Motel 6 Shreveport

The front desk woman was nice, and from outside the place looked promising. Inside, we couldn’t use the side doors and had to walk down the hall. The parking lot had no cars, but we could hear people in their rooms, so it seemed like they lived there. Our room wasn’t clean: the microwave smelled so bad I gagged when I opened it, the refrigerator was covered in who knows what, and I’m not sure anyone vacuums the hallways. There was a TV but no remote. We needed somewhere inexpensive that allowed dogs, and I guess this is what you get.

We checked in at 2 a.m. and left without checking out because the place was so bad. The bedding was dirty, with hair between the sheets and comforter. The microwave started making a crazy noise and seemed close to blowing up, so we unplugged it. People were walking around and making noise all night, really into the morning. We ran out of there and won’t be back to this Motel 6.

The woman working the night we arrived was super friendly, but the room and the rest of the staff were garbage. The shower handle was broken, there was no hot water, and the tub had several burn marks along its side. Black mold covered the bathroom ceiling and the area outside it. The refrigerator and microwave were repulsive, and the blankets, sheets, and mattress all had burn holes. I thought I’d booked non-smoking, but it wasn’t, and the room was much worse than just smelling of cigarettes. It was the worst place I’ve ever been to, and nowhere near worth the $70 I paid. I wish I could give zero stars. I had a video, but the site wouldn’t let me add it, so the pictures have to speak for themselves.

The room was dirty, and the cigarette and weed smell was strong. There was paint on the floor, too. I couldn’t easily tell who worked there because the employees behind the counter weren’t dressed professionally or wearing name tags. They were hard to distinguish from guests.
