Very good

Need to work on late night communication during checkin
very difficult to understand what the check in girl was saying . It was after midnight so they were using a remote system.
Easy check in through this app. Room was outdated, small, barely any channels on the tv. Only thing they offered for breakfast was coffee. If you are just looking to sleep and take a shower this was the place.

Overall, the room was spacious, clean and didn't have any odors. The room had a TV but no signals for basic channels or cable. No shampoo was offered in the shower. The pillow was kind of flat. Otherwise, the stay was OK.
They need to hire more qualified maintenance workers. Installed a door on bathroom with a1” gap at top , does not fit properly. All the towel racks are installed crooked. Obviously can’t even eye it straight. Most repairs are done poorly. For the price of the room, they could do abetted job of fixing the problems.
We stay at this motel 6 every time we are in the area. We have never had an issue. The rooms are clean beds are comfortable staff is usually nice. We had a big group of people stay at this hotel. After dinner we sat outside and all sat around quietly talking. We were not loud and every person with us was in the surrounding rooms. It was 9pm so at 10 we would have all went in on our own. The front desk lady came out and literally told us it’s time to go to bed that we can’t do this. It was odd because every year we all stay there and every year we do the same thing
I swore I would never stay at a Motel 6 again after my last experience but I took a chance. Now I know to stay away for good. I chose it based on price but it’s not worth it. The rooms smell funky and the bed is hard as a rock. There were 4 loud guys next to me drinking beer and having a good old time well into the evening. It’s not like it was super cheap either at nearly $400 for tow nights. Very disappointed.

Very clean and well kept up Motel 6. It’s very basic but clean. Could have used more lighting in the parking lot near my room in the back. Vending machine was broken. Unfortunately my room was in front of the stairs which got noisy in the evening until about midnight.
