Loud people in adjoining rooms until 2:00 AM on a Saturday evening. Mostly though, for what you get, $250 per night is highly overpriced. Won't be back.

I usually stay at a Motel 6 when I’m in the area, I arrived close to midnight , unfortunately so I was exhausted, but when I got in the room and pulled the blankets back, I found that there were ants crawling on the pillows and the mattress it was a room with Two double beds so I took the other one and it was the same issue then the room was hot and stuffy and it smelled like urine, when I tried to turn the AC unit off it did not work at all so I didn’t bother to complain and a lot of construction workers so I was a little creeped out and didn’t want to go down there by myself. I barely slept, and when I did not off, I was able to feel ants crawling on my face. It was an awful experience.

I stay here frequently and spent multiple nights this visit as well; however only the handicap room was the issue as I found dirt/debris under the bed. Otherwise perfectly pleasant stay!

There was dirt and dust, including hair, all over the floor and the sink was full of dirt (like they emptied the dirt from the floor into the sink). When we asked them to clean the floor they reluctantly came with a broom, and told us they had no vacuum, and smartly explained that it was after all a motel 6, and what did we expect, oh and they would be adding a $7.00 charge to our bill for use of the broom. The bedspread was stained and there was dirt inside the sheets. We did not stay, it was repulsive!

We had walking cockroaches in our room upon check in. They gave us a different room that had no cockroaches but was overall not clean. Old, outdated motel that is very dirty
