Close to majority of everything. Typical room. Evidence of being runned down. Could not have guests over. Had to pay a seperate deposit of $75 which was not returned.
Rooms in poor condition. Bedding stained and had hair on. Dreadful lumpy or thin pillows, 3 pillows for a king bed all different but all bad. No noise treatment to the rooms at all, noisy all night. Hot water for the shower took an age to come through, finished a luke warm shower then it got hot!
Stayed here in an emergency situation do to cr troubles. Stained sheets and walls. Floors haven’t been swept. Sticky food or drink on the walls and mini fridge. C*m stains on comforter and shoe marks on sheets. Asked for a new change of sheets and blankets but they had red and brown stains on them. Woke up with bug bites on my legs and face. They haven’t returned my $75 deposit despite bringing all the issues to the front desk before using the room. I have pictures of the room damages and nasty areas that I showed to the receptionist and it want taken seriously.
There was no blanket on the bed. There were no shower or bathroom supplies available or in the room. They still haven't refunded my security deposit and tried not to because of some excuse about smoking when i haven't smoked in 4 years. Then they tried charging me for a blanket they never had in the room in the first place. Luckily i take video and pictures of room conditions when i stay anywhere so i have proof this hotel is a terrible place to stay unless you want drug addicts bothering you throughout the night. I will not stay there again. Also the shower takes 15 min to warm up and the air conditioning and heater combo has its own mind.

The rooms were clean. The exterior was very old and unkept. The stairs looked like they were crumbling and falling apart.
I love the staff very friendly and professional the manager she was hands down fantastic.
Thank you Mrs. Rama and Mr. Albaro super friendly front desk staff..
Thank you to housekeeper very professional
Beds were hard. Sheets appeared to be soiled. Shower water not hot (when I checked out and mentioned that the desk lady said I had to wait 10 minutes!!!!). Outlets didn’t work. Had to change rooms at the check in lady’s invitation. She offered an extension cord!!! Never a Motel 6 again!!
