Told the rooms on the second floor are cleaner and for the ‘good customers’. If this is cleaner I can’t imagine how horrible the first floor must be. The room smells. They handed me a spray air freshener which masks the stink for about 5 minutes. The positives: I think the sheets were clean and the air conditioner worked. The lower price was not worth it.

It’s a Motel 6 not the Ritz

Front desk was very helpful. Had an issue with my card and door. Not sure if the batter in the lock was dying but it had some issues turning the deadbolt. There were high amount of cigarette burns in my blankets and sheets. I even got poked by a broken piece of plastic that was in my bed. There were also no wash cloths. I did have to remind myself that it was a Motel 6 and not the Ritz. I didn’t expect too much coming in. It was a warm 4 walls once the heater kicked in and the bed itself was comfortable.

I think people live here people hanging out outside all night, smoking pot, smoking, cigarettes, people, yelling, and screaming and other rooms up and down the halls. The only thing I could say was the bed was comfortable. We woke up at 3:30 to start getting dressed for our train we had no hot water in our room, the night before my husband went down to get towels because for a double room with four people we only had two towels and one washcloth. They told my husband they had more towels so me and my husband had to share a towel and my friend and her husband had to share a towel , overall experience was horrible. The hallway smelled like cigarette smoke and I know smoking hotel pot smoke just filled the hotel and the entranceway where people were hanging out it made you feel unsafe.
