No workers and no sleep the entire night!!!
I was scared to stay because they had a security guard stationed outside staring at me. I was not able to sleep because of the noise. From 12am-5am, a women and man were playing loud music, screaming, slamming, banging the walls, stomping or throwing furniture, and trying to wake everyone up. I called the office over 30 (yes, thats right 30!) times and no one answered from a "24/7" front desk. I went down to the office and no one was there. I called again to no answer. I tried to find the security guard and there was no one at his post. I went down to the office AGAIN and still no one.The women was screaming "Hey everyone, wake up!" I then called and spoke to a man who asked me who it was as if I knew the names of the guests staying there. He said he would try to call them. They kept this up until about 5 am. I had probably a total hour of sleep after that. Worst night sleep of my life.

Convenient Location
The location is convenient. The room we got was bigger than the typical room for Motel 6 and liked it but the floors need to be cleaned more. Also when we checked out really early morning there was somebody outside “waiting” and it looked sketchy so we managed to just leave and didnt bother to go to the front desk.
