For a motel being in Delta Park it is not a bad place to stay. The employees seem friendly enough and they are helpful when you need some extra help. It is one of a few motels left that you can still smoke in. All the smoking rooms are pretty much stained with the smell of smoke so I would recommend getting a noon smoking room and just going out side for a quick smoke. There is security that patrols the parking lot every so often but they are very unprofessional and rude. I was smoking in my car and the security vehicle pulled up in front of me. The security guard didn't even ask me if I had a room there he started yelling me how I can't camp in my vehicle on the property and that I was kicked out of the motel and the parking lot. I told him I had a room there and he still seemed to be very pushy and didn't even apologize. I understand the area isn't the greatest but that didn't come across very professional at all. Besides that my stay was enjoyable and the actual motel staff weren't rude at all. They actually apologized for the security guard and said they would make sure that wouldn't be an issue for the remainder of my stay. Oh they also allow animals as well for a small fee.

The area isn't the greatest so make sure you lock your doors and bring your valuables into your room with you. They do have security who occasionally patrol the parking lot but they aren't much help

BUYER BEWARE. We stayed here one night because it was all that was available as we were passing through close to the day of the eclipse, and, mostly, because it had pretty good ratings for a Motel 6. What a DUMP! The beds were FILTHY. When I first saw the room, I wondered if the sheets had even been changed. I took a photo when we first entered. You can see the shredded mattress cover in one of the photos. One of the queen beds was noticeably bowl-shaped and, when we sat on it, we could hear a thick plastic squeaking noise. Every.single.time one of my kids moved in the night, I could hear it. The mattresses are either so ancient that they're sunk in in the middle or they are so filthy that they have to encase them in thick plastic. Probably both. When we left the next morning, I pulled back the sheet on the mattress and the mattress cover (what was left of it...) was FILTHY. There were biggish black particles on it. They weren't moving and they were bigger than I thought bed bugs were, so I'm really hoping they weren't bed bugs. But it was totally disgusting. It's obvious the owner does not put any money or effort into keeping this property up. The ice machine was supposedly out of order. I asked for a hair dryer in the morning and was told, "They were all stolen." There is no way I would pay ANYthing for a room at this hotel again. NB: The area is sketchy & feels unsafe. There is a horse race track behind the hotel. Maybe that's why there are so many reported issues w/ car break-ins.

  • Nicole Boychuk

One of the worst stays I’ve ever had. The room was disgusting, it was like the housekeeping decided that it was “clean enough” from the last person who stayed there, made the bed and left. We got a two bed suite but ended up only using one bed because the second bed was so dirty with multiple stains, hair, crumbs. Bed comforter had cigarette holes in it. The bathroom soap was already used. THEN overnight, we woke up to a woman banging on all the doors around 2am, yelling to be let in. Then a man started yelling at her. This went on for around 10 minutes. After that, I was awake and could hear a couple fighting and the women getting slapped. Pulling up to the motel, I see two women run into the hotel both cracked out with black eyes to drop something off. Front desk staff outside smoking and not wearing uniform (though they were pleasant enough) Motel 6 or trap house? I don’t think they know the difference. I should also note that I stayed at a different Motel 6 earlier in the week and it was 100x better than this one. No standards here! Location isn’t even that close to the airport. Still a 15 minute drive. Motel is in a bit more of an industrial area, so not many businesses around. A lot of weirdos wandering the parking lot.

Our 5 day stay was really good. All the front desk people were very kind and helpful. The rooms were really clean. I was worried about my car because of the area but the motel staff has cameras for the parking lot and they made our visit feel safe even though its not in the best area. I was honestly surprised how good our stay was because i was hesitant at first. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a cheap motel for a night or longer. I want to give a big thanks to jessica, she was so nice and helpful and always asked about our baby girl thats in the hospital. She made us feel welcomed. I also want to give a big thanks to the man the works nights, i think his name is sir? He was always in a good mood, very positive and just brought a good vibe. He even wears chrismas lights around his neck for the holiday spirit. There was a few times people would walk in without a mask and he would politely ask them to put on a mask and even when they would be a little disgrunted about him asking them he would still be really nice about it. When people would come in jessica and sir would always say hi. I truly thank them both so much and this place will be my go to if i need a motel to stay at.

