Pay a bit more and stay elsewhere
Room was very dirty. Low water pressure making taking a shower almost impossible. Shower water would literally reduce to a few drops if neighboring rooms used their water. When trying to call front desk, phone was dead. This is the first time we’ve ever stayed at a place so run down.

Would not stay here again.
One of the beds didn’t have a fitted sheet on it. They used a regular sheet to cover the mattress, but it kept slipping off. We had to ask for towels daily. Housekeeping never came by. We asked the front desk, and they said they charge an additional $45/night if you want housekeeping. Otherwise housekeeping only cleans your room after you check out. We were never informed of that when we booked the room or when we checked in. The ice maker was broken, so you had to get ice from the front office. The people above us were jumping and walking around until 2am. When we asked the front office if they could ask the family to be more respectful of people sleeping below them, the office did nothing.

Very unexpected
The room next to me made too much noise and I heard every foot step and door closing. Building must not be sound proof. The room next to my room also has smokers smoke outside my room. Very inconvenient especially when I had requested for non smoking! The refrigerator leaked water on the floor as well. The bathroom sprayed on me whenever I flushed the toilet. Very unsanitary. Shower was very slow with its flow….had to waste a lot of time waiting while showering with a slow working shower.

Uncomfortable Stay
There were no blankets on the bed, only 1 sheet... literally. There was a hair from someone else on the clean towels. The shower flooded the entire bathroom floor any time you turn the water on.

This place is absolutely gross.
It was the worst motel 6,'s I've ever been to. And I've been to plenty bad ones. The room was filthy the floors were dirty there were even stains and hair on the sheets. I got in late I was exhausted and then had to go through the rigmarole changing room. Then my new room the bathroom floors were gross there was dirt all over the floor, it hadn't been mopped, and it was a cold winter night and the bedding was inadequate to stay warm. The staff was rude and refused to give me a refund. I'm going to call the health department and I'm going to call the chamber of commerce on these people please do not in future recommend this motel 6.

An older property the room shows some wear and tear, but generally pretty clean and well kept. The staff is always very friendly and helpful. The location is walking distance from the convention center and a short drive to Lake access or shopping. The price for rooms is competitive but reasonable for the area
