Close to the airport with hourly shuttle during the day. Bath room is clean. Looks safe outside. No complaints for the price. A few things to note:
The is a small friday in the room. No microwave oven. No coffee maker. Coffee machine in the lobby ran out of coffee when we were there in the morning. Bed is old and not comfortable. Sound proofing is bad. The guest arrived late in the next room and we could hear the TV loudly past midnight. Pot smell near the entrance when we arrived.

Not a corporate hotel chain this is an independent. They require a $50 cash deposit and a $75 pet deposit. No do not disturb sign, and no phone in the room. Bed was hard as a rock. Bathroom is in serious need of repair. Hotel reeks of marijuana. Night staff is incompetent.

I will never ever stay at this hotel again!!!!

Front desk was sweet as pie with the sweet old lady before but acted like I stole something from her when it was my turn.
False advertisement saying there's shuttle service and parking we as $17 and it's only $8 online I saw. I believe it was advertised as $7/day. I didn't even need a full day I needed 10 hrs & a friend was coming to pick it up. She put me right by the highway and the halls reeked of weed badly. She must not have heard me when I said 1st floor when asked 1st or 2jnd cuz she snapped and asked again like I was ignoring her when it's quiet the opposite. What is with the locals here. A full day of dealing with nasty energy from these people everywhere. Great holiday cheer.

Reception was lukewarm. I asked for a shuttle to the airport at 3am; I was flatly told no shuttle until 7. This was not mentioned on their website. Coffee pot was dirty and had a used coffee pod in it. No tissues, couldn’t get the TV to work. Overall, not a comfortable stay

Didn’t know about the $100 CASH ONLY deposit until I got to the front desk to check in. Shuttle to the airport only runs during certain hours. The whole reason I booked there was so I could have a shuttle to the airport for my flight And I wasn’t able to. Very misleading

We called for the complimentary airport shuttle at @10:45 pm and we were at the assigned post for pickup at 10;50 pm. The shuttle bus did not stop and drove right by. We waited until a few minutes after 11pm for the bus to come by again and stop for us then called the motel 6 and they said the bus was done for the day! We had to spend $24 US for a taxi to motel. This is terrible service!!!

Bad things:

Outside security doors do not lock.
Next visit will pay the extra few bucks somewhere else for better security.

This motel is super bare bones. No microwave or coffee maker in the room. No hooks in the bathroom and shampoo wasn’t in the room but I was able to get some at the front desk. There was coffee and hot water available in the lobby but the hot water was in an old coffee carafe that had not been washed so brown flakes came out with the water. When we pointed it out the receptionist made a new pot but hadn’t cleaned the vessel so once again the water had particles floating in it. Luckily the head housekeeper stopped by our room later and gave us our own coffee maker so we could make our own hot water. The morning receptionist seemed like she couldn’t be bothered. She was barely attentive and just seemed to have a bad attitude. We were very grateful for the extra effort the head housekeeper took to make sure we were accommodated.

We always stay at motel 6 because we travel with our dog and it's just easier. Usually they are clean but this one was very disappointing. The light in the bathroom didn't work which probably was a good thing because even in the dark I could see how dirty the walls were. The floors were sticky and the flooring was peeling up and lifted, the light switches were dirty and sticky, I had to move the coffee pot to the bathroom to plug it in. I felt very uncomfortable because of the grossness of the room and the halls smelled like a combination of marijuana and urine along with people just putting there garbage in piles outside of their rooms. Very disappointing!

I called 14 times to get through to a live person to get transportation to the Motel 6. Was given a lame excuse as to why she could not answer the phone. We didn’t get a room and just stayed in there. I made arrangements for transportation to the airport the following morning we got a driver who not only did not wear her seatbelt. She was speeding more than 15 miles over the speed limit, and then announced that she was going to run the red light. She was highly agitated and use profanity when apologizing for her attitude, it left everyone silent because we were all afraid of getting backlash from the driver the driver was also the night staff and the cleaning lady and everything else. It was a horrible, horrible horrible situation. I don’t even know what to say other than I will never stay there again

Scammers

No one there to check us in when we arrived after midnight. We waited for about an hour before deciding to stay somewhere else. As two young women we didn't feel safe. When I called the next day to try and get a refund, I was told that the front desk person checked us in a half hour before we even set foot on the property. Because we were fraudulently checked in, they are saying we stayed the night and are refusing a refund.