Daytime front counter staff is extremely rude. Motel is very strict for no reason. Left my mask in my room on accident when I was taking my dog out and despite most of the staff not wearing their masks properly or at all most of the time, the lady at the front counter was rude about telling us we needed one. I completely understand, but no need to have an attitude. Also you can't leave your pets alone in the room. My dog is trained and also crated normally if I go anywhere. I haven't been able to work because I can't take my dog with me. Also no drain stoppers for the bath tubs, which is strange. The cleaning staff here is pretty nice and polite though, and the rooms are decent. That's about it though. I know no one cares but we're going back to the Motel 6 on Powell. At least everyone is friendly and there aren't any weird rules, it's also cheaper and we don't get treated like trash by the front desk. I'm not trying to hear "CAN I HELP YOU?!" when I'm walking in.

We have stayed at your motel off and on for 12+ years now. Staff is always friendly, we like the location, rooms are usually decently clean. We choose your motel also because you offer smoking rooms. However, we were grossed out in the morning to find a partially smoked cigarette butt, that was not our brand, in between the top sheet and next blanket. No, it hadn't been through the wash. The bed was nicely made up as if it had fresh sheets. It's common knowledge that most motels don't often change out the top comforter. We work around that by removing it first thing. But we've always trusted that the sheets are washed after every single guests stay. Who knows what could be shared with unknowing guests? How many guests slept in the same bed without the sheets being replaced with clean ones? My hope is that this was just a one time mistake and not common practice. I don't normally complain, but felt that this should be brought to someone's attention. All said, we will most likely stay there again, but with some hesitation.

First off must I say Jessica in the front lobby has been an angel! I arrived a little earlier and was greeted with a warm welcome regardless. My room was deep cleaned beforehand. Walking into the room I couldn’t believe it was a motel 6! Beautiful flat screen tv lovely bathroom with a adorable soaking tub. The room smells fresh and clean. Like a day after Sunday morning cleaning lol. Parking was easy and very close to the door. My lovely dog honeybee is very happy with the dog area for her to roam and go potty. The inside is so clean and their vending machine has more options available and cheaper than other hotels that cost more to stay in! I am honestly happily shocked to say I feel safe and comfortable in my first ever motel 6! Jessica up front made me feel even more comfortable by telling me security is here during the night till early morning and someone is always up front 24/7. :)

This was my first stay at a Motel 6. Location was great for what we needed - access to the PIR. And the A/C worked well. But that's where the positives ended. The hotel is very noisy - nothing can be done about this as its a construction issue. No shampoo/conditioner available - I was told to purchase from the vending machine, however it was empty. Is this a Motel 6 thing? No iron (OK I get this one); no hair dryer in the room and the one to borrow from the front desk was never there. All of these things are manageable IF I were made aware beforehand. Cigarette burns (it was a non-smoking room...) on the sheets, comforter and cover and pillow cases. Most staff was unfriendly or at least very cold (one woman in the mornings was quite nice however). Maintenance was good - the toilet flapper broke and was fixed almost immediately. The lack of staff present meant we'd get a call each day asking if we can avoid room service; worked out fine for us, but still an annoyance to be asked each day.

