They don't sweep very often and having laundry facility advertised and then realize it's down isn't cool. Especially since your charged for that option anyhow. Nowhere on the site does it mention that it's not available. And changing the time to get coffee in the office. All of a sudden it's not available after 10am and pulled and it's always cold and weak. Nothing like cutting corners huh? It really sucks because if a motel doesn't have coffee available 24/7 like almost all do......then it's a game changer and not worth staying there. Why isn't a lot of amenities not posted on site when your booking and thinking your getting all of them????????? We are paying for them, right?

fair price and honest service, unfortunately our air conditioning was not working.
Comfortable bed and reasonably friendly staff, but the room smelled of cigarette smoke despite a no-smoking policy, the furnishings had seen better days, and other tenants/people in the parking lot were acting strange (blasting music, revving engines, wandering around the balconies in pajamas staring at the parking lot people and looking lost and confused - actually, on second thought, that last bit might have been reasonable behavior…). Good for a cheap hotel and non-picky customers. There is only coffee at the motel, but they do offer a discount at the next-door IHOP if you present your hotel key.
The night xlerl Mixhele was awesome at.chexk in... they had me in a smoking room and i can not stay innpet or smoking rooms.. Michele quicly changed my room and was so nice and professional about it. Check out lady was great next morning
The staff was very helpful and pleasant. The location was terrible. Took a walk and there were crack pipes on the sidewalk. The heater/air conditioner cover was broken. The outside of the door looked like someone tried to break on. The floor was dirty and couldn’t walk around without socks or shoes. No in room coffee. Bed was comfortable.
I liked the evening girls and morning girl in the office. The only good manager is the one that does real work . You would be better off renting a room at any other hotel. They allow fentanyl users to use drugs all over the property and allow a lot of illegal activity to go on. They steal your money after they say they refunded your money when they didn't. AND THEY FORGE RECORDS AND LIE. THEY HIRE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS WHO DONT DO THEYRE JOBS. THE ROOMS ARE DISGUSTING
It was as good as we could make it being in a hotel with children. It was peaceful besides my occasional imps. Thank you very much motel 6 for your hospitality
