In fairness, I was not expecting more than a 3 star room by any means.
The saving grace to this hole is that the room was actually clean. Had I been staying by myself, most of this would simply be an afterthought,
I honestly would not care that the room components were falling apart (the towel holder, the shower curtain hanging by a thread almost literally and the door with a 1/4 inch gap open to the elements.) as long as the room is clean and I can get some sleep, that’s pretty much all I care about.
This is where things went sideways. I can tolerate moderate noise. But constant traffic after midnight, setting my dog off every 10 minutes because someone is standing outside my door. We got roughly 1 combined hour of sleep throughout the night.
I don’t know what happened to Motel 6, but it seems that they have turned into half apartment and half motel.
This is another issue by the way. If you are listening it should be disclosed on the booking sites if the property has permanent “residents” on site.