  • Alaina Grade

I stayed here for one evening at the end of June 2018. I checked in and was greeted by a really nice lady with black hair who was very patient and understanding when I told her I was a little concerned about leaving my car parked in the lot since I had just moved out of my apartment. She assured me that someone was on the property 24/7 and my car would be safe (It was!). I got a non-smoking room for $80 (including fees) with a queen bed on the second floor. The entire building has been recently renovated and the rooms were beautiful. A fresh coat of paint, new structures (a cool desk and closet fixture that also held a TV and was next to a mini-fridge), and laminated wood floors. I slept really well - there wasn't too much noise. I easily got in and out of the motel which was great because I needed to get on the road early in the morning. Would definitely recommend this motel to anyone visiting the area in need of a place to stay briefly on their way in or out of Portland

  • MJ “AZ1087653” Smith

When I called to book my reservation the lady who spoke with me proved she didn't have much customer service experience. I had a redeye flight and said I got in at 5:50 am. She told me that if I checked in before 7 I would be charged for an additional day. I was a little taken aback and said I would sit and wait till 7. When I arrived at the establishment the gentleman behind the counter told me the reason the first person didn't mention, they update the computer system starting around 6 am and to check in I would need to wait till the system updated. Had the first rep been a bit less abrasive and told me the reason why I'd have been happier. Aside from her lack of customer service, this place is exactly like any other Motel 6. I have a dog I travel with and it is nice to have a place I can bring him with no problems. The place is clean, has basic amenities, and GrubHub delivers here. So I can't complain. It is simple, affordable, and allows pets.

  • Shawna King

Do not stay here if you value your life. Stayed here for one night with my friend at the end of our vacation due to the proximity to the airport. The whole experience was a nightmare. The room was disgusting - - stained sheets, hair and crumbs in the bed, used bar of soap in the shower, etc. We ended up choosing the lesser of two evils by sharing the slightly less disgusting bed. As we tried to get a few hours of rest before our early flight, we were woken up throughout the night by disruptive guests screaming and banging on doors. Most of the other guests at the motel were sketchy and awake all hours of the night. The area is also pretty sketchy and there's no effort to provide safety or security to guests. I could go on forever, but trust me, it's not worth saving a few dollars. This Motel 6 will leave the light on for crackheads!

The staff was friendly. The room was clean with the exception of the corner of the wall where it met the tub. It looked liked it had been missed in cleaning for a long time. The hallway was not vacuumed. It had outdoor detritus not cleaned up. The two biggest problems were the room was charged to my credit card hours before the cancellation deadline and we discovered that the door did not latch. This was discovered as we were leaving to go downtown and had a lyft waiting. They were going to move us to a different room (very inconvenient with 3 people and a cat) when my granddaughter found that if you lifted up on the door hard enough it would latch and lock so we stayed the one night. When I talked to the front desk staff later I discovered that they knew the door didn't latch. They said they knew and that the manager knew about it too. That's bad.

  • Brian Collins

DANGEROUS!! A man broke into my room after midnight. He used an electronic key from the hotel. I chased him out into the hall, he ran to the elevator. The manager was called, said she would call the police and security. I asked for a new room. 10 minutes passed, I exited the room to check on a new room. The Burglar and his Accomplice were coming out of the room straight across from mine. More yelling. " Where did you get the key!?". No answer, they left. No new room. Asked for the owner to call me, NoCall. Portland Police say they responded to more than 100 calls at this place since the first of the year. Very DANGEROUS!!

  • Leonidas Montenegro

It was a very bad experience on this hotel. At midnight, a bug bit in one of my legs. When I took a close look at the bed sheets, I found several hairs from another person, dry blood, and several small particles all over it.I took pictures of all of it. I had a lot of pain and hitching on my leg. I use my own sheets to try to sleep. I reported it to the main desk in the morning. After many calls, they said that they would not reimburse any amount because I did the repot in the morning, not at 1:00 am. when it happened. The next day, I will have a business's show. My priority was sleep and rest. I didn't sleep well. Also l, I paid insurance for the night room, but it didn't help.

