This is our last Motel 6.

The room was not stocked. No Kleenex, no shampoo, no conditioner.

Our sheets had half a dozen cigarette burns in them. The blanket was so scratchy that we left the outer cover on over it, which we never do.

The AC could not keep the room cool even though it was only in the 70s outside.

The bed was very hard and left us with sore hips the next day.

The room was not soundproof, so we heard all the traffic outside.

We only came for a simple night's sleep and were denied it--and still paid $150 for the privilege.

Not again.

We always stay at a Motel 6 when we travel since they allow us to have our dogs in the room. This Motel 6 could use a make-over, but it is clean, comfortable, and quiet. (We were towards the back, not next to the street.) It was very hot and we preferred to have the windows open instead of using the air conditioner, but neither of the two windows would open. Happily, the air conditioner was relatively quiet so it didn't keep us awake.

We had to be moved to 3 different rooms. The first one the key didn't work, the 2nd room the heat wasn't hot so the 3rd room the front door had a gap under it so it took over 2hrs to heat the room. Then up stairs room the couple started yelling then an hour later someone was blasting music ager 1am. I'm so tired couldn't 😴

Learning to travel with a small dog.

Our first trip with a small dog. I looked at several lodgings and found quite a spread in pet fees. I haven't stayed at Motel 6 in a long time, and I verified that this property had pet space available.

Check-in was simple, the room was clean, and it met our needs for the night. I did not pay for a high-end hotel.
I got what I paid for. Coffee was ready in the office in the morning.

Everything in the room worked; paint, flooring, and bedding were in serviceable condition.

Beggars can’t be choosers and when you wait until Labor Day weekend like I did, then definitely can’t complain. You definitely get what you pay for. After tips I think I paid around 160 for Saturday to Sunday. I have definitely stayed at way worse for way more. This place also saved money and time because it was like a 10 to 15 minute walk to the fair groups. I would consider staying again

Made a reservation for a 2 night stay about a month in advance. Arrived at the property around 10:30pm and was told that there were no rooms available and reservations were only held if they were already paid for. I pulled up my receipt showing that I had already paid, but it turned out that didn’t make a difference, they still hadn’t saved a room for me. The desk employee said reservations aren’t guaranteed (what?) and if you don’t arrive early enough they just cancel the reservation. This whole discussion was happening while he was renting a room to a walk in couple at the desk. I understand desk staff are just employees following company policy but I was pretty unhappy with the experience. Pickings were slim for hotels and trying to find a room for my family last minute was not ideal. I definitely won’t be booking a room again now knowing that reservations don’t actually mean anything.

You get what you pay for. Cheap room in a cheap motel. Cigarette burn holes in the curtains. Lots of homeless hanging around and the nightly trains going by made it a bit noisy. However, I will say that housekeeping was very accommodating to my schedule
It is also the only Motel 6 I have ever been at that has restrictions on cats. They did honor my initial reservation as it was already paid for, but I couldn't extend my stay. I found this weird as the National Motel 6 has advertised for years that all pets stay free.

Worst aspect was bugs, appeared to be young cockroaches that didn't like the light but we had pictures of them from both bathroom and bedroom areas that we showed when we checked out but little concern was given, led us to sleep with lights on which was not as restful. Loved design of the room including bathroom. Reservation was for 4 people but only 3 towels even after it was cleaned during second day (took away extra towels we got by request). Also wish i knew pool was going to be closed the whole time as we looked forward to it. Did appreciate it was close to expo center.
