    Rooms themselves were clean but flooring in the bathroom was coming up b/c the shower sprayed outside of the curtain even when it was closed. Bed and sheets were nice and clean. The property looked terrible (an actual part of the roof and stucco was hanging off the second building) very sketchy. Definitely a get what you pay for kind of place.

    Room felt dirty, no ashtray in room. Did not feel safe.

    Although the beds looked made, the room did not look as if it was clean. The soap bar wrapper was empty and left on the counter. The counter and the dresser top did not look like it was cleaned since it had crumbs and dirt on it. The floor did not look swept, the bathroom tub looked dirty, and there were no towels in the room so we had to ask for them at the front office. Even though the room was a non-smoking room it had a smell to it like a cigar. Lastly, the front office had a pungent smell of ethnic food.

    Stay away from this flophouse. The pictures on the Hotels.com site must've been taken years ago. Let's start with the check-in: when we got there, the attendant (owner?) said no smoking rooms were available, even though we ordered it in advance. My wife looked at me and said, "Well, he paid for a smoking room, so a discount would be appropriate.". What do you know? A smoking room became available. Then, when we entered the room, it was a shock. Motel 6 built its brand on basic, but clean, rooms in reasonable shape. First, the bathroom door was disconnected from the bottom hinge (picture). Then, to our amazement, the bathtub had a huge crack in the floor which was "repaired" with some sort of plastic that gave way when you stepped in it (picture). Next, the flooring at the entrance to the bathroom felt like it was giving way when you stepped on it (picture). The walls on each side of the room had significant damage, unrepaired (picture). Next, the room door had obviousely been kicked in and left unrepaired (picture). Police raid, maybe? Lastly, there was a disturbing red discoloration on one of the walls (picture). Blood, maybe? Now that we've recently retired, my wife and I travel quite a bit. This trip was for our grandson's graduation. When we return to the area, you can bet we'll be staying elsewhere.

    Very run down appearing property. Lots of unsavory guests sitting outside the rooms. Ice machine did not work properly. Bedspread had stains on it. And sheets had a cut mark in them??? I choose this hotel because I had 2 dogs traveling with us and just needed a place to rest for a few hours… it seemed very sketchy. I would not not recommend this Motel 6. ( I have stayed in many that were updated and well kept but this did not meet my budget hotel standards)

    Shower curtain rod was hanging down so low, both ends of the shower curtain slide open. Bathroom floor was sinking around the toilet, with cracked tiles all around. Floor is ready to collapse. The walls had dirt, grease, and crayon markings all over them. The floors are filthy. Exterior has gutters hanging down from the roof and trash all around the property. Part of the brick divider wall between units had collapsed on the roof. All of the material was laying on top of the roof.

    This was the most disgusting hotel I’ve ever stayed at in my life! It was a non-smoking room that reeked of stale smoke. There was a dirty handprint on the wall above the bed. No shades on any of the lamps. Missing a fluorescent bulb above the sink. The one light that was above the sink did not work. The vent hanging in the bathroom was hanging without a cover around it. The light in the bathroom flashed like a disco light. There were multiple burn holes in the blanket. Parts of the floor were peeling up and other parts looked like someone carved into it with a knife. There was dirt all around the baseboards. Could not stay. Had to leave.

    I didn’t. It was disgusting. Hard beds. Wouldn’t give extra pillows for a king size bed. There was black mold covered by paint under the sink. There was a wash cloth covering the leaking pipes under the sink. The shower curtain was completely broke off the wall so the shower curtain stayed in the middle of the shower and wouldn’t close. The smell was absolutely horrendous. There were MULTIPLE people complaining and canceling their rooms when we got there.

    We booked here because our travel plans changed and it was last minute. The motel is very rundown. The shower didn’t work and there were no shampoo or conditioners for use no shower gel. Only three very small bars of soap. It is not at all what we have experienced at this chain in the past.

    This motel had the lowest price of any in the area and we were ecstatic to get it at that rate. The towels were washed but had some tints that will never come out. The TV remote was a bit difficult to operate. Sometimes took extra time to reach the desired channel. Given the price we expected a few minor issues and we would recommend this motel for anyone on a tight budget.

  • John May 2026 · via expedia

    I know the room was cheaper than others I looked at but that doesn’t excuse the fact there weren’t any towels for showers and no soap to wash your hands after a bathroom visit. I was expecting a knock on the door from the maid to bring in towels. I went out for dinner and forgot about it. Next day I went into the shower and remembered they never brought me any towels. Very disappointed this happened to me. My wife told me don’t go thru 3rd party go direct to the motel hotel. Learned a lesson.

    The toilet was clean even though it wasn't attached to the floor. They were kind enough to move me from the room used as a cat box to a less foul smelling room. I didn't see any evidence of bed bugs so yay! I did not die as a result of a burglary or drug deal gone bad, another bonus! It was run down and beat up! Half of the lights didn't work and all of them were just bare bulb, no lampshades or covers. The lamp by the bed was taped together then taped to the plug under the bed. The lock for my door was broken so every time I left and came back they had to let me in. The window did not latch so I had to put something in the sill to stop it from opening. I do not recommend it for a female traveling alone.