  • Brian Fredette

A motel of last resort. Although the bed and bath were updated the room itself (doors, windows etc) were in poor shape. Because of excessive heat in the area at the time, we ended up paying over $100 for a single night. Because we had our dog with us, ee were forced to stay on the 3rd floor. That floor is reserved for pets and smokers. The room smelled of old cigarettes and through the night we could smell marijuana. The most disappointing feature is the location. I feel sorry for the hotel owner and the staff. The entire area around the property is surrounded by homeless camps. It wouldn't be so bad, but the residents of the camps had trashed the area with garbage, abandoned vehicles, used mattresses, and general debris.

  • Kevin Bow

First, I paid for a 5day stay here, I go to work the next day and when I get back all my belongings have been stolen by the housekeepers. The management acts like they don't care about anything. Only slightly later the same day I was about to say something about obvious screaming and a woman being beaten that could be easily heard from the stairwell. But when I get to the lobby there is literally two large pit bulls fighting with actual blood happening. To say the least my stay has been unpleasant and it feels very unsafe here and just crazy. Theres often no one at the front desk. Perhaps because they are too busy going through ppls rooms and stealing. Just surreal.

Love this place never had bad exsperance here and have stayed here some where in the 25 to 35 times in past 2 years. Great place with clean rooms, smoking rooms are available and seem to be clean as well. The amazing staff from from end desk to house keeping are always ready to help you, smiles are plentiful here. They make you very comfortable from check in to check out. Great place to lay you head...plus they will leave the lights on for you!

Hello dear motel 6: me and my wife came to this hotel during the dog show.i was advised I shouldn't use this hotel even tho it's very close to the dog show n airport.we decided to give you a try because u can't always trust word of mouth .and I'm glad we did every one was so nice Jay, Diane and all of house keeping . First night there Jay rushed from behind the desk to hold doors open for us when we moved in all of our competition equipment.he also greeted us every night and seemed to really care how competition went and Diane was busy but she always greeted us with a smile .people where great hotel was very nice this was a great trip. I spent all weekend correcting people about this hotel.

  • Ellen Holsinger

Motel 6 advertises itself as a budget motel, and that is exactly what it is. Definitely no frills. But it was a CLEAN budget hotel. No mini shampoo or hand lotion, but there were little bars of hand soap, more than adequate, and clean towels. The woman at the reception desk was warm and friendly. I was looking for a someplace cheap for a quick overnight stay. The bed was not luxurious, but it was not uncomfortable, either. It was just fine. No breakfast but we got the senior discount, something like $77. And there were shops and restaurants just a block or two away. I read a couple of terrible reviews online that did not match my experience at all. I would stay there again in a heartbeat.

  • Dale ESTES

Overall service was good and staff was friendly. On a negative note we did have a Nintendo Switch Console /Charger taken from our room. We reported it immediately to the front desk. The following day we were contacted by a manager and said they checked the security cameras and talked to the maid. The management said they saw nothing on the cameras and the maid did not see it. The console had been left on the bed. Based on what the cameras revealed, the maid is the only person having entered our room while we were gone. The console/charger and downloaded games had a value of $560. We also filed a theft report with the Portland Police Department. Otherwise we were pleased with the rooms.

  • Vexing Cat

The staff was great, the rooms are clean. Not at all sure, I like the laminate floors and lack of comfortable places to sit. I was reminded of the many hospital rooms I have endured. Again, the staff are great, the rooms could feel a lot homier, based on the contents of the room, or rather lack of furnishings, I felt the room was overpriced by a large margin. Staff perfect, room, less than perfect. If I was scoring this on the room its self and not room and staff, I would have given it a 2 rating. For nearly $94.00 night, I would expect a room furnished in such a way, that it doesn't echo. I may never warm up to the idea of hard floors, bare walls and no place to sit comfortably.

