Worst motel ever
Worst motel I’ve ever stayed in. Very scary part of town. The pool covered with tarp in August. Charged $50 deposit after paying for room online. Only 1 pillow on 2 full beds. The air conditioning hardly worked. Bathroom door wouldn’t even close. Shower and tub too dirty and rusty to use. TV would not turn off. I could go on but you get the idea, find another place to stay!

Front Desk need to be trained on how to use vender
The only bad thing about this stay is that I was charged when I got there after paying on the app and when trying to explain this to the front desk person she wasn’t trying to hear me.

Scared customer
I booked two rooms, one is for my Aunt who is 64 years old. She got so horrified when some started knocking on her door at around 12 midnight until 2:30 am three different persons! They also knocked on the window. She take a peek and saw “a scary man” she described she called the front desk but the lady said she did not see anyone thru the cctv but she called the police.

Just wow!
My family booked 2 rooms one for my Aunt who experienced a terrible night. It’s a good thing she and her fiance were together or else she may have had a heart attack. Someone at her door was knocking and also the windows. When she saw a guy wearing black around 11;00pm and then another guy knocked around 1&2:00am! When she called the frontdesk the lady said just don’t open the door. And when I confirmed with her around 3:00am she said she did not see anyone at their cctv.

Extremely dirty smelly place. Looks like a homeless shelter. I walked in and out of the room. And of course they kept my money.

When I reached room around 7.30 pm, they said room is yet to clean and will take one hour at least. But ideally room check-in should be at 3 pm.I went to shopping and also finished dinner instead of waiting at lobby. When I back around 9.30 pm, the room lock was not opening and they called technician and given the room around 10.50 pm. The room condition is very bad, lot of cockroaches in the room and bathroom was very dirty

This place is a dump. The room was gross. Paint peeling from the walls. It smelled like smoke. There was NO HOT WATER!!! Not a good place to stay even for the price. Awful experience.

Don’t stay here!!!
I spent 3 months traveling across the country couple years ago. I stayed at a few Motel 6 and they were all fine places. This was not the case at this Motel 6! Upon seeing it on the street the Motel 6 sign was decrepit, the pool had a tarp over it as if it was winter(it’s August!). The check in was exceedingly slow. I found later when I got an alert from Citi bank that a charge of $69.47 was made by the front desk clerk tho had already paid thru Hotels.com. Went back to the office in evening and night person said the earlier clerk had credited it! HE NEVER TOLD ME WHAT HE HAD DONE! Also of course I haven’t seen the credit yet! I have filed a dispute with Citi. Also the clerk asked for a $50 deposit. A reputable hotel does not do that!! Of course I haven’t seen that credit either! The room: oh boy! It was clean however it had nothing in it! A large bed with two tiny pillows, one small kitchen type chair, no chest of drawers, no hangers, and no ice bucket! And the tv was a mess! A very helpful woman came by to work on it but the fix did not last long no matter what I did. In sum a perfect room for monk! I would suggest Hotel.com STOP listing this place!! The only good thing(and why I chose it) is that it is walking distance to Olde Towne and downtown restaurants. But while there I noticed others nearby that gave the appearance of a MUCH BETTER establishment!