    Without a doubt, this was the worst hotel I've ever stayed at. When i first arrived there were 3 cop cars handling a 'situation' that went on for hours and required more police to arrive. There was visible fire damage to the outside. Next, the room was an absolute horror. The filthiest room I've ever seen. Stains on the walls galore, scrapes, missing chunks from the floor and doorframes. Dust everywhere and holes in the linen. Foul smelling microwave and the fire alarm was not even connected nor did it have batteries. Cockroaches and BED BUGS found in the room. When all this was brought to attention of the staff, they couldnt be bothered to apologize or care and offered us only a partial refund. Absolute insanity.

There was no shower curtain, the towels were stained, the drawers were all broken and missing handles, there was trash in the drawers, the bedspread was dirty with burn holes in it. There was no remote, no ashtray and the AC unit looked like someone had taken off the front and didn't put it back on all the way. It was disgusting! I quickly complained and went and stayed somewhere else.

    The pictures don’t reflect the reality. Check in was done through a window in the middle of winter because it was after 11PM. Bedsheets had brown stains. Bathroom tub was cracked and uneven floor, the knobs we’re broken. Toilet seat didn’t match the bowl size. Heater don’t heat the space with -9 degree Celsius weather. We have stayed at other motel 6 in Canada but didn’t realize the condition of motel 6 in the US is so poor. Felt like a motel in rural India. This establishment shouldn’t operate in this condition.

    First off, we were given a smoking room, which is fine — we’ve stayed in plenty of smoking rooms before — but none of them have ever smelled like straight-up piss. The smell was overwhelming. Second, the bathroom was a complete nightmare. In front of the sink AND the shower, water was literally coming up from the floorboards. Every time you stepped in there, the floor made a nasty “squish” sound and your feet got soaked. We even tried to take a shower, but honestly, it was one of those situations where you get out feeling just as gross because the whole environment felt dirty — especially with mystery water seeping up beneath your feet. Third, there was a fly problem in the room too. We were grateful it wasn’t termites. Fourth, after a long day of traveling, of course we were hungry. But when we opened the microwave, it looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in ages. There was dried-on food stuck to the plate and even half of a Styrofoam cup filled with old beans and carrots still sitting in there. Absolutely disgusting. We had to scrub the plate ourselves and let it soak because that’s how old and crusted the mess was. And let’s not forget: the AC filters were filthy. Covered in dust and grime. This room should have never been given to anyone

    This was the dirtiest hotel room that I ever seen!!! There were holes in the walls, black mold on the sealing in the bathroom, the towels had stains on them, the doors had cracks in them wear you could look out side or in the bathroom and see through it. The floor and walls were wealthy!!!! The key did not work and the hotel employee has to let me it. It was like sleeping in a crack house! I considered sleeping in my car but I slept in the room because the bed looked clean and I got in town at 12:30 am and I was excused. I woke up and left after brushing by teeth and washing my face. I refused to take a shower because it was dirty. DO NOT STAY HERE UNLESS YOU ARE ON DRUGS AND YOU ARE LOOKING TO GET HIGH! The people next store were definitely drug addicts because they were make loud noises in the middle of the night and had very aradic behavior!!! The place should be comdemed by the health department. I will never stay in a Motel 6 for the rest of my life!!! I'm completely traumatized. By the way I took pictures and if they allow me to post them I will share them on this email.

    No matainance had been done in a long time . Wall paper ripped off wall or water damaged and not repaired. Floor seemed to have been damaged by water. Sub floor material probably rotted out.

    We booked a non smoking room, it they put us in a smoking room that the smoke smell was so bad it made it hard to breathe. There was a milk crate box holding up the bed. Grass was on the floor. They did allow us to cancel our reservation when they could not provide us with a non smoking room.

    It is what you would expect for a $80 hotel room. No blankets just 2 top sheets, smelled horrible, floor in bathroom was literally rotting, toilet would spin on the floor, dirt hair etc in the corners of the room. When I asked for towels they did give me those.

    As others had mentioned, you get 1 washcloth, 1 towel. I had a two double bed room. The beds had no protective pad, not plastic, no liner. Just bottom sheet, top sheet and a thin cover/quilt if you want to call it that. Also, was given 1 plastic slide key and the sheath was reused w the room number on it. You had to return to the office at checkout. They would.know from this system. I left for Blacksburg.and gave my key to the desk as i wanted to be sure if i didn’t return it by 11 i wouldn't be charged. I said i wasn't sure how my night would go - if drinking i wouldn't drive back. He tella me at the counter that if I'm not coming they want to tuen the room over. I paid for the night. The room was mine till 11am the next morning. Tell me how that is a messed up system: The one card with a sheath w room # that needs to be turned in... And they would want my room if I'm not returning.