Terrible stay! Room was in awful condition — no hot water, no WiFi, and the TV didn’t work. Their phone numbers don’t work, so you can’t reach anyone for help. Front desk staff were rude and unresponsive. The fridge and microwave were filthy, outlets were useless for charging devices, and airport pickup/drop-off was a nightmare with long waits. Avoid this place at all costs!

My goodness...where do I start? I understand this is a Motel 6, but based off of the photos it seemed like a good idea to give it a try.

The pictures provided of the property are either extremely outdated or staged very well. The staff was pleasant...and that's about the most positive thing I can say about this experience.

We checked in and went to our room. We did not have our requested queen room, but a double - mind you we checked in around 3 PM. There was a powerful smell in the stairway and hallway near our room. The room itself was clean and in overall good repair. The troubling piece was the addition of metal pieces near the door lock on the hallway side of the door - obviously in place as some type of security against unauthorized entry. Speaking of unauthorized entry - the exterior door of the property near the rear parking lot did not lock or secure in any way closed. ANYONE can walk in and out of the property.

We were automatically disappointed with our choice to reserve a room at this property, but we decided to give it a try and we left to go shopping and have dinner.

When we returned we encountered what we believe to have been a \"working girl\" in the rear parking lot, with her extremely emaciated looking friend. There were also a number of people in the rear parking lot.

We checked out and went to a nicer hotel. We were denied any refund, even for our four UNUSED nights. Do yourself a favor and avoid this property.

The hotel was OK. It was clean and tidy. It had a free shuttle to the airport which is a plus. Check-in staff were friendly but unbelievably slow. There are no restaurants within walking distance that I could see. The biggest disappointment was there was no hot water for the shower. May have been an isolated instance im not sure ?? I waited a long time but no hot water. Still, outside of the hot water issue and the lack of nearby restaurants it was a comfortable and reasonably priced motel. 3 out of 5. Would have been a 4 if there was hot water lol

We tried to take the shuttle from the airport. It never showed and when I called I was put on hold immediately without anyone actually talking to me. I ended up getting an Uber. That defeats the purpose of a free shuttle.
The bed spread had cigarette burns in it. But it had been washed.
The bathroom and towels were clean. Very small room. I did like the Vinyl floors it made it appear cleaner.

When I called for the hotel shuttle they told me they could not find my Expedia reservation, so I had to rebook. Then they gave me a phone number for the shuttle which did not work, so I took a cab. When I got to the hotel, I gave them my Expedia reservation and it was in their system, so I had them cancel the one I just made. The staff was patient and fixed everything. It was very frustrating.

First, I must give kudos to their shuttle service which was excellent. Once at the facility, the desk clerk was delightful. The only foid in the area is a gas station or a taco truck. Nearest fast food was a Taco Bell, almost 2 miles away. The room looked like it was decirated 50 or mire years ago and mot ipdated. The floor, while clean, were old fashioned and tirn vinyl tiles, and the rest of the decor matched. The shower... when i went to use it in the morning, did not work! I shared that info on check out, and instead of offering any kind of accomodation, I was given an apology. I'm a 77 year old widow. If my wife was still with me, I never would have heard the end of having booked this place, and she would have been right!

This hotel was a real learning experience for my kids. They got to learn about second hand smoke, sex-work, drug trafficking, and dumpsters being used to blockade all of the broken exterior doors. That was just getting to our room from the \"lobby.\" We'll see what the night holds for us. Sirens? Stabbings? Shootings? If you are already into all of these things, please note that you should still not stay here because they are all done better elsewhere.

UPDATE: Then, at 10:38 PM, my kids got to learn about evacuations because all of the building's alarms went off. We got to see squatters, sex workers, thwir clients, unhoused people, stray animals, and even a couple of paying guests milling through the hallways, emptying 1st floor rooms out of the windows, and... finally... one employee made their way to the front after 10 minutes of sirens, fire trucks, and other commotion.
