"The room was dirty. There was sand all over the floor. The shower was broken and it took management sending someone to the room twice to get it fixed. The TV was on the wrong table and we just about fell over the cable that was stretched across the room just inside the door. I would not recommend that anyone stay at this Motel 6 ."
