Got the non smoking side, super clean spacious rooms, and fairly secluded area. 3rd stay with motel 6 while going to land between the lakes. Will return, cheap clean stay will definitely recommend .

This hotel was not what this website advertised. I specifically filtered my search’s for a hotel with a pool and food options. This hotel had neither. The Hotel isn’t even a Motel 6 anymore. Most rooms were tore up and had demolished debris everywhere. Our room leaked water both nights we stayed. The shower clogged up and wouldn’t drain while showering and the light fixtures were about to fall out of the ceiling. Also the desk manager accused my husband of taking pictures of her friends truck ( who was currently living in said hotel. ) Absolutely most shady hotel I’ve ever been too.

This place was absolutely nasty! We could not stay at this place. When we walked into the hallway there was food or something all over the carpet. That was not a good way to walk in and want to stay at a place. We continued into the room. This has not been updated as stated and the room stunk. Someone had already used the toilet, and I would not step into that shower if someone paid me!! Beware!!!!

Shower and bathroom area was not the cleanest!! Should have been looked over. Towels were not white, thin and stained. For sure need new towels.
Bed comfort was good, 3 pillows for king. Need a couple more pillows. Parking lot to get there was difficult. Like a maze. No pool. No blow dryer. No shampoo. Bring your own.

The check in was painfully slow and disorganized. They put us in older units for people that smoke and had pets, even though there weren't very many people in the facility with many empty rooms. The light fixture over the vanity didn't work.So they had a haphazard table lamp , sitting there with no light bulbs in it. It took him about an hour and a half to find another light bulb , even though we needed two , that they ended up stealing from another room because they didn't have any light bulbs on in stock. Hole on the bedspread... It was a quiet place because it were hardly anybody staying there. Ask for the newer units...

The only things I would change are the size of the bathroom and maybe get an indoor pool and watch the pizza oven a little closer. Also, no free breakfast, coffee or shampoo in the room, you have to ask for it or go to the lobby for coffee. But it wasn't terrible and main lobby guy was cool and helpful

We have stayed here many times & everyone had been great. The last time we stayed here the fitted sheet was dirty. We slept with the top sheet over it. The next morning I notified the staff upon departure thinking I was doing them a favor by letting them know the sheets may not have been washed.
The next day the owner/manager called me & was very rude. He threatened me about leaving a bad review which I would not have done if he hadn't threatened me.
I'm disappointed this hotel will no longer be an option for us to stay. The amenities are not great but okay for the price.

Mixed Views

The main two things i would like to see is someone at the front desk for checking in and checking out. This is the first person you see as well as the last person you see when you depart. Instead, I had to go back to my car to get my phone to call a number at check in for him to come to the front desk. This was late afternoon, not late at night. I was given an obviously used key card cover with door key. That was gross! When I checked out, the same think occurred. I called and he told me I could just leave my key on the desk on the phone. That does not represent appreciation of your hotel guests at all! Secondly, have a grab and go breakfast would be great. Having coffee ONLY from 0600am to 1100am for your guests knowing there is nothing close around wouldve been good to know so we could've brought our own coffee pot. These things take away from the other positive aspects of your hotel.

Honest Review – Wouldn’t Stay Again

I stayed at this Motel 6 in Grand Rivers, Kentucky, last minute while driving home from a 14-hour trip to visit family. I was exhausted and just needed somewhere to rest and reset. I chose this location mainly because I noticed they don’t charge extra for dogs in the reviews, which I really appreciated—especially since I traveled with my pup.

That said, my expectations for a Motel 6—ESPECIALLY in BFE, Kentucky— were already low, and unfortunately, this stay still fell short. After getting somewhat settled, I noticed the room door looked like it had been previously kicked in. It was bent at the bottom, leaving a visible gap. I didn’t feel entirely safe, but I thought perhaps it would be fine for one night as I was very tired and didn't feel like making a fuss over it.

Next, I went to take a shower (after cleaning it with bleach), and the drain was clogged. The water filled up around 5–6 inches before I even got in. I called the front desk, and a younger staff member came by. He was somewhat polite but told me they couldn't move me to a different room. Despite them having open rooms, he said my dog might bark and disturb the other guests. I tried to assure him that the only time my dog might bark is when someone knocked on the door and that she wouldn't be an issue, however he told me they still couldn't move me.

I asked if I could pay extra to switch to a better room, and he agreed to check. He came back and said I could move a couple doors down for $20 more. I checked the
