"The Mexican restaurant in front of the motel 6 was the best part."

3.0

It was a good location for OSU football game.

Motel 6 would not allow me to pay at the property although I chose that option on Booking.com. They also did not honor a military discount. At check-in they changed our room, it was dirty, razor in the shower, trash on the floor. The ac/heat unit was not functioning properly. I've never had an issue before with paying at the property and the front desk staff could not verbalize why my card was charged or why we could not get a military discount. Will not be back here.

This place smells and has mold and bugs. If you must stay here, check ALL of the sheets and bring air freshener. I'm currently fighting them for a refund because they claim they tried everything. It's just a gross motel and the makeshift bulletproof glass in the lobby should tell you all you need to know.

It was the worst and dirtiest experience of my life. I couldn’t sleep until morning, and then I found my arms and legs covered in bed bug bites. The pain, severe itching, swelling, and inflammation in my skin are beyond description . I’ll probably have to go to the emergency room.
