I know Motel 6 is “no frills”. I’m not particularly picky that way. But there is SO MUCH WRONG with this property that I hardly know where to start. The one thing that is OK are the two staff members—very friendly and polite. But they are alone doing everything, which means I’ve had to do a good bit of waiting. Other problems: Indoor pool: closed Elevator: out of order Ice machines: out of order Breakfast: no longer offered ( though it was still listed on the booking site) Walls paper-thin No coffeemaker, microwave, fridge, or hairdryer in room (as per various booking sites) Someone came to rekey the doors during our stay, but our keys stopped working after that, plus they didn’t do anything with the external security door, so the room keys cannot open them and we had to trek all the way back to front door to get in. Had to wait to get new key cards issued. Now security door is propped open so people don’t have to trek to the front, but, of course, no security. Daily housekeeping not happening (someone came on the first day to ask if we needed more toilet paper, but nothing after that.) Room seems to be basically clean, but shoddy workmanship apparent everywhere, no bed skirts to hide torn mattress, cabinet that used to have refrigerator and microwave standing empty and dusty, outlets a bit lopsided, floorboards missing around air conditioning unit). The whole place reeks of ********* (and since we are halfway down the hallway, you can’t blame this reek on the people clustering around the exit to get their fix—-this is IN the building, and mingling badly with paint fumes) And of course everywhere they advertise this as “newly renovated” but we stayed (in fact are currently spending our last night) in the midst of a construction zone. It is being renovated and seems to still have a LONG way to go before it will be done. I am seriously disappointed, especially since I could have spent $20 more a night for a significantly better property and would actually have come out ahead, because we’d have had breakfast, a hairdryer, and morning coffee included instead of buying these things off-site ourselves. My advice: Go somewhere else. There is no way the “discount” here is worth the stink, hassle, and lack of security and staff.
