Review of Motel 6-Mount Pleasant, TX 2*

The sign advertises, "New Rooms, Low Rate, $45.99" and the property looked nice, so we stopped. The agent at the desk said that for two people plus tax the rate was $65.00 and a military discount earned us a $2.00 discount. No mention was made of the 10% senior discount, even though hubby is 63 years old. When asked, the agent referred him to Anytime Fitness, open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, where he could exercise for free since staying at Motel 6. When asked where Anytime Fitness was located, the desk agent looked it up on the Internet, and gave him an address. HeI spent lots of time searching for it and finally asked some locals where it was but no one had heard of it. Meanwhile, I washed my hair and noticed there is not hair dryer, so asked him to go to the front desk and get one. No one even knew what a hair dryer was and stated they did not have any, so he had to drive all around to find a Walgreens that sold hair dryers! He spent $20 on something that most hotels have mounted on the wall. As we watched the news upon our arrival at the hotel, we heard a crash in the bathroom, as the towel rack above the toilet fell out of the wall! Perhaps if the owners of the hotel hired Americans who can speak English and know the hotel business they would have more people use the facility. Only one employee spoke English, and he gave very poor advice and service. Although the hotel is pretty clean it is located next to a very busy intersection with loud trucks driving past at all hours. I felt very frustrated by my stay here.
