No towels or toiletries in room

No towels or toiletries in room. Office called us about our dogs barking but did nothing over other dogs barking in the rooms next to ours. Never received security deposit back.

Pricey for what you get

I'm normally not overly critical of Motel 6 establishments due to their simplicity and low cost. But in this case, the cost did not justify the simplicity. The price was high and rooms were very, very small. But in their defense, all the hotels in the Richmond, VA area were about that price ... but for a little bit more in price, I could have gotten a lot more hotel. I'll probably look elsewhere on my next trips to Richmond, VA.

Friendly employees

Everyone at the front desk has always been friendly when I've checked in. The rooms haven't always been the cleanest and sometimes things didn't work (the bathroom light/fan) or were missing (shower curtain). Sometimes customer service is lacking when there's a problem.

Double check your booking.

Having stayed here multiple times over the last ten years on trips to and from NY state, its easy access from interstate, having a clean, comfortable room with wi-fi access, and a Golden Corral nearby makes this a reasonable choice.
But I mistakenly booked myself twice, and was charged as such. As a single senior, almost 80, this both disappoints and frustrates and frustrates me . Not very good for you reputation.

The San Luis motel 6 staff and facility was outstanding , that being said the Morro Bay motel 6 was a true nightmare , staff , room , facilities were horrible , we could not lock windows, tub and shower had no safety pad ,I fell forward in the shower and caught myself before I hit the wall. Furthermore we advised the staff of all this and they banned us from any future stays ,it was absolutely ridiculous, we need you to reconcile this within your Motel 6 family I would gladly encourage you to contact me regarding this report!

Management lies

The Gmail is a liar and has no balls. He would say one thing to my fa e then turn around the complete opposite. We had been waiting for our apt to finish the renovations so we could move. We had been there a while and I left my wallet at work and need extra time to pay the room. He told me i was would be able good to go get it and pay late. While I was getting my wallet he kicked my kid out in the heat with all of our stuff then called the cops on her. She almost got arrested. I will NEVER use motel 6 again. Their management is trash
