1 working light
2 condoms $2.60
3 broken lights
4 stars its NOT going to get
5 times we tried to close the door, which wouldn't close until we stuck the do-not-disturb sign in the door jamb.

well...i guess it DID provide us a roof and 2 beds, just what we needed.

Haha this one star is solely for the fact that I can't give 0, and the hotel was only $50/night for a 2 bed, regular room. I am a realist, and went into this situation KNOWING I was staying at the ghetto Motel 6...

X-(..... X-(.....X-(..... X-(.....X-(..... X-(.....X-(..... X-(.....X-(..... X-(.....
But here are the reasons I am giving it 1 star INSTEAD OF the A-OK stamp of  approval for a deece regular 3-star establishment:
1.) We could not close our door due to the
     fact that it was missing pieces of metal
     in the frame. After doinf some McGuyver
     $h"t with our room key, we figured out if
     we stuck our hotel key where the door
     handle fits in so that it slides into place
     and pull the card out the door actually
     stays closed. TA-DAAAA! SHAMWOW!

2.) For a 2/bed room, they gave us 2 towels...
     both were hand towels. I wish I showered
     in purelle/bleach/scalding hot water before,
     during, and after my stay here--but they did
     not provide us with ANY real towels.

3.) None of the lights worked...Except the one
    over the bathroom sink. There were 4 fixtures;
     therefore, 75% of the lights didn't work.

4.) The smell.

Alright, I am done bashing this place...We checked in, went upstairs and changed, then drove to the city...Didn't come back until 5am, but I sat in the hallway talking with a friend until 630 or so. You see some shady/weird characters in the hallway at 5-6 in the morning lemme tell you!! We saw at LEAST 15 people. WTFFF

All things considered, we got the place just to leave our stuff somewhere and have a place to crash relatively close to our party spot...and it got that job done.

Oh. Check the super cool vending machine on the stinky smoking floor...There's a seedy box of condoms for only 2.60. DTF? Yuck, not here.

Okay, so it's a Motel 6. It's not super classy or extravagant, and everybody knows this. I've stayed at my fair share of Motel 6's, and I can usually count on a bed and clean sheets for a single night while traveling. Though, I must say, this particular one could barely do that.

They gave my room away upon arrival. Are you serious? I made my reservation a few days prior. I just drove 14 hours, I can't feel my legs, and you gave my room away? I stood in front of the plexiglass window, luggage in tow, for 20 minutes while the lady working there rummaged around, killing time before telling me she gave my room away.

Okay, fine. She miraculously finds me a room, and upon entering, I understand why it was the last. The carpet was damp. Clean, but damp, as if someone just shampooed the carpet. Of course, I didn't realize this until I took my shoes off and my socks got soaked. Fucking Ay.

The bed looked like it'd been slept in....10 minutes before I arrived. There was some greasy stuff on the nightstand (probably KY, who knows), that I had noticed while trying to plug in my phone charger.

I was too tired to leave, and I couldn't fathom going back to my car. Needless to say, I didn't get under the covers or in the sheets. If you were me, you wouldn't have either.

So ya, this is a typical crappy motel.
The only reason I give it 2 stars and not 1 was because we had a huge and (may i add) LOUD Halloween party here, and we didn't get any calls telling us to simmer down.  Well, probably because no one else had a room there, lol.
Actually there was another party going on 2 doors down from us, and  they were louder than us.
I guess it was just party central on Halloween night.
Cool beans, throw parties there guys, they don't even trip :P
but to actually stay there for a few nights....ehhh, I wouldn't if I were you, looked like (if I wasn't drunk) I could find a cockroach carnival under the bed...ew.

this is your typical cheap motel, with a bed, a tv, a side table and chair.  nothing special and nothing weird.

NOTE: 2 stars because its not a 5 star hotel.
