Don’t Stay Here

I rarely give bad reviews and I use hotels.com a lot. This place is a dump. Beyond bare bones. Dirty. Not well taken care of. Unhelpful staff. Then I came back one night to find the was an electrical fire and the hotel was evacuated. Neither the staff or the owners came to talk to the guests sitting in our cars in the parking lot waiting for answers. I went to a different hotel. When I retrieved my belongings the next morning they didn’t give me a refund or even an apology.

HORRIBLE STAY NEVER AGAIN

Dirty room, spooge on the tv, for staying 2 night, room wasnt touched, no clean towels, bed wasnt made, oh and i had to work the toilet to make it work, finally gave up. Truthfully i want my money back. 200.00 a night was way over rated. No maintenance people or manager to speak with. I called the front desk and they didnt speak hardly any English. Maybe someone who is responsible should work weekends Lastly the security latch was broken, so hows that work out!!! Ill never go to another one of these hotels again. I will be calling to get a refund. Motel 6, DONT LEAVE THE LIGHTS ON SHUT THE DOORS

There is nothing to like about this place. Staff is lazy and rude, no remote for tv but they would rather sit on their lazy backside than help, rooms smell like pot and cigarettes. Do not recommend at all. 0 stars would be more appropriate.

The hotel clearly said it was smoke free. But the two nights we stayed there. Our rooms stunk like Marijuana smoke and cigarette smoke. The addicts who hung out at the entrance made it feel unsafe. Someone tried to come into my room after midnight!.Towels were limited. They were under staffed. Never going back.

Our stay here was fine. It was a bed to sleep in, but other than that, the amenities were still under construction or construction was done poorly. The lighting in the rooms were cheap (SUPER) bright lights that were way too bright. All in all, this hotel was fine, but a classic example of you get what you pay for.
