Freeway is loud. The building shakes when people are going up and down the stairs; it feels like an earthquake. Scary. The floors had not been swepted or mopped. I tried wiping up drops of water and the floor was black; its was disgusting. Microwave and frig had not been cleaned. Bed is uncomfortable. Only two places to hang two towels.

Terrible customer service! The receptionist was rude and aggressive! I did not recommended this Motel 6 at all! I booked a room online and when we get there we were not allowed to park on the hotel premises because we had a truck and a car trailer. Fortunately, Hotels.com was able to help us to get the refund. The refund is on process right now.

The room smelled, we found a roach in the bathroom, the television did not work and kept making a popping sound all night that kept waking us up. The room overall had a neglected look.

Worst experience I’ve ever had in any hotel or motel. We walked into room #211 and were immediately hit with an overwhelming bleach odor—so strong we nearly passed out. It was absolutely unbearable. I went to speak with the front desk clerk, and his response was, “Nothing I can do. If you don’t like it, you can leave.” I was shocked by the complete lack of professionalism or concern. We ended up spending $20 on air fresheners, and it still took nearly two hours before the smell faded enough to tolerate. After that, we discovered multiple hairs all over the sink. Absolutely disgusting. We will never stay at a Motel 6 again, and we’ll make sure to share this experience with everyone we know.
