    Dorm rooms seem bigger. Sticky spot under the desk. Refrigerator coils were frozen over with ice and it whirred all night. The sheets were stained. The lights in the parking lot were like it was noon all night, even with shades down the light around the edges was bright! The bathroom sink had something like bread dough in it. The bathtub at first glance is quite nice, but it was slippery to stand on while showering. The bed was a 7” mattress with very little support. My second night back to the hotel, the amount of illegal smoking substances present in the lobby and hallways were enough to get a second hand smoke “mellow” feeling in my room overnight. Not sure I can blame that on the property but, it was mentionable. However, air conditioner worked great!

    Room was clean- hallways needed swept, and garbage can out front was overflowing

    You can put lipstick on a pig but it is still a pig.

    The 1st room the sink was clogged and hair coming out the drain. The floors had weak spots and the phones in rooms don’t work. Paint chipping everywhere and they let crack heads hang out in the entryway and an over all smell inside the building. If your needing a bed only it works.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    All was good. Did need an ice machine but the only one in the building was not working. We also reported that the sink in room 212 was draining very slow.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Clean room, not enough towels or trashcan. Bets were comfortable enough but mattress would slide all over the base. No breakfast at all, Ice machine didn't work, pool was closed.

    Since the rooms have been upgraded in the past, they are very pleasant to stay in. The exterior cleanliness could be a little bit better, but the rooms and interior cleanliness was very good. The staff was friendly and helpful and I checked in and out quickly. The motel is a great choice for quick no frills stays.

    Older looking hotel. Staff was friendly and helpful. Room was big and clean with comfortable beds. No coffee or microwave in room. Bathtub needed a slip proof mat. It was very slippery. Pool out of commission. Quiet and convenient to expressway and some restaurants. Shout out to Mi Patria Ecuadorian restaurant. Excellent food and service.

    All we expected was a clean room with a bed, shower and tv. We were in the area for a soccer tournament and this motel was far more affordable than others, if you're fine not having a pool or breakfast. It was a decent stay.

    The toilet wasnt even bolted down!

  • Engine customer May 2026

    The clerks I interacted with were very pleasant. The manager on the other hand was HORRID ~ VERY RUDE! I liked that there was no carpet in the room. I really really really didn't like that the doors were not automatic. Made it very challenging to get the luggage in especially since it was 2 doors. Would I stay again? Probably.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Pet friendly. That's it. Got there at 9:30. I was exhausted. He asked my name and I said Kathryn. He said I had no reservation. I said no I do. Then he told me another lady had the same name as me...Kathryn. did he check the last name? No. I was exhausted. He booked me a room on 3rd floor a day gave us a crap room with hole in wall, plumbing screamed when you turned on the shower, and the room was sketchy. People there were all sketchy. It was not what I expected. I paid $85.62 & my reservation was for $81.64. I will be calling motel 6 and the hotel on Tuesday. I expect a full refund. This was ridiculous.
