I reserved a non-smoking room and paid for it in advance and noted that it would be a late check in. We got there around 9:30 ish or later and the clerk gave us a smoking room! Not only that but also in an area that was behind the motel where it was crowded, no parking and not so good characters walking around. One gal was hunched over her trunk, trying to hide something, a dude with hoody on hanging out on a corner and some shady business happening in the corner of parking lot. It was enough to say that I wanted a refund and dodge the heck outta there BUT hubby got us a different room that the clerk offered us earlier when she checked and all rooms were booked. We got a remodeled room and the stay ended up not being too bad. Slept thru the night in a comfortable room. They had issues but in the long run, it all worked out.

Never again
When I entered the check in “lobby”, first thing I noticed was the “if you are being sex trafficked” sign. We were “upgraded” to two beds and then went to our room. Police were doing surveillance across the street by the broken down motor home and trailer. Got in the room and the smell was horrible, don’t even know what it was. When I turned on the sink, the floor got wet, so I looked and the pipes under the sink were broke so they just poured onto the floor. Next up bathroom…turned on the fan/light switch (all in one) and started to look strong to see why the bathroom was filling with the stench of pot…very strong! Let’s see…I did feel bad for the family with multiple children living in the next room. Not only for their circumstances, but the youngest almost got hit in the parking lot and was trying to get into our room. Anyway, we went to a concert that night and returned late. We ate our drive thru food in the car because I knew if I went in the room to eat, knowing the smell, I’d lose my appetite, so we ate in my car around midnight. Low and behold, not even two minutes into eating, we watched a huge drug deal occurring right in front of my car (on the road by the motor home and trailer)…we feared for ourselves at that point. We waited and basically ran to our room and locked the door, hoping no one would notice us. We were woken at least twice from car alarms in the parking lot that night. Ummmm…yeah

Specifically booked a non smoking room, and of course they only had smoking rooms left. The room reaked of cigarettes and the window was not one that can be opened. There were stains of some sort on the edge of the tub and a hole I assume was punched into the bathroom door. Will never stay here ever again.

Do not stay here or use hotels.com
My hotel room had bed bugs and neither Motel 6 nor hotels.com would refund me for the two nights I could not stay there BECAUSE OF THE BED BUGS. Do not use this hotel, and book from somewhere besides hotels.com. They will not help you get your money back no matter what happens.
