Horrible, lumpy pillows and mattress. Stained sheets. Two microwaves but neither worked. Bugs in the flatware drawer. Garbage disposal did not work and had smelly food left in in. Loud train went by every hour. Smoke detector on ceiling had a flashing light that lit up the ceiling in the dark. Bathroom door gets stuck when you slide it closed, extremely difficult to slide back open. Couch was extremely stained, plus had hole in it where the foam cushion was exposed. Basically, we tried not to touch anything and checked out first thing in the morning and found a different place to stay.

The motel smells musty and like wet dog. It seems there may have been flooding or some type of leak. Our first room was on the 3rd floor at the end of the hallway that smelled liked mold. The room was in terrible condition and the AC didn't work. So we had to go back downstairs and change rooms. Then we went back to the first room and hauled our things to the 2nd room. The 2nd room was better but not by much. The curtain was being held back by a thumbtack and had a rip to hook on it. The bedside lamp had burn marks and there was a white stain on the floor that looked questionable. The bathroom ceiling over the shower had a leak stain and mold growing. Also in the bathroom the air vent was covered in dust and possibly more mold. We will not be returning to any motel 6 locations going forward. We will choose to go somewhere else.

Not great

Cockroaches in the room. Sink was clogged on arrival. Smoke detector was hanging halfway off the ceiling and chirping, had to snap it back on myself. Carpet runner along the wall was hanging off. Electrical receptacles in room with no cover plates. No soap or shampoo in the bathroom. Noise transfers through the walls like crazy so we could hear the neighbors late into the night/early morning. We mentioned the cockroaches to the front desk and were told we would get some sort of refund, but never received anything.
