I'm a blue-tag driver and I asked for a room with that in mind. Instead, I got a room halfway down the building. Two of the blue tag parking spaces were piled up with construction materials and a third space was regularly occupied by an employee's car that had no blue tag. I had to repeatedly ask for daily clean towels. It was cheap and now I know why.

Ever stayed at a hotel that was “remodeled” looked ok in photos, was cheap and you only needed a few hours of sleep so you booked it? Well that’s how we ended up here. As soon as we entered the lobby area there was a very, very intense smell of a scentsy burner. So strong like almost make you ill strong. But after being in the rest of the hotel it was probably to cover up the icky smell. Lady at front desk looked like she was wearing pajama pants. Once checked in we went to the elevator. That area smelled bad and the elevator worse. The room appeared ok and we took off for our event. Came back at 3am to catch a little sleep before hitting the road. Opened the door and 3 roaches of some sort scattered. Managed to step on two. One got away. Ick!!!! Didn’t walk on floor without shoes. The floor was junk too. Seems to be very cheap linoleum that was coming up and you could feel it move as you walked. Was anxious to get out of there in the am. Took quick shower. There was long hair that didn’t get cleaned off shower curtain prior to us getting the room So gross. By then I couldn’t wait to check out and get home to take a shower They had obviously replaced hall carpet and painted hallways in attempt to spruce up the place...it needs leveled and rebuilt. Paid $55 to stay here and would not stay again if someone gave me a free room. Actually I won’t ever stay in a Motel 6 again after seeing how they represented their rooms online vs actual. Pay more. Stay somewhere else! The scattering bugs should be enough to convince you. And if not the smells surely would. Hands down the worst hotel I’ve ever stayed in. Just can’t get the smells out of my head. Ugh. So gross…

We made the long trip to see an old Army buddy of my husbands. It was a 3-day trip and well worth it. The room was sparse and the floors were not carpeted. This is a plus for those who vacation with their pets. There is no breakfast. However, it is close to a Burger King and convenient.

Staff was friendly and professional, room was clean, pool available but didn’t use. Bed was comfortable, bathroom was on the small size and bathtub finish was chipping away. Free wifi was good. Stairways smelled like cigarette smoke and the property did their best to cover-up the smell in the hallways. Our room was quiet and we were well rested. I would stay again if the price was right. Close to shopping and restaurants and I-29.

This motel 6 was among the worst I have been in. The halls were dirty, the housekeeping was haphazard and the smells unpleasant. Our room was average but having to go through the common areas was nasty. The exterior areas were unswept and the trash cans overflowed. The receptionist was helpful but the overall sense was one where they were really skimping on maintenance.

Room and hallway smelled of cigarettes and a/c did not work properly as was very warm. Lots of stains in the room also. Shady characters standing outside looked like they had lived there for awhile. Was in a convenient location though and had an elevator. Room wasn't really worth the price. Front desk gal was very friendly.
