Nice Hotel
Reviewed By bobkR1182EQNice hotel. Reasonable rate. Friendly check-in person. Good location. Near several restaurants. The staff at this hotel is amazing. They went above and beyond to accommodate our group. I recently stayed at a 4 star hotel that did not have near the quality of service that this hotel does.

terrible experience
Reviewed By M2052IQdianesThe room was nice. We didn't have any soap so we called -0- to ask for soap for the soap dispenser, he said they would bring us some. An half hour later he still hadn't brought us any. There were only 2 other cars there so I walked over to the office. He said I should call 911 for emergency after this if I needed anything. I asked if he meant the police, and he told me to call 911 if I needed anything after this again. This was only a little after 9 p.m. My friend that I was there with for an art show had made the mistake of paying him in cash. He proceeded to decided to tell us just to leave if we were unhappy and that he would just refund our money. She went over to get her money back and then he decided to not return her money and told us to get out and became very foul mouthed. I believe this was his intent all of the time. We told him we weren't going to leave if he didn't give us our money back and he became even more nasty. We called the police, but we became very frightened of him. He had also been drinking. He was also listening in at one of the other doors that was rented out. He continued to hollered at us as we left.

Room from Hell
Reviewed By jshotwell4I checked in July 12 Monday night Thru July 20th. Paid $538.00 to make my own bed, take out my garbage, go get more towels when needed. And to look at ants n roaches running around so I brought some Raid. The other problems The SINK was stopped up so either washing hands or brushing my teeth I had to look at water in the facebowl. The general manager is only available @ certain times. When I did talk to the manager he had such a nasty disposition, Didn’t want to do anything to makeup for a BAD STAY. He was trying to give 38.00 dollars back then gave me 50.00. After I contacted Hotel.com they sent a Full Refund email to Motel6 North when I called mr.sheth told me to go get lost because I gave 50.00 back. I should’ve camped out in my car.

Reviewed By TinyToes123We were looking for a cheap place to stay before heading home after the Metallica concert, which was awesome. It was cheap ($80), however, it probably should have been closer to "dirt" cheap. There was a strange smell in the room, the air conditioner worked for 2min and then a concerning noise followed. We attempted to plug in our cell phones and the outlet literally fell out of the wall. The bathroom had dead bugs in corners and we were unsure if we should have slept in the beds. Around 4am we were happily awaken by a couple yelling racial slurs at each other, slamming doors and at one point we thought they were attempting to get into our vehicle. The check-in attendant's English was broken, but we picked up on key words; definitely not locally owned. As we drove away (thankfully), our conversation was about safety inspections being conducted...ever?
