They require a $50 deposit. For some reason my card wouldn’t go through, and they made me find an ATM at 11pm to get $50 cash. The beds were comfortable, But you can tell they don’t move the mattress and clean the bed base. The shower had long black hairs all over the walls and in the drain. The shower curtain was so moldy, that I took a shower with it open. I did feel safe staying there. It’s not a bad Motel specially for the price I paid…they just need to do better at cleaning!

I’ve stayed at over 20 hotels in the past few months and this place was absolutely disgusting. From the dirty linen to the hair in the shower and the mold on the walls. The smoke alarm started beeping in the middle of the night and I tried to fix it myself to no avail. I will never stay at a motel 6 again. I’ve never requested a refund and probably never will but this was just deplorable.

This place is so disgusting. The smell is a mix of dog, mildew and urine. The dogs next door barked ALL NIGHT. Not even exaggerating. This place is not clean. If I could give it less than 1 star I would.

Pretty central to everything but... very thin walls, could hear the people next door getting it on, fresh cigarette smell in my room on the second night somehow (even though no smoking allowed), paint chipping from walls, one tiny bar of soap, greasy wet floors leaving feet dirty, key cards were faulty (had to go to front desk twice to get new ones, after long days out), next door people yelling early in the morning. won't be staying here again unfortunately.
