Room was clean quiet and easily accessible. There is a functional mall down the street and many food options for all price ranges. Mostly saw working class people in and out of rooms (construction, healthcare, etc). Didn’t hear traffic or others coming in and out. Parked my car right in front of my door. Only complaint is there were no light bulbs above the bathroom sink. Great stay for a good price.

Only perk to our stay was that they were pet friendly. Grounds were covered in litter. Room was dirty & loud. Pics on Expedia are deceiving. Glad I was only there for a few hours! Never again. Blows my mind it’s even listed on Expedia.

The place is filthy. Front desk attendant is very rude.This place is filled with drug addicts. The remedy for everything is CHANGE UOUR ROOM. Broken refrigerators, broken tvs, and constant Police activity. You can't stay longer than 21 days. Residency issues and squatters.they dafinatly lie about amenities. DONT BRING YOUR FAMILY HERE!! I'm looking for a way to get refunded for a miserable stay.

Sparse feeling but clean, comfortable bed.

The room felt sparse, but it was clean. It looked and smelled newly painted. (There were a couple of paint splatters on the door and the curtains.) The bed had no bedspread or "blanket" but was made neatly and professionally with two cover sheets, which was fine, since it's very warm this time of year. The bed itself was surprisingly comfortable. There was a working air conditioner. The tub/shower in the bathroom was dated and basic, but it functioned fine. The room had some unique retro-modern elements, like a little table with a booth seat on one side,a yellow, maybe Ikea?towel holder,and 3 large mirrors! It may have been in the midst of a slow redecoration process. There was a working TV with a remote that hung kinda high for its size, with a lot of wires hanging underneath. There was a small microwave and fridge, which I didn't use, but I know the fridge was working. The guy at the check-in counter was neither pleasant or unpleasant. He was just there. To be fair, he was probably tired, because he was still there when I checked out.

Employees at check-in desk were rude and uncooperative. They told us they only had one room for us and even after I showed him my receipt for two rooms they said no. They told us it was Expedia’s problem. We went to another hotel. Expedia, by the way, has refused to reimburse us. I won’t work with Expedia or Motel 6 again.

Never happened before

Guess what folks! There are 2 types of toilet seats, one regular and the other elongated. Put the small size on a larger size bowl has you are partially out of kilter! And your flesh is on the cold porcelain!!!
