Motel 6

This was absolutely the worst hotel I’ve ever stayed in. The floor had built up crude on it, I mean crude like chunks of mud or food just mopped and mopped over again and again. The bedspreads were the same; it looked just like someone walked all across them, with hard spots of who knows what. The pillows had sweat and blood stains that showed through the pillow cases. I took them to the girl at the front desk, asked her to give me replacements. She claimed «They don’t give me pillows.» and handed me a whole new set of sheets. The sheets and the bedspread had many cigarette burn holes. Since we had two rooms I took a better pillow from the other room. I have videos but don’t know how to upload them on here. Unfortunately my co-​traveler didn’t have enough distain to leave, he was paying for the hotels on a long truck drive, and it was late at night to look elsewhere. Oh well, live and learn. If I ever find something like this again I won’t care about anything but leaving. DO NOT GO HERE, if you have to drive 50 miles away to get better lodging, it will be well worth it. There should be a way to rate this place with a deep negative score.

I recently completed an email review. However, I have to update my take on the WiFi. During my last two stays the WiFi sucked. I initially rated the WiFi ⁹⁄₁₀ based on previous visits. Now it is horribly slow. I also had trouble maintaining a connection. I frequent this hotel because it’s cheap and close to work. There is nothing else to recommend it without the great WiF. It used to have a great 10MBs connection. It seems they have switched to a slower ISP. I’ve been getting about 1MBs during my last two stays.

The positive is it was cheap and pet friendly (traveling with a dog).
The negative is the room was pretty nasty with cigarette burns in the blanket and the sheets in a nonsmoking room. At least the burn holes didn’t line up so I assume the sheets were changed. Staff was friendly.

Staff was friendly and very nice. Room was cleaned, but may aspects (phone, bedcovers) were old, with cigarette burns in the top coversheet. A nonsmoking room but it smelled strongly of cigarettes, until I turned on the AC/​fan unit and then it smelled like mold plus cigarettes. Bathroom had been cleaned but was not clean (I was glad I brought flip-​flops for my morning shower).
I would stay here again in a pinch, but although the price ($ 72) was cheaper than surrounding hotels, I don’t consider this exactly cheap — I might opt to spend an extra $ 40 to be in a place that feels a bit more cozy.

The staff was very friendly and helpful, which is the main reason I have given this motel 3 stars instead of 2. The room was very clean, but as a previous reviewer stated, it was very barren and the furniture was pretty beat up. The bathroom, albeit clean, was very dirty looking. I had my 8 month old son with me and, although I really wanted to give him a bedtime bath, decided against it as the tub looked badly stained and mildewed.
There was a laundry room/​vending area on the bottom floor that I utilized frequently during my two day stay, and I never had any issues with the internet (which was free– I just had to call the front desk and get the sign in information).

The room itself was fairly spacious, but pretty barren; it certainly made an argument in favor of cookie-​cutter art work as there was none. After I flushed the toilet (I blame housekeeping more than the previous occupants), I looked around. The furniture was all pretty beat up and stained, the bedding was cheap and, like the décor, lifeless.
One of my main issues was the internet. I paid the $ 3 and tried to log on, but with no success. After many failed attempts, I called the front desk. The woman said that happens a lot and it may work later, to which I said that I had a ton of work I had to finish that evening. One star back since she actually offered to refund my stay if I had to find a different hotel; I stayed and went to sleep.
You’re never going to get a lot of frills with a Motel 6, but you do expect a certain standard that this location did not meet.
