I am mostly worried about bed bugs and safety. I have gone to this hotel a few times in different rooms and I did not find any bed bugs, nor have I brought any home. The area is relatively safe and they have security cameras. I traveled with my dogs and the staff are always nice.

Cold shower temperature for the $253.00 I paid for 2 night that includes the $69.99 dollars for the deposit. Also, I spoke the front desk about this and wanted to only be charged one night. To find another place to stay where I could take a comfortable shower for the amount I pay. Which she said since it’s past the check out time I could not do so. Then I asked if I could be compensated a discount for the poor services. Which she replied the owner is out of town but I can get back to you. The next day when I was checking out of the Motel 6, she says no discount could be given when she checked with her management.
