A cash deposit tells you much of what you need to know. It's a little run down. Bed clean, AC & fridge worked, kinda musty, and a patched hole in the bathroom door. You're right on the edge of the good section of town. 5Min walk though, and Waffle House across the street. Loud people doing loud people stuff at all hours. I listened to some wild argument at 6am one morning and someone beating a dog half to death at 4am. Oh and the pool doesnt exist. It's long since been filled. If you're looking for luxury, you're in the wrong spot

I WISH I COULD GIVE NEGATIVE STARS! Absolutely horrible experience at Motel 6. One of the reasons I chose this hotel was because they proudly advertise "Pets Stay Free." However, upon arrival, I was charged a $150 deposit because I had my documented SERVICE ANIMAL with me. To make matters worse, the room itself was disgusting. There were dead roaches throughout the room, which should have been a clear sign of the poor condition and lack of cleanliness at this property. It was unacceptable and unsanitary. I wasn't expecting much as it is a budget hotel but we literally needed 6 hours to crash and get back on the road. After checking out, I was informed that they would return my deposit to my card in 4-5 days. Here we are 10 days later and they are now saying they would not be returning my $150 deposit because they claimed someone smoked in the room. The problem is that neither I nor anyone staying with me smokes. When I called the front desk to dispute the charge, I was told they had pictures proving smoking occurred. As soon as I asked to see the pictures, the employee hung up on me. Since then, they have refused to answer my calls or provide any evidence whatsoever to support their accusation. The lack of professionalism is unbelievable. If they truly had evidence, why refuse to provide it? Instead, they simply kept my money and stopped communicating. I also contacted corporate, hoping they would investigate the situation and help resolve the issue. Unfortunately, corporate was no help at all and seemed completely uninterested in addressing my concerns. What makes this even more concerning is that Motel 6 advertises that pets stay free, yet I was charged a substantial deposit because of my service animal. Combined with the refusal to return my money, the unsanitary conditions, and the complete lack of transparency, this raises serious concerns about how guests are being treated. Between the dead roaches, the questionable deposit practices, being accused of smoking without evidence, having the phone hung up on me when I asked for proof, and corporate's refusal to help, this was one of the worst hotel experiences I have ever had. I will be filing complaints with the appropriate agencies and exploring all available legal options regarding the improper withholding of my deposit. THIS IS ILLEGAL! Save yourself the headache and stay somewhere else.

This Motel 6 is hands down the nicest one I've ever stayed at. The kitchenettes actually work, with tile floors, kick plates on the bathroom walls, granite counters, reliable electric burners, and full cabinets top to bottom. It's perfect for my girlfriend and me after moving from Colorado. I see a lot of negative reviews online, but they seem to keep the riff-raff out here with signs everywhere warning you'll be tossed for any suspect behavior. People gripe about the refundable pet deposit and $50 room deposit, but if you've seen how nice these rooms are, you'd get it—it's how they keep bums away and attract classier guests.

The beds were hard. The room needed updating. The toilet handle was broken. The first night we didn't have any hot water.

Apparently because we missed a visit from room service we have to wait an entire week to get our linens replaced. The front desk lady is unreasonable and has a bad habit of making it her business to punish the people staying in her location. It's franchised owned so they do whatever they want without fear of being reported to corporate. No stars.

Great central location for touring Historic Columbus. Surrounded by restaurants and shopping and right on the main thoroughfare, only blocks from the Historic district and riverfront.

very disappointed! was unable to access our original room and then was ‘banned’ for smoking despite booking a “smoking room”.. wasted $75 for a bed with bedbugs!! Also forbidden areas NEED TO BE POSTED ON SIGNAGE!

A place to sleep. I ended up in a very large (smoking) suite, which is probably my fault. When I explained the miscommunication, I was told nothing could be done. Perfect location. Just minutes from downtown Columbus.
