Very clean
I have to say this was a last-minute business trip I needed to be somewhere that was conveniently located between a border and downtown. The moment I checked in, I was warmly greeted with great customer service skills.
I got into the room and I was completely blown away how the room was extremely large and also completely remodeled. No charge for parking with plenty of parking. The staff housekeeping people are very polite and caring.

Very Friendly but very few handicap spots. They need to enforce parking. The vehicles didn’t have any sign of handicap parking placard or plates. I had to park at guest parking

We stayed for 10 days and we had a great experience overall! Although the surrounding area is questionable we felt safe. The room had new furniture and was updated. There is no breakfast, iron, or hair dryer so bring your own. The room service came in every day and cleaned up the room. We appreciated that a lot! The employees at the front desk were very kind and helpful!

The staff was great, it’s not their fault it’s run down. The hotel stunk, they still allow smoking in some rooms. The beds were ok again it’s a motel 6 don’t expect much. But I couldn’t get over the air conditioner/heating unit. It was horribly filthy! Covered in so much dirt and built up gunk that doesn’t get removed unless someone cleans it. Water got turned off right before I got ready for a 5 star dinner, I was a little embarrassed I didn’t shower prior to that event.

toenails with nail polish on the side of the bed on the floor.
Dirty floor. The toenails were still there after 3 nights. I put them against wall to see if they would be gone after daily cleaning, but they were still there. Shower door setup. To turn on water to shower you will need to be in the shower to turn on. Cold water every time. I Placed a towel over shower head to prevent this. The location is good, the check in person was very nice.

Room was very large and clean, check-in and out was very easy. Future visitors may want to be aware of the hotel's proximity to the freeway and the potential for traffic noise with that.

Overall great experience, I’ve stayed at a few motels in my time but this is probably the nicest motel I’ve stayed at. It was clean and had larger than most hotel mini fridges and microwave and it was nice to have free parking. The location was ok but right next to freeway but noise wasn’t too bad.