  • Paul Miller

When we checked in the attendant said our room cost was $30 more than my confirmation on my email. She said she couldn’t change it and the person doing the confirmation was probably not working there any more. Arguing did no good and I said I would write a bad review and she said that was fine so I paid the extra fee. The next morning when we checked out I talked with a better attendant who had me forward a copy of my email. She was very pleasant and helpful and issued credit to my card. Also, there were tiny ants crawling around on the table by our bed

I was skeptical about this hotel when I first pulled up. It’s in a very industrial area with a lot of activity from the homeless but it is hard to get away from that in Portland. Our front desk attendant Morgan was amazing. Very personable and by the time I left I felt like I had a new friend. The room was very clean and newly renovated. We stayed for 3 days. Housekeeping didn’t come into our room due to COVID (we prefer that anyways) but they gave us fresh towels and collected our garbage daily. I recommend staying here. It’s a bit of a hidden gem!

I've stayed here a few times as a visitor, and it's now my go-to motel when I need an affordable and quick stay-cation. Jessica at the front desk was a high-light of my most recent trip, working with me to modify my reservation and greeting me by name more than once. She keeps the motel environment feeling professional and safe, which can sometimes be an issue in budget motels -- but not here, thanks to the stellar employees on Front Desk. There was a slight issue with a shortage of pillows, but the great customer service made up for it.

It was a hundred + outside so we couldn't leave our pets in the car . We were very patient not making any complaints .

Homeless people roamed the parking lot checking every door handle all night. A trucks alarm went off every hour. Front desk is completely incompetent. Hotel was dirty and staff is clueless how to operate a hotel. My ol lady booked this for the weekend. I met her here after a motorcycle ride. We slept with our clothes on in the bed. It was so sketchy we only stayed 1 night. We slept in the Walmart parking lot the 2nd night on a air mattress I blew up with my bike. We felt better there than having our car alarms go off. Street right out front is homeless campers and tents. BEWARE!!!

  • Darrin Spokely

I don't know how much more I can talk to my stays here at Motel 6. They all have been uneventful but one. I am a smoker so the 3rd floor is where you will find me most stays but I have stayed on all floors. They all have been very clean. Even the smoking rooms up on the top floor are not that bad. They look very clean and I ensure you they are above the standard in our local market. They have assembled the best of the best housekeepers to maintain. A standard of cleaning. They don't skip things and will be here until all rooms are taken care of. Just great hard working crew.

  • Brooke Birdsall-Panit

Only one word needed, AMAZING! The reservation process was quick (makayla was awesome!) check in did not take nearly as long as other hotels and I was quite surprised to see how well the property was being taken care of. The room was SPOTLESS clean I couldnt even do a better job and besides a small scratch on paint here or there, there were no maintenance issues that I could see!Kudos to the manager for making this a great place to stay and for the front desk and housekeeping making it a clean and enjoyable hotel to choose. We will be coming back again, thanks guys!!

  • La Libra

The “micro refrigerator” was not working and I lost $70 worth of food. The manager gave me $44 dollars back… that was not okay with me since all of my food was wasted but it seemed like I had to take that or get nothing. That was only after I pushed back when told they are just ice boxes not refrigerators. Once I started asking everyone’s names and how to contact people above the manager I started to receive cooperation. It should not take that and I still would like to talk to someone!

The motel itself is very nice and clean. However, my wife and I spent 4 nights here and the entire time we had a very noisy neighbor who we as up all hours of the night. We complained to the front desk several times and nothing was done. We were woken up almost every night by our loud neighbor and her screaming kids. The desk even admitted to knowing she was leaving her children alone in the room and still did nothing. I wouldn't stay here again. Lousy customer service.

Very friendly staff. Even if they didn’t have an answer for you right away they were good about trying to find the person who could help. Very reasonably priced, clean room (minus a cigarette burn on the blanket). And surprised it’s a “hotel” not a motel. We ended up staying here for 1 week waiting on an apt. One of the front desk ladies told us a pricing secret that it’s much cheaper to book in the morning so we did that when we had to add nights and saved a lot of money! overall wonderful stay!

