I understand it’s a budget Motel 6, but come one. I’ve slept in better conditions than this in Afghanistan. Over all e
Pros:

The lady at the desk was nice around 2:00 pm. Ease of getting to the place off the interstate. Ice machine worked, but said it needs sanitized. Wouldn’t use it for anything other than coolers.

Cons:

The guy at the desk around 6:30 pm or so was rude, pushy, and made it clear my issues caused him more work and he was upset over that. First I could even get into my room! Door lock wouldn’t work. Door didn’t even close all the way. I didn’t like the room condition. Hair ALL over the place, shower dirty, floor NASTY! Like didn’t want to walk around with my shoes off nasty. Sheets had stains! Towels looked like they been used and washed a million times. Mirror missing off wall in 114, which was my second room, cause 130 couldn’t get into. All the same conditions as listed above in room 114 too.

Good cheap place to stay.
Pros:

No carpet. Really clean. Comfy bed. They accepted cats.

Cons:

Nothing really. It was a great Motel 6. This is really minor but only drink vending. No candy machine.

Warning trap house!
Pros:

The price was right.

Cons:

This was the filthiest motel I've ever been in. My expectations weren't very high. The room was cheap and available, and I was in need. The room had spider webs and cob webs hanging from the walls. The bathroom smelled like piss. The television didn't work. The refrigerator door wouldn't stay closed unless you put something against it to hold it shut. The floor was covered in dead bugs. I went to the front desk to see about another room unfortunately the night time desk attendant was asleep and the door was locked. I checked out in the morning and asked to speak with management. Of course I was told there was no one in until Monday. I've been calling repeatedly but I'm still being told no management are avaliable. This motel is nothing more than a trap house. I won't be back.
