Motel 6 Richmond KY good contrast to expense Lex
Property was clean. Staff friendly and efficient. Eco-friendly in that only soap offered so no waste of other hygiene amenities. Close to interstate but did not notice noise. Appreciated the ice machine. One drawback was curtain had some attachment issues and to cover the window completely had to tie to door. Missed having coffee available in the am if only in office but realize some special features cannot be offered at a low price point.

Motel 666
very nice newly renovated rooms also clean. Not very handicap accesible ,I am disabled, the elevator is out of service. also looks dangerous for children on the second and third floor. i would hate to think of my little daughter falling down a elevator shaft. i came back from chemotheropy, lung cancer, one afternnoon to find my child traumatized and my wife hysterical we had apparently been kicked out of our room due to the racist owner claiming to have found an ash in the floor. i told the irrational, confrontational and rude man that he was mistaken. he did not care. This was the most horrible experience ive ever had traveling.They also stole from us. i had already paid for the night and we havent gotten our refund or deposit back yet. i had to skip my chemotherapy to afford shelter for my family that i had already paid for ! More of a Motel 666 than a Motel 6 !

The floor was filthy. You could see outside on the bottom of the door. The hot water only got lukewarm.

Wonderful stay
I really like it there. They took such good care of me during my stay. I work nights so they let me do an early check in and late check out. They made sure to put me in a room far away from any kind of noise. I’ve stayed her numerous of times and each stay was great. I’ll keep coming back until my contract with work is over.

We were told to run hot water for 20 minutes to get the hot water but never actually got anything more than like warm water. Additionally, the plank floors were dirty.

Would stay again!
It has been recently remodeled so very up-to-date. Everything was very clean except the floor (which was new too). We had black feet after walking on it.... But that's a easy fix. There also was still a left over smoke smell (not terrible).The beds were new and comfortable! Everything was in working order! It also had great water pressure. Overall for a motel very nice.

We got to the property late and the guy that checked us in wasn’t the friendliest. We got into our room and it was “ upgraded” but there was hair in the bed, pee in the toilet , shower leaked , no shampoo/conditioner, an open bar of soap. We slept for a few hours and left. When checking out the receptionist was super friendly. Honestly, it was cheap so you get what you paid for.

Me and my family have stayed here a few times and each time has been such a great experience. The friendlessness of the married couple that manage this hotel make you feel so warm and welcomed from the point of check-in until the moment you checkout. They've done an amazing job of renovating this hotel. I look forward to our next stay.

Super friendly staff... but way too many bugs in room. Cockroaches on bed. Weird little gnats all over bathroom. Water took about 20 minutes to go from cold to luke warm in shower, on full heat setting.

The pictures on your website of this hotel we're not accurate. This hotel was being fully renovated on both the outside and especially the inside. That is a good idea, but that is also something that should be disclosed on the description of the hotel before people like myself book. On two occasions in the first 3 hours, I had a cable technician come into my room, once without even knocking complete some wiring. The parking lot was filled with construction equipment, and there was no breakfast whatsoever. The cable TV channels were extremely Limited compared to other hotels as well
