Its great for the price. The staff were very friendly and kind. The only issues we had were the crumbs along the bedframe and the stained sheets. The bathroom floor also had hair and crumbs all over it. Other than that the room was clean and kept.

THIS IS THE WORST, NON KID FRIENDLY, SCARY, NOT MAINTAINED PROPERTY THAT WE HAVE EVER SEEN. The doors did not lock, there was bags of trash all around the property, lots of people sitting in cars all night, sketchy area, not safe, very old tub, super small bathroom, no towels, THE POOL HAS BEEN CLOSED SINCE COVID, the entire first floor is rented out by long term tenants, this place should be closed down!

We stayed here one night just traveling through. The room was sparse, but clean so that was fantastic. The bed, however, was terrible. It sloped downward & there was som sort of metal bar right across the middle of my back. I could barely get out of bed the next morning. If you have any sort of back issues, I would stay somewhere else.

The bed was rock hard actually messed up my back to where I had to go to the chiropractor breakfast was not out when it was supposed to be out checkin was ridiculous they double booked the room I was supper to get so we got put into a smaller room with less beds. The room also cost alot less than the one I booked and they refused me a refund never again will we go there. Also had some druggies in and out all night being loud and fighting did not feel safe and it scared my children.

Front desk staff was nice and helpful. However the bed was extremely uncomfortable and the room felt dirty. There was constant loud noise I. Our hall way and there was never anything done by staff to help reduce the noise. Room was either extremely cold or hot. If AC was on it was really cold and if it wasn’t on then it was really hot. Only stayed to catch an early flight and it was hard to even get 5 hours of sleep with the comfort of the bed.

It is in a convenient location with lots of stores and restaurants nearby. Check in was quick and smooth. When we got to our room, the cigarette odor was so strong even though it claims to be a smoke free property. Within 5 minutes my nose and eyes were burning so we had to leave and book a hotel elsewhere. The tiles/vinyl plank were not glued down so they were shifting and my daughter tripped on one of them that was overlapping another tile. There were also holes in the bathroom door from someone punching it. The bathroom exhaust fan didn’t work. Those cosmetic factors could have been overlooked if the odor wasn’t so strong.

I was pretty skeptical and was so afraid I'd made a big mistake upon looking at the lobby. It really needs to be updated and remodeled. And even scarier when I saw the hallway. But once I got up to the room, I was pleasantly surprised. It's a bare bones room, with nothing fancy, but it was clean and a little more updated. The mattress was a little lumpy, but it was pretty comfortable regardless. It could use some USB ports to plug cell phones in and charge them. But the bathroom was clean, the beds were clean, and I would stay there again.

I stayed here for 3 nights for an annual work trip in Columbus, and I must say I was pleasantly surprised. Room was solid and clean - comfortable bed, basic amenities including a fridge. It was cleaned daily by the time I returned from work. Location is great, right next to I-70 (but not enough you notice it) and everything you'd need as far as restaurants, shopping, etc. nearby. A small touch like having the elevator accessible by hotel key only with a third-floor room was noticed on my part. I didn't feel unsafe. I can't speak for others, of course. But with a budget chain, I don't expect a luxury stay. I just want something solid for the duration yet budget-friendly. This accomplished both.

This is the best motel 6 I have ever stayed at and other locations should model themselves after this one. This motel 6 is budget friendly yet the room was excellent. Safe, great location, very clean, and even a mini fridge and microwave in the room. Also, better tv selection and quality than some hotels I have stayed at for $200 a night. If every motel 6 was like this one, I would book motel 6 in all my travels. Thank you

Beautiful property at a prime oceanfront location. Room was clean and staff was attentive. LOVED the view. I was disappointed, however, with the condition of the grill. It was not maintained, the grate had a giant hole in it and it has been used as an ashtray for what appears to be several years, it was disgusting. I specifically chose this property over others because of that grill area and the option to cook meals there, which you didn't even want to do because the grill was disgusting. Overall a good stay, but I wouldn't plan to cook any meals on the grill, they should maintain it, or get rid of it

Place is very noisy, especially at night when your long-term tenants are out and about. The stairway smell like urine and feces. The garbage was overfilled and the hallways smelled of marijuana. The bed was comfortable and the staff cleaned the room every day. There were people just sitting in their cars with the cars, running at all hours of the night tents in the adjacent properties. The hotel is very old and in need ofmaintenance.

I just stayed 3 nights for the Arnold Expo and let me tell you it was one of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed at. When we first walked in, the room smelled very fresh and looked very clean, not like other motel 6s I’ve been to. The staff was the friendliest it could be, the area seemed very safe, and our next door neighbor had a pet raccoon in the window! around great experience, Would very much recommend!👍

This Motel 6 (Columbus West) is quite run down and in major need of renovation. Cold air could be felt coming in from the windows and the old heater had a hard time keeping the room warm. It wasn’t a very quiet place - heater made weird noises and it sounded like wind howling all night but it wasn’t windy. There is no where to put coats/clothes (no dresser, no closet), the fitted sheet on the bed was stained (I had to change it myself) and there was hair on the towel and toilet. Yuk! The refrig didn’t work and the TV kept going dark. Not a pleasant experience.
