This place smells of stinky disifenctant spray. The covers on the bed smell like the inside of a bowling shoe. The carpet had a big sticky stain and there was a big crusty looking 'something' on the bathroom floor. There was a half used roll of toilet paper sitting on top of the empty roll holder. The guy at the... More

Staying at this location for my brother's RTC Graduation at Great lakes. The motel is only 10 mins away from the base. Staff is great! Very polite and helpful! Rooms are dated and could use things like flat screen TVs, hair dryers, irons, etc. but room is very spacious and clean! Beds are very comfortable! In short, for $50 bucks... More

There was hair in the beds, hair in the tubs, hair in the folds of the towels. Our stepdaughter and her mom had crusty stains and... More

The room came with a king size bed and fridge/microwave, everything we could need. We used our naval graduation to get a fantastic rate and the... More

Motel 6 has a reputation for clean, comfortable rooms that are budget friendly; I should know, I work in one! But staying in this motel was hands down the worst motel experience of my life! My family and I were looking for a well-priced room in close vicinity to the NAVY base, for graduation, and we chose this motel because... More

Stopped in for a night on my way to see a friend in Green Bay. The price was right so I thought I would give it a try. Bad mistake. First let me say the rooms were far from great but not awful. My problems started up in room 237 around 2;30 am when I got up to go to... More
