Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The outside appearance looked dilapidated, upon the entrance the appearance of the office was clean lanolin with dirty windows and walls in need of repair. I had an issue with my card and then tried to pay with my child's prepaid card but was not willing to accept her paper copy of her ID until she received her actual card so I canceled the reservation. Motel 6 tried to charge my card later that day for $97.00. I did not stay there nor was I rude and I reserved through a 3rd party. So hlad I handle business when I take trips through prepaid cards and I keep them locked.

Not the best Motel 6
The front desk was accommodating and friendly. Upon entering the room it looked crisp and clean. The floor was tiled and not carpet and that was pleasing to me. After a little while in the room, we started seeing small roaches and a few unrecognizable bugs. When time for bed, the fitted sheet would not stay on and we eventually were sleeping on the cheap plastic mattress cover.

Of all the Motel 6's I've stayed at in the past, this one by far was the worst. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

Crickets and clogged toilet
At check-in, there’s a sign on counter that there may be crickets in your room. It said it’s cricket season and there’s nothing they can do about it. Got to room and the toilet is clogged up with feces. Call front desk and they tell me to come down and they’ll put me in a different room