I enjoyed my stay at this Motel 6. My husband and I stayed here and were happy with our visit. The room was clean and everything that we requested. (Non smoking and pet friendly) It was close enough to Uber to and from to locations we had planned to go to. We were put in a very convenient and close room to the pet area as we had our dog with us. Water pressure in the shower was amazing. The wake up call we requested was right on time. Over all, good stay and I would recommend this Motel 6. :)

The front desk clerk Roxanne was truly amazing! She was so kind. I was leary about staying at this location but Roxanne reassured it was safe and also made me feel safe. I Will definitely be back.

Worst experience ever At first they gave us a room which was designed for disabled person though we were supposed to have a double bed room. later we found one bed was too small and it moves so much. To make thing worse , in the washroom there was hair in one of the towels, gross. Even their vending machine is old fashioned, does not accept cards!!!!!!! I have stayed in lots of motel 6 , but this experience is the worst one and changed my decision to ever stay in any of their motels

  • Krys Ashford

Very small dingy room. Bed spread had cigarette burn holes, odd when you're not supposed to smoke in or within 10ft of the building and the room is on the 3rd floor! The bathtub looked like someone had washed their muddy dog in it and no one wiped the outside of the tub down afterwards. There was more dust on the light shade and curtain than I can explain and the atmosphere in the place is what I would expect in a drug den. I definitely DO NOT recommend staying at this motel 6 EVER!

  • Ray K

More of a rating of the surrounding area..Beware of the shady characters, homeless and skeezy drug addicts in this area. My car was stolen and recovered on site with an arrest. A lot of abandoned vehicles around Schmeer Rd. by druggies needing rides and just dumping them. This area used to be really nice. But has really fallen. If you park here be very aware of your surroundings. Businesses need to band together to rid the area of shady characters.

You can hear everything going on outside and upstairs. Unknown screaming and shouting between a man and a women upstairs. Brutal sounds heard. Feeling unsafe to stay, no security at all.

I've booked this motel 6 about three times in the last year for vacations stays. The first time was an average experience. Nothing bad and everything went well.The last couple of times we've had the pleasure of being helped by Jessica at the front desk. She goes above and beyond each time to make sure we're satisfied with our stay. Stayed 2 more days and Monique was also helpful with booking those additional days. 5 stars hands down!

  • Ken Nuss

People are quick to do a bad review, but I found it to be a nice place. Beautiful landscaping on property, rooms remodeled & very nice, great TV, beds, great water pressure & clean. Adequate truck parking next door. Jessica @ front desk was very pleasant & accommodating. If you wanna complain about the homeless people call your local Democrat politicians

This place reminded me of the first hotel in Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. But not in fun cheeky way, more in a rapey scarey way. I've been in worse hotels, but not in America. Cheap prices, my truck wasn't broken into, and they worked.... but if you can afford more, go somewhere else. Hey, at least they had a bottle opener in the bathroom, I think they know their clientele.

This is a very nice facility. I asked for a top floor non-smoking room when reserving online, and the gal at the front desk was very apologetic that she had to put me on the 2nd floor, as the 3rd floor was all smoking. I responded that I was ecstatic and thought that was a great idea! My room is nicely updated, with laminate floors, good paint, nice fixtures and comfortable bed. I would certainly stay here again.

  • Michael Perkins

Despite the large homeless population hear the hotel they do a great job of keeping up the facilities and provide security in the parking lot overnights. Clean room and the majority of the staff are great folks. I didn’t appreciate being berated by one of the staff for forgetting my mask in my room especially since this staff member doesn’t ever wear a mask. Other than that I’ve had a great stay.

  • Joe Boro

I was surprised at how safe it felt. It is in what used to be an area of zombie motorhomes and tents with people building fire on the side walk. No place you'd even want to stop for a traffic light. City must have come in and cleared them to a new location.