    First off, the microwave doesn't work, and when I reported it, just shrugged and said I don't have another microwave. There was garbage underneath the a/c, like it was just swept under it, the heat doesn't work, the garbage wasn't even emptied, and the people, except for the one young girl, are very unfriendly and short.

    Bugs all over the floor, fridge was standing open when we went in with bugs all through it. We were sticking to the floor walking in the bathroom, the tub was dripping noisily all night. Bed was the most uncomfortable I think I have ever felt. Yes, you get what you pay for, but I have stayed in comparably priced rooms before and not been unhappy with them.

    Dirty, outdated, holes in the way. Dirt and something resembling to feces was all over the floor and the bathroom door. Large hole near the shower head. As I was packing up the next morning to check out one of the workers just barged into my room without announcing himself or apologizing. He did the same thing to the guest next door and I heard her scream since the work was quite aggressive upon entering the rooms. Too bad my boyfriend wasn’t with me on this trip, he would have definitely spoken to that rude aggressive worker. The only thing good about this place is that it’s near a whole bunch of restaurants. This motel is trash. I would not recommend. I give it a 0/10.

    The motel gave me an initial room that was in complete disrepair and unihabitable. When they assigned another room, the new room reeked of cigarette smoke. The bedding had holes in them from ashes and the flooring was warped in certain spots, not to mention very dirty throughout the room. I immediately went to the front desk and requested a refund from the hotel due to these reasons and to the extremely poor conditions oof the hotel and my asthma that would prevent me from staying in a smoke congested room. Hotel reception told me to call Expedia for a refund that they would authorize. When I called Expedia for the refund, they stated they would call the hotel for the authorization for a refund. Of course this process took days. Expedia told me that the hotel denied my request for a refund because I failed to submit a complaint when all I did when I got there was complain. Expedia upheld their denial and didn’t authorize my refund request despite multiple communication efforts with them and the hotel. In short, I requested a charge back from my bank and credit card for this booking. I will not be using Expedia anymore.

    The area is very safe and cute neighborhoods around. The Spanish restaurant next door was very good. A Food Lion grocery store is right across the street. The staff was friendly enough. However, the room itself was very poor. There was a big hole in the wall where the door opens. The room was old, smelled of mold, and needed a lot of work. I would stay in any other hotel in this area and avoid this one.

    This motel was just dirty. There were cobwebs and caving in floors. The sheets and pillows had stains. The wall in our bathroom had a humongous hole full of toilet paper. There was a hole in the place where the door handle was supposed to go, someone could look through it through the handle itself. It was somewhere to sleep and wasn’t horrible for what it was, but I would recommend spending just a little more if you can on somewhere a little nicer.

    The beds were relatively comfortable and the sheets and towels were clean. The place was not in overall good condition but was functional. The floor was uneven. Not all the outlets worked. One was missing a cover. In one room, there was no smoke detector but there was a plastic bag shoved in the hole where it should have been. The hot water came and went. The shower had great pressure tho-it was like being power washed. The toilet seat was loose. In another room, the toilet wasn't anchored to the floor. There was red nail polish on furniture and sink and my son thought it was blood and freaked out. Worst of all - NO BLANKETS. Exactly 2 pillows per bed. One towel, one hand towel and one wash cloth per person. NO EXTRAS. And cats everywhere. The managers/owners and their family live there and I think the cats are theirs. They're nice folks, but the whole thing is weird. I won't stay there again. Next time I'll spend another $50 a night and go somewhere else. Overall, this is a step up from a camp site.

    I wasn't pleased with the fact there was not fresh toilet paper upon arrival 😔 had to go to the office to get. No wash clothes were provided either. Hated the smell of the cleaner that was used. Room needs to be fixed, bathroom door was too small for opening big gap when closed. There was a hole where the door knob was to the bathroom as well. Pillow cases were dirty, not sure of the sheets, as I slept on top of blankets. Definitely NOT worth the $90 dollars.

    I didn’t know what to expect when I booked it. I just knew it was a good price. We were going to see a concert Metallica at Virginia Tech so I didn’t care at the time, but it was a lot less than I thought it would be as far as quality, I thought it would be a little more updated not so Outdated and not comfortable. I was very happy to book the Highlander for the second night. We just left the other night paid for and not used.

Tub was probably clean but was stained and looked dirty. Road noise kept us awake most of the night. The bed was comfortable but only a sheet and thin spread were provided. The door didn't seal well and left in a cold draft so we were also cold. Will not stay there again.

    This motel was absolutely discusting. We were tired and just needed to sleep and we booked this place becauae it was right off the interstate. After inspecting for bed bugs and against my better judgment, we decided to stay just to rest for a few hours before getting back on the road. At 1am I was awoken by a mouse eating our food out of our grocery bag. Immediately packed up and left. When i talked to the person at the front desk about the deplorable conditions, all he could say was "oh". DO NOT STAY HERE.
