Do not stay here

The floor had not been swept. Covered in dirt and debris. So much i couldnt take my shoes off, without my feet getting gross stuff stuck to it. There was loose tobacco on the night stand, clearly not wired or cleaned. Hairs in the sink, shower and pubes in the toilet. The bed felt as if it was broken, one side was much higher than the other, to the point i could get no sleep and hurt my back all night. Explained it to the manager in the morning, not only did he not care, he assured me that the beds were new and i was wrong. Very frustrating experience. Also the someome came in to notify the owner that a dog was loose on the property, he immediately dismissed it and blamed the homeless and was very rude, the gentleman than told him he waa one of the homeless nextdoor and that it wasnt any of their dogs. The owner scoffed at the man and turned his nose up, and gave the biggest look of disgust. Couldnt even hide it. It honestly was very cringe and i couldnt believe the owner had so little professionalism. No offer for a discount, ir a discounted future stay. Its sad that the room was as gross as it was, and that the owner felt no need to take responsibility. I will not be staying here in the future, even tho over the years this is probably my 6th or 7th visit. I understand cheap hotels. But not filthy and so uncomfortable you can even sleep.

lame

the lobby virtual check-in was ridiculous especially with a staff member sitting behind the screen at the same time a person remotely directing me to complete my check-in was the worst experience I have had.

Air quality

The room we stayed in smelled so bad like wet dog. I understand that pets are allowed, but it was so bad when we opened the door. They could at least take care of the air quality in the room.

10/10 Exceptional

Typical Motel 6 but with a very clean and large room that didn’t show a lot of age or wear/tear (maybe newer or recently remodeled?). The mattress was too firm for my preference but that seems to be typical of most Motel 6’s I’ve stayed at. Quiet area even though it’s off the highway amid other budget hotels and food stops. For the price it’s a very good option when you just need a clean but basic room in a safe, convenient, quiet area to stop for the night.
