I took a bath and paint was peeling off and floating around in the tub. They supplied one bath towel so I had to go to the front desk to get more and all they gave me was a bath towel that felt like sandpaper, and a bath mat. No hand towels no wash cloth. The hotel has a significant amount of guests who live there and we were put across the hall from a mentally ill person who was in the hallway screaming for several hours with what sounded like a toddler screaming back.
The room was extremely dirty, food left in the refrigerator from previous guests, hair and dirt in the bathroom and on the floors, towels and microwave were filthy, sheets and furniture had burn holes, ac was missing the front venting so you could see right inside of it. We ended sleeping in the car in the parking lot.

OK for one night stay. Watch your six.
The bathroom door was broken near the floor. The security chain was broken and didn’t work. There was blood on the walls. No breakfast just coffee. Lotta strange characters hanging out.
Staff was responsive and friendly. But room was dirty—there was garbage under the bed, food (I hope it was just food) on the wall, and no towel rack in the bathroom.
Hotel room was not clean enough for the price of the room. The toilet didn’t flush properly which was disappointing and a mouse was able to enter my room through the space underneath the door and that was disappointing as well. The location was very convenient which was a plus.
Was offered Meth when I arrived. No one was at the front desk until 20 minutes, thankfully it took that time to see this place was full of druggies living their full time including prostitutes. I left right away. Expedia should remove this crackhouse and compensate this poorly run motel 6. Very scary.
For the overall price it was what you paid for. For a kings bed at $125 the sheets were clean and the bed was made. There was crumbs on the counter and hair on the table and counter space. I wiped down everything with cleaning products and got no grime. I'd say it's just a little run down and needs a paint job. But you get a safe place to rest, ac, and a room. Overall, with a tight budget I would stay again.
Not the very worst I've stayed at, but wouldn't stay there again. Found a cockroach crawling up the wall within a few minutes, the pillows were super thin, and there was an overall stench in the place.
