The room is identified as a non-smoking room, but not only dis I smell smoke heavily in the room and bathroom, but I found cigarette ash in the bathroom. Other than this problem, it is a basic cheap motel room. Nothing special, no refrigerator. I do appreciate the pet policy.

The staff at front desk was professional and honest. The AC was down and informed us we would be fully refunded if we didn’t want to stay However if we did check in knowing the AC was nonfunctional we had to pay. No hot water in shower so we were reimbursed $25. Plenty of parking. Plenty of pot smoking

We paid for non-smoking, entered the room and it smelled horrible. The walls were yellow from the smoke, the bathroom walls were filthy and the shower looked like it had not been cleaned in weeks. Went to office and requested another room, which we received, second room didn’t smell and was cleaner, bed was horrible, mattress was literally a rollaway on a platform! Motel 6, please don’t leave the light on for my family!

The AC was out in every until and we were not told until we got there, and it was too late to book with any other hotel due to the holiday. Room was filthy. Food was left in the refrigerator from last occupants. Cable on the TV was not working. Dryer was out of service. There was no ICE ready in the ICE machine. Pool was also filthy. I have stayed at this motel multiple times and this was my first bad experience there. Usually clean and convenient. Alot of unsatisfied customers this time. I really love this location and I hope they do better.

I arrived for a late night check-in around midnight. Greeted the front desk attendant with a friendly hello. He rudely asked for my ID and license plate number. His demeanor to me was almost as if I was bothering him. He finished the check-in process and I went to my room. I noticed that the shower was still dirty along with the shower curtains. There was a red residue on the shower curtains, almost like blood. The shower curtains do not keep the water inside the shower so when I was finished with my shower, I stepped out to a puddle of water on the floor. An extra towel too luckily I had an extra towel to soak up all of the water. Location did have convenient parking.

Horrible experience

First let me say My husband never takes a vacations. He finally took one to go enjoy the beach to have rest and relaxation well first the hotel room that he got it stunk like cigarettes and everything was broken, including the air conditioning He has a hard time breathing as it is then there was no screen on the window so he couldn’t leave the window open to go enjoy his day and get the cigarette smell out Second there was no air conditioning and when he asked to switch rooms, they told him no that none of the air conditioners work they were very rude. I wanted to speak to a manager to get some of my money back to get out of that place and get a better hotel but they were no help This was such a horrible trip and a horrible experience for my husband. This was a gift to him that I gave him. I was so sad and angry when he told me everything and video called me to show me I told him that I would call and asked to speak to a manager, and he said he already did that. They were no help and very rude I’m highly disappointed in motel six I will never stay here nor will I refer or bring my family here. I don’t have pictures to post it right now because I’m at work but when I get off, I’m gonna see if I can edit this. I’m angry as I’m writing this right now. I don’t want you guys to be disappointed so don’t waste your money spend a little bit more and find somewhere nicer.
