Motel 6 — Hotel in Stillwater

Due to NCAA Baseball Regional, Little League Tournaments, etc being held in town, hotel rooms were scarce and what few there were, were at a premium.||||Due to circumstances that arose, I was shopping for two rooms for our friends and us the night before our trip.||||I reserved two rooms, and was told the rate would be $100 per room, taxes included. This was quite high for this property, but still much cheaper than what few rooms were available at other properties in town. I was advised that the rate would be less the next night, and even lower the night after that. As the events in town lessened, the prices of rooms in area hotels decreased.||||After making the reservations, I began reading reviews. There were a few positive reviews, but there were several negative posts, and I became concerned.||||When we arrived the next afternoon, I expressed my concerns to the owner, and asked him if our rooms would be clean. He assured me that he would take care of everything.||||After going to our rooms, we did find them to be clean, which was one of our main priorities.||||It is an older property, and it is not fancy, but it met our needs for one night.||||As others have described, our room was small. The double beds were placed on opposite walls with maybe 3 or so feet between them. It was fine.||||The AC was not on when we entered, but after a few minutes, it was cooling the room off. The furniture was old, but it was fine. The television hung on the wall, and my wife was able to watch her shows.||||The bathroom was clean. The water pressure in the sink was low, but the water pressure in the shower was good, and there was plenty of hot water.||||The shower door didn’t completely close, and if you weren’t careful, you could end up with quite a bit of water on the floor, but it was manageable. Just redirect the shower head, and mop any water on the floor with a towel. ||||We both got a good night’s sleep. ||||The next morning, I went to the office to get coffee. It wasn’t Starbucks, but we found the coffee to be good. The breakfast offering was waffles, cold cereal, white bread for toasting, and orange juice.||||We didn’t use the pool, but looked fine, and reasonably clean. There was even a lift device to assist those with disabilities.||||The owner was friendly, and accommodating.||||This facility met our needs for the night. I’m glad we...

The October ice storm took out our electricity at our home, so we decided to get a room in Stillwater till they got it back on. This was during the pandemic, and the city requires face masks. They had a sign on the door that face masks were required (which we wore), but the clerk was not wearing one. Check in was pleasant, the clerk was very nice. Got to the room and the key didn't work. Back down to the lobby, clerk very helpful and got us into the room. The view from our room was the pool....it was green...yuk. The room was very run-down although moderately clean except for the badly stained shower floor. There was no phone, no clock, no coffee maker, no bedside lamps for reading, or facial tissue in the bathroom. The towels had seen better days and some were so heavily stained they looked like they had been used to wash a car. As promised, there was a refrigerator (working fine) and microwave (no outlet to plug it in). We moved the microwave to the floor next to the door where there was an outlet. Had to tape the cord to the outlet to get it to stay in, but at least it worked. Lots of noise at night. I would not be shocked to hear that there was drug/prostitution activity there, as much of the clientele looked pretty shady, and the noise at night was lots of fighting and cursing. There was free wi-fi, as advertised, but the signal was very weak resulting in deja vu to the old modem days. There was supposed to be free breakfast, coffee and tea in the lobby, but due to the pandemic that was not available. I intended to take pictures, but we got word that the electricity had been restored at our house and we couldn't get out of there fast enough. I do not recommend this...
