Horrible. The front desk guy was great but the room was dirty, they painted the bathtub to cover stains? No door seal on front door. The buttons on the heater unit were missing. I didnt shower here cause the shower head was so filthy i didnt want to get sick or have health issues. I wont be using expedia again.

Let me tell you about my recent stay at the Motel 6 at [Location]. It was nothing short of a nightmare. From the moment I tried to check in, the experience was subpar, with staff who seemed less than enthusiastic to be there. However, the real kicker was the state of the room itself. It became painfully obvious that the door was not properly sealed or squared. Throughout the entire night, cold air poured in, making the room incredibly uncomfortable. Even worse, during some rain, water actually leaked in from under the door! This resulted in my shoes being damaged – something I certainly didn't budget for on this trip. The combination of a drafty, cold room and water damage to my belongings made for a truly miserable stay. It's clear that maintenance is lacking at this location, and the poor door seal is a significant issue that needs to be addressed. Save yourself the headache and the potential damage to your belongings – steer clear of this Motel 6. I certainly won't be returning. and to top it off, whoever was in the front desk at my checkout was extremely rude
