We arrived to the Motel 6 and the front desk staff was polite and friendly. Unfortunately, our room smelled heavily of stale cigarette smoke, much like the lobby. After being in the room for only about 10 minutes, I started getting a headache. We decided that because of this, we could not stay. I asked the front desk staff if they’d be willing to give me a refund or partial refund, but they said they could not because their cancellation policy was 24 hours. They did offer to move us to another room but given how the lobby of the motel smelled like cigarette smoke too, we opted just to leave and lose our money. I understand the 24 hour cancellation policy; however, this wasn’t a cancellation. We left due to the unsanitary accommodations.
