It was late evening when I arrived, and I was exhausted, so it was my own fault that I did not check the room thoroughly before I brought all of my belongings in (which should not be necessary, but it is these days).
But I discovered a partially used soap and opened shampoos in the bathroom, and there was were numerous hairs on my pillowcase. The room had NOT been thoroughly cleaned!
To her credit, the hotel clerk did offer me another room, but because it was so late and I was so tired and had just unpacked everything, I only asked for clean pillowcases because all I wanted to do was sleep.
The hotel clerk herself, though she did apologize, was cold and very impersonal in nature. Overall, it was not a good experience. I would not recommend this particular Motel 6.

The owner doesn't like taking reservations from sites. The room was dirty cobwebs in the corners, floors dusty and dirty, bugs on the floor and pillow, shower was mildew on tile and shower head was nasty, faucet sprayed all over as turned it on! A dead baby bird was on the sidewalk out side entery door all weekend.The air conditioner was falling out of the wall and really didn't work very well. The extra rooms are given to transient people. The hallways very noise to all hours. A drunk man walking in the hallway bouncing off the walls.
This is not a motel I would recommend to anyone and amount of rooms on sites is not even worth the stay.

As my group checked in the front desk said he was the owner of property and proceeded to say how cheap I booked the room almost 1 year ago for a special event in the area. He was losing money for the 3 rooms I booked in advance, proceeded to question me why did I book so many rooms for 3 people with 2 beds in each. Why didn't I book 1 room only. (We actually had a few people that needed to cancel - really none of his business)!! The room was dirty floors, bugs on the floor and pillow, shower was mildew on tile and shower head was nasty, faucet sprayed at me as turned it on! He said you should have fixed it yourself!! I'm not his maintenance!! The air conditioner was falling out of the wall and really didn't work very well. The owners words exactly- The rooms extra he gives vacant to transient people. I feel he gave us these rooms by how we paid and judged us women for our looks for we were there for motorcycle event was world record breaking for us.
He talked with one if my group that he put in another room with king bed, because he didn't have all the rooms I booked in the lower level, insisting she do the review for him as he picked everything as perfect...
After he got the review from her his attitude and demeanor changed toward her, no longer accommodating.
His statement oh well you
can't please everyone and didn't want to hear anything!! She was trying to share for him to address so there wouldn't be nasty reviews!!

Horrible service. Our room got canceled without notice, when I arrived with my party they gave us false hope for a room, they made us wait 3 hours in their gross lobby and didn’t help. Employees were yelling at the hotel owners. The owners didn’t not want to face us, kept disappearing from the office.
Parking lot was dirty.
Guests were coming to the office complaining about their rooms being dirty.
This was a busy event weekend, owners took advantage of their employees and guests because they knew there wasn’t anything in the area available.

The condition of the property is run down at best. The rooms have been updated as cheaply as possible. The air conditioning and heating systems are so loud you can’t sleep, and they look 100 years old. The outside area isn’t maintained at all. It’s loud, especially because it’s by a hospital. There is a fridge and microwave but the fridge is barely cold and doesn’t have even a tiny freezer. The owner/manager was beyond rude. I understand this is an older property and inexpensive to stay at but that doesn’t mean it can’t be decent and the people running it can’t be kind. The yelled at me for booking through Expedia because now they have to pay them a commission. I tried to pay them cash and they charged me more than what Expedia did, of course I’m going to book via Expedia then. I stayed a week but had to continue my stay three times due to how I was able to pay for the room. Each time they charged me extra because then I needed to check in “early”. Because I rebooked the same room they wanted to me leave that room at 11 am (checkout) & come back at 3 pm (check in). I of course didn’t have to do that if I paid them a extra $15-$30 a day. I have NEVER ever done that at a hotel. Early check in fee sure, but NOT when I rebook the same room.The manager/owner then proceeded to rudely tell me it was $30 to check in at 11am instead of say 2pm which is when I paid only $15. I nicely asked how was I supposed to know that when it’s not written anywhere or mentioned? Do. Not. Book. Here.

The room seemed ok, but was hot, so I went to turn on AC, the unit was filled w dirt n dust. I had driven 900 miles, so I was exhausted, or I'd have left. The towels were not clean, the bedding smelled, and the next morning I saw mold in the shower caulking.

Things looked a little sketchy when we came into the hotel but the front desk staff acknowledged that it was a known issue, explained the process for addressing it and moved us up to the third floor that was quieter. They were vigilant in watching the cameras, noticed we were walking around on two different floors and came to assist us when we thought our cat got out. They greeted us when they were outside when we were loading our car to make sure everything when well for us. They are the main reason we would come back there.

chose this motel because it is only a few blocks from the hospital where my son had bypass surgery on Monday Jan 13. First there was no one at the desk, just man on computer that didn't speak very good English. Got to our room, ice machine broken had to go get ice some where. Internet not working in my room. They moved us to another room that had internet. That was our first night. Son surgery was next day and was at hospital from 5am til til early evening. Get back to motel and my card would not open my door, had to climb 2 1/2 levels to office and talk to a da-- computer again! Tuesday at hospital with son most of day get back to my room, card would not open my door again! When I went back up to talk to the computer it gave me another new card and then reminded me that I needed to check out tomorrow! Which I will and will not be recommending this to anyone, Hotel.com needs to take it off of their site. It has been the worst ever.

