There was no key card entry to outside doors so anybody could enter the facility. It was clean and there weren't any problems but the neighborhood could lend itself to mischief.
Definitely do not go here no laundry it takes forever to get your cash deposit I had to drive back with diesel being $5 and get $30 cause they said someone would check room in morning and no it was afternoon . Charged almost double for extra day . Never again
the motel smelled . no smoking allowed but you could smell . trash outside was over flowing and customer service was really poor i had to talk to someone on like a video call. he wasn't even on property would not rent a room here if it was the only motel ever
The check-in process has you use a kiosk, even with an employee at the desk. The hallways had a funky smell and hadn't been swept in probably weeks.The room was okay, not particularly dirty. The firmest mattress I have ever tried to sleep on, no give whatsoever under body weight. We checked out at 10:30, no snow plow had done the parking lot. There was 8-9" of overnight accumulation.

I saw bugs and the shower wasn't very clean..but other than that It was fine I just prefer carpet on the floor
There is noone on staff. You walk in and talk to a person on a screen. The only vending machine is a pop machine so I paid $3 and the bottle of Dt.Dew I got was EIGHT MONTHS EXPIRED. Had there been someone on staff I might have been able to get what I paid for. There was also screaming children until after midnight in the next room. There was also someone with a barking dog when pets were not supposed to be allowed. Had there been staff to deal with any of these issues it would have been nice. I will never stay at another Motel 6.

The staff was fine but we didn’t have enough towels for three guest and it wasn’t a comfort that Rockford Illinois has high crime rate in the entire state so I recommend people check out information be aware of your surroundings. And there was no shampoo

Shower looked like someone shaved a dog and didn't clean up behind themselves. Also had to use a kiosk to check in with some creepy guy that barely spoke English and couldn't make a key. Just terrible all around
