This was by far the dirtiest motel 6 I’ve ever stayed in. There was black pubic hair all over the bathroom! Dried pee and pubic hair all over the toilet and shower, floors, and sinks. There was even hair and stained blood in the sheets and towels. When I went to the front office to complain, G.M. only offered me a new towel. I was so upset by the next morning, I demanded my room to be cleaned. They were not kind about it but did follow through. Also, my key kept deactivating and he kept asking me when I was checking out and was very rude saying, “I remember you.” I did ask during check out if there was some kind of compensation for all the inconveniences and he said he didn’t know and would call me if he could do anything. Radio silence. When a room is so gross that your young children refuse to shower, notice dried boogers on the wall, and hair everywhere, you know it’s bad.

We were unable to stay longer than 45 minutes due to the strong smell of cigarettes and the overall unsanitary condition of the room. This was one of the dirtiest motels I have ever seen. The shower appeared unclean and had not been properly washed. There was hair everywhere, the beds had large stains, and the floor was covered in dust. To make matters worse, the door connecting to the next room was unlocked, and we could clearly see the other guest, which raised serious privacy and safety concerns.
