to stand on in the tub, due to the stains, etc.#204. The bed skirt was oversized & a trip hazard. The people above us were noisy. We left at 6am, we had a poor night's sleep. We didn't feel comfortable staying any longer, than we had to.

This property is no longer even a real motel. There is no one at the front desk and they don't answer the phone they say to pick up & call. When I finally got help, the room had flies all over it. The building is mostly occupied by people who do not appear to be hotel guests - it is housing locals from the community. When I returned to my room, my key card would no longer open the door and I could not access my room or belongings. Nobody was at the desk and no one answered the phone to help. Constant noise above my room throughout the night made it almost impossible to sleep. Although I could not get a refund, I did not stay at the property the second night because the experience did not feel entirely safe. This was the worst motel experience of my life. Expedia should remove this property from their website immediately.

We get what we pay for

We needed an inexpensive place to stay and we got what we paid for. Room was very clean. Staff was friendly. Bed was fine. Computer issues delayed our check-in and our keys. We could have used a small bar of soap with our sink. Fan in bathroom was noisy, toilet seat had gouges and water pressure was a bit much. But again, we get what we pay for. We can't remember whether or not there was morning coffee but we didn't see any.
