This Motel 6 is completely run down. It is the worst one I’ve ever stayed in. Badly needs paint job inside and out. Also needs refinished floors, new beds, and new pillows. Beds are only twin size from what I could tell. (I saw three bedrooms.) and they’re hard as a rock. Definitely the biggest ripoff at $300/night I’ve experienced. in a motel. The management needs to develop some pride.

Enter at your own risk

I wouldn’t stay here if you have another option. The place looked nothing like the pictures. The bed appeared as if it had been slept in, with the sheets simply put back in place. The floor, nightstand, and table were dirty and had not been wiped down. I don’t know how they can justify charging $300 a night for this dump.

Staff super helpful and pleasant. Room was clean but lock on door flimsy and drafty. This place needs to be refurbished.

Way too expensive for a Motel 6.

This is a pretty basic Motel 6. Easy freeway access, staff was fine, it was clean but very basic. Bed and pillows were not very comfortable. If it was a cheap stay, it would be fine, but the price for what it is utterly ridiculous.

Amazing customer service

This was actually the second time I came to this hotel specifically because the customer service was so great the first time. This visit was a different person at the desk but still just as awesome both times.

Thanks Motel 6

I called the night before I checked in to request a certain room number. The front desk agent was busy with guests but apologized about the hold time and allowed me to reserve the room number that I desired. The 1night stay was comfortable and clean.
