Window air that did not work well and is extremely loud while running.
1st we were put into a roo. That the beds were not made nor room cleaned.
the room had paint peeling off the ceiling, shower dripped all night, no tissue in the room, no shampoo, but they gave me conditioner. There toilets barely function, towels are cheap and thin. The only two things that were ok was the water was hot (ish) and the bed was ok - but the pillows were the smallest pillows I have ever seen.
There was hair, cricket and other bugs in the bathroom.. The bedspread on one bed was dirty and had cigarettes burns in it. Front desk was told about it but didn't seem concerned.
Room was dirty, first room we checked into had other belongings in it, no one was at the front desk when needed something, tv wasn’t working correctly, tv remote missing, everything was full of flies outside door
The bed was comfortable. There was no food service. They did provide coffee in the morning but every time we went it was empty and there is no coffee pot in the room so that was very disappointing
Great location. Over priced. I booked a king but they gave me 2 queens, no other rooms available to switch it. The room had a lot of deferred maintenance.
The room had cockroaches, burn holes in the blankets, and was extremely dirty. We approached the front desk manager about these issues and what was his response?
"Cockroaches are a part of nature." They refused to give a full or even partial refund. Do not stay here. If you have no other options, sleep in your vehicle.

The outlet in the bathroom didn't work at all and we got the room to get ready for a wedding reception. There was a partially smoked weed blunt hanging out in the hallway outside our room that smelt really bad. We had two pillows that were about half the size of normal pillows asked for more and they didn't have pillowcases. At least the AC worked in the room
I frequently choose Motel 6 when traveling with my pet: they are generally a good value for just a quick overnight stay. The Motel 6 in Marshalltown was the first Motel 6 I’ve patronized to require a cash fee for my pet beyond a deposit. No one was at the front desk when I arrived or dropped by to check out—just a number to call. After a wait of not a few minutes, a young lady arrived to check us in. She was nice and tried to be helpful, but someone had to walk her through the check-in process over the phone. If I’m going to pay extra for my pet, I will choose another hotel that provides amenities and front desk service next time I visit Marshalltown. The room itself was fine, though the beds were less comfortable than most.
