It’s a Motel 6 not the Ritz
Front desk was very helpful. Had an issue with my card and door. Not sure if the batter in the lock was dying but it had some issues turning the deadbolt. There were high amount of cigarette burns in my blankets and sheets. I even got poked by a broken piece of plastic that was in my bed. There were also no wash cloths.
I did have to remind myself that it was a Motel 6 and not the Ritz. I didn’t expect too much coming in. It was a warm 4 walls once the heater kicked in and the bed itself was comfortable.

Poor cleaning service
It appeared the sheets weren't changed. Found several hair strands. The room nor the bathroon had been swept or mopped. Hair and dirt in corners and along the wall.
Bed was fairly comfortable. And the front desk lady was friendly and helpful when we checked in.

Discusting place
This motel is not fit to have an animal stay here. It is filthy, old, smelly, insect laden, loud...I can go on. The place houses people that apparently live there permanently. Not safe. DO NOT STAY THERE!

I think people live here people hanging out outside all night, smoking pot, smoking, cigarettes, people, yelling, and screaming and other rooms up and down the halls. The only thing I could say was the bed was comfortable. We woke up at 3:30 to start getting dressed for our train we had no hot water in our room, the night before my husband went down to get towels because for a double room with four people we only had two towels and one washcloth. They told my husband they had more towels so me and my husband had to share a towel and my friend and her husband had to share a towel , overall experience was horrible. The hallway smelled like cigarette smoke and I know smoking hotel pot smoke just filled the hotel and the entranceway where people were hanging out it made you feel unsafe.

Disgusting
The whole hotel reeked of cigarettes. Inside the room reeked of cigarettes. The comforters were filthy. There were pubes in the bathroom. The whole hotel room was dirty. All the entrance doors were propped open. The place is ghetto and disgusting.

Picked this hotel because of the price and location. Just wanted a place to sleep next to the highway on my way to nyc. Altough I am not picky and can sleep pretty much anywhere, this was terrible. The faucet leaked and we had to put a garbage can underneath, only one light out of three was working, phone was broken, sheets had stains, the hallways smelled bad. Stay elsewhere if you can.