Pretty dismal. Close to the racecourse and expo center, also close to homeless encampment. Rooms smelled of old cigarette smoke, bed spread had cigarette burns, door had a hole punched in it. It's not worth saving a few bucks. Spend a little more and stay somewhere (anywhere!!) else!

Staff was wonderful, service was great. But the accommodations were just so so. Had to move rooms due to leaky toilet (again, staff was great). No coffee in room and very limited in lobby. No real closet in which to properly hang things. Lights above beds are too bright - an adjuster would be good. Otherwise, beds were comfortable and room was nice. Finally, staff was great!

  • Michael Burger

Nina deserves a raise for being an outstanding receptionist. She's the best I've ever had, and I travel for work, staying at many hotels. She goes above and beyond and deserves recognition for her exceptional service!

- Why your desk lady's allowed to accuse men of doing things their not and messing their life? - Did you guys not learn from last time you was sued?
Noteworthy details
- Many homeless people. - Employee steal credit cards and official mail and things. - Close shopping places. - Restraurants down the road. - Much garbage everywhre.

  • david jalen

Garvin at the front desk was great. We stayed three nights (Thursday -Saturday). The maid did not visit our room Friday night-no clean towels or any service what so ever. Gavin gave us fresh towels for that night and made sure we had maid service the next night. The maid had entered in the log that she had cleaned our room Friday night.

It was ok. It could be more cleaner it smells like stale cigarettes, the front desk hostess wasnt very polite sorta rude but there was different hotess that waited on me one was super nice one was rude 9me was kind and the manager was rude! I would go back I just think they should get the smell of stale cigarettes eliminated.

  • Willow W

This place is so bad, And has gotten so much worse in so little time. Evil stuff is running rampant behind the front desk. They've started begging for reviews as well, so now the good reviews aren't even honest anymore.

Rooms were o.k and clean, but at the time I was staying here it was extremely hot. There was air conditioning and it stayed cool, but for some reason the staff would go into my room when I would leave and turn the heat up high. I thought this was kinda weird.

I have a long time friend who is having trouble in her marriage and she needed some rest and solitude so I thought that I would rent a room for her, this establishment made me feel like a criminal. Ive never been treated so poorly, she made me feel like at best A second class citizen. If I could give it

  • Dan Moore

It's an out-of-the-way motel, great if you need a night or two off the Interstate. No, its not a "nice" neighborhood. You might enjoy taking your dogs for a walk (especially K-9s), but unless you like leading kids around covering their eyes, leave them in the motel, and stay off the streets at night.

  • Heather Knight

I accidentally booked a smoking room and the front desk person was very kind and gracious and found me a non-smoking room. It was a great spot to rest our head for the night. It was clean and comfortable. There was a hole in the comforter, and the mattress cover...otherwise, the place was great.

  • Matt “PappaSmurf” Honeycutt

Phone in room was broken , Some broken furniture , The AC/Heater was great , fairly quite and worked better than expected. The hot water did not run out , linens were all fresh and clean, no bugs, nicely redone bathroom with corner tub/shower but no plug? ‍♂️ …

  • Stephen Massey

Mattress felt like a jail mattress. The pillows I think were feather ones but couldn't tell. Noisy and people wandering through the parking lit looking for who knows what. Everything about this place is scary. Floors were very dirty.

Any and every body that comes to your room most provide ID. Honestly, for some that's not a big deal, but some people would like privacy. It's not their business who visits once i PAY for a room. I'm responsible for whatever.

I was there for a one night stay on Dec/2nd in room 106. It was clean, they said we don’t have coffee maker, at midnight noisy and hit the doors also, smoke in non-smoke area. View to an Amazon storage with NO shopping in the neibourhood. I do NOT RECOMMEND

  • Jeni Fidler

Room reeked of cigarettes, bedspreads had numerous holes, the window curtain had cigarette burn hole, the shower curtain looked like it laid in the dryer for 3 days. I mentioned to the clerk and he laughed.
