Decent beds, very friendly staff. Bath a little dirty. For a game, for a couple of guys just looking to crash, fine. Wouldn't bring a wife though.

For 200.00 a night my expectations of the maintenence of the rooms should have been better. The use of cleaning with bleach needs to be evaluated. The smell was so strong in the rooms could really hurt someone. I was a Asst GM for Marriott and not that I am comparing but the room should have been better. Also making us stand there while checking to see if we damaged the room for over night stay was appalling. Will never recommend staying at the brand of hotel would have been better sleeping in the car.

Cheap, but don’t have high expectations.
Truth be told, I wasn’t expecting much for it being a motel 6….what I did expect or at least hoped for was a clean room that was at least put together. Floor trim was coming off the wall & for it to not smell like moisture the night of checkin / next day. Room smelled of bleach morning of checkin, possible water leak???
