check in was novel, had to sign that would not bring someone not registered into room. I guess no local "walkers" But no shampoo in bath, really? Noisy, kind of a not so nice neighborhood

Lots of pets in rooms. Room was re novated and pretty nice. Parking lot is spacious. Unfortunately my neighbor played loud music all night until 6 am, then it was off for 1-1/2 hours until it went back on. I barely slept.

Arrived to Motel 6, and the lobby was closed for over 30 min. There was one person standing in line. Once the solo staff member returned to the lobby, he proceeding to help the gentlemen standing in line. Staff handing this gentlemen some forms and the gentlemen left the window to return to his car. I was next in line and proceeded to the window. The Staff member said, I can’t help you until the gentlemen comes back so if you don’t mind waiting. I said sure. The gentlemen returned and was assisted and he left to his assigned room. I then went back up to the window and began my check-in process. I too was handed forms to fill out which included my vehicle information. I left the window to retrieve the info and then returned back to the window. The same Solo Staff told me, I had to wait in line and the he was helping another person and because I left, it was no longer my turn to be served. I was PERPLEXED !!! I said to this Staff member, I said wait a minute, you allowed the guy standing in front of me, the opportunity to return to the window, after leaving, without losing his place in line so, what’s the deal. This Staff member huffed and puffed and damn near blew my house down! I have NEVER received such piss poor hospitality that was exceedingly unprofessional and down right RUDE. A person standing behind me was watching all this unfold and said “ I never leave reviews but I’m definitely leaving one after seeing how you were treated”!