When me and my husband arrived the halls smelled like weed even though it is posted no smoking period on the property. The check in process was easy through a computer screen but easy. When we arrived in our room there were no sheets on the bed just blankets piled up but no biggie cuz we usually buy our own due to we have had issues with this before. The room was clean but the bathroom also had no towels and there was hair in the sink . It stated that room service was not till 11 and housekeeping showed up before 10 and asked if we needed anything to which I said no except for getting rid of garbage which they were kinda rude and pushed passed me and proceeded to check the room which my husband was still sleeping at the time other than that not really any complaints. Comfortable beds and decently quiet for the area. Decently priced. It was kinda a maze to find your way around no pool or workout area as listed and the elevator seems to have been out of order for awhile considering the other reviews that I read. If your on a budget and need a place to stay and don't need elevator then you should be fine. Other than that make your own judgement

Eh.

The check-in and check-out process is done via live feed with an off-site employee. It was a bit confusing, as our accents got in the way. The “deluxe room” was standard size, nothing too special. It did have a small fridge (that was almost cold) and a microwave. The elevator was broken (and had been for a while) and all of the rooms required stairs to get to…1st floor was down a few, 2nd floor was up a few, 3rd floor (where I stayed) was up a full flight plus. The pool was out of order and I could easily hear the conversations from other rooms when I walked through the hallway. The outside door (that requires a keycard) would not close/lock properly, so there was no need for a key card to gain access to the building. Housekeeping came into my room during the day to clean, even though I was only staying 2 nights. The linens were stained.
My stay was ok. I haven’t decided if I will stay there again and request a different type of room.

Worst motel ever!

From the moment I arrived, I was not welcomed. There was a man at the front desk who pointed to the kiosk for me to check in. He had a very thick Indian accent, so I couldn’t understand him very well at all. I was in the middle of Illinois! I proceeded to try to use the kiosk, but it wasn’t working very well. The IT girl on the screen also had a very thick accent, so it was very hard to understand her as well. I’ve never seen one of those kiosks for check before. I asked why the guy inside couldn’t help me with check-in and he proceeded to lock the office door and walk himself right out the building without helping me! the halls stunk of marijuana!. we then proceeded to our room. The bathroom light was extremely dim at best! I had to put my make up on in the hall where the lighting was somewhat better. The refrigerator was turned off so we couldn’t put our cold drinks into the refrigerator. There was no alarm clock to check the time in the middle of the night. it looks like a dog had chewed up one of the trim pieces. The pillows were like bags of rocks on my ear. I could hear someone talking in the next room because the walls were so thin! Only hotel I’ve ever stayed at without a hairdryer. This is definitely one of my worst experiences in my life!

No onsite staff. Check-in was via a kiosk, which was odd. Room was dirty. Towels were either dirty or stained which is gross either way. Same with the sheets and bed covering. There was a phone in the room, but not connected to anything. Two nights in a row I had to get a new key because it wouldn't open the room door. That was also done via a kiosk. Other people staying there were very load and made it difficult to sleep. There were strange characters in the parking lot. Made me feel unsafe. If you are still reading this, you should stay somewhere else. I wish I had.

Check-in was done by kiosk/zoom, it was hard to hear and understand what was being said. Elevator, multiple ice machines, pool and gym were not working or open. You can hear everything, even from several rooms down. Floors were dirty, with gum residue and staining on tile floor. Clean towels were stained and had hair trapped in them. I would not recommend this hotel unless you are very desperate for a roof over your head. Also there are no Do Not Disturb signs, so be ready to have your door pounded on in the morning.

Weed Killer for a smelly room?

We didn’t even stay here. Check in on the computer was confusing. It was only in Spanish so I couldn’t understand anything on the screen. The lady who was talking to us on it was difficult to understand, and it took way longer than if a regular person were there at the desk.

We got to our room, which should’ve been non smoking, but people were clearly either smoking in the room or around it. A mix of weed and cigs, and must. My nose started to run after 5 mins. We had our baby with us so there was no way we were staying there in that condition. When we asked about the problem the lady at the front for another room, they said there wasn’t another one available, then gave us a can of weed killer and told us to spray it around! Sorry but that is just unprofessional. My baby will not be crawling around and breathing in weed killer on our stay. Absolutely obnoxious.

The room wa clean but that was about the only good thing, the hotel is very old and shows it. The first room i was in the air conditioning didn't work and i had to ger cash to pay because the cc machine was broken and then also found out the elevator was broken as well. it needs alot of upkeep .
