Room not clean. Door would lock from the inside, but would not when leaving the room. We reported the lock and were told “they would look into it”.

I like that it was a room available at that time since I had to get off the road from traveling all day. I didnt like that the two rooms i got wasn't cleaned, especially the bathrooms in both rooms and the beds. We literally slept with our clothes on and didn't get much sleep and checked out at 4:30 am instead of 11 am because we wasnt comfortable

We had someone try to get in our room because office staff had given them our room key. There was dirty food trays under the beds. Got no sleep because at 1:30AM the neighbors decided to throw a fiesta. Then at 5AM, a woman started screaming at the top of her lungs and the cops were called. We felt unsafe and will never stay at a Motel 6 again.

Dirty and uncleaned sheets
When i pulled my comforter back, I noticed that there were dog paw prints on my sheet. I am not posting them here because they would be difficult to see in a re posted pic. Either they were not bleached and checked or they were not even cleaned to begin with. This is a very negative thing for a motel.

Not worth the trouble
I chose Motel 6 since it was close to the location that I was working. Check in was easy. When I entered the room, I was met with a smokey smell. I can only assume that the outside smokers came in through the air conditioner vent. After I used some of my febreeze the smell in the room was tolerable. There was no tissues in the room and very little toilet tissue in the bathroom. No extra toilet tissue was in the room and a call to the front desk was placed. When I climbed into bed to turn on the TV I noticed that it was unplugged so I had to get up and plug it back in. My overall experience here was not good, but I can say the bed was comfortable.
