I arrived in town late in the afternoon. I looked up cheap hotel deals and found the Motel 6 in Gulf Shores. Clean, comfortable room and a budget price. It was just what I needed.

Staff was great, room could use some TLC

The stay was great, quiet and affordable. The room was certainly older but in ok condition. There were stains/spots near one of the beds on the floor. Under the edge of the nightstand. The water was hot and the water pressure was good. The fridge in the room did not keep food cold though so it either needs repair or replacement. I will say though that the service we got at the front desk was SUPER, everyone we interacted with was friendly and attentive. Which made the stay much better, even with the few issues in the room itself.

Waited 10 minutes for anyone to come to the front desk and help us. Not even exaggerating. Was able to check in a little early so that was nice. Being charged the same for a downgraded room, not so nice. Room smelled terrible. Like mold and Marijuana. Towels were stained. Bathroom light didn't automatically come on. There was one time it took close to an hour to turn on. The people above us were pretty loud at random times of the night which was pretty distracting. I wouldn't say it's the worst place but for the price I wouldn't say its worth it.

Think twice before making reservation.

The hotel needs to be cleaned and sanitized. My first room was nasty. Bathtub had mold around the ends and back. The floor in front mold. Second room was nasty. Two towels were disgusted.one towel looked as if it was used to work on a vehicle. Second towel had mildew on it. Shower curtain was mildew. When I walked in the window was open without a screen. Insects and rodents could come in easily. The pictures on your website doesn’t even look like the motel in Gukf Shores, Al. The outside has siding coming off and needs a good washing. I can’t even give this motel a star.

The water pressure is very bad, the room is sterile, the WiFi is almost nonexistent, the towels were all stained, very few TV channels. The only good thing I can say about this place is they made the bed and changed out towels every day.
