Motel 6 Indianapolis IN

BED BUGS!!! They woke us in the middle of the night crawling on us! We slept the rest of the night in our car and immediately found a different hotel the next day. I will forever be traumatized by that.

This motel, named Shadeland Motel 6, at 3525 Shadeland Avenue, is in a bad section of Indianapolis, Indiana. We established reservations online. The room rent was $80.00. Once we were in route to our event, we attempted to reach someone at the motel front desk to find out our room numbers. This was 10am and no one was answering the phone. We had to go off route to our event to verify our rooms. The rooms weren't ready. They said the phones were out. They said our rooms would be ready when we came back that night. We arrived that night and realized that people were living there year around. That should be a red flag right then, but it was late. We had requested rooms next to each other. the front desk person stated it wouldn't be a problem when we were there earlier in the day. Once we were checked in, we were walking to our rooms and seen the floors were stained. One of the two room key cards didn't work. Had to go back down to the front desk to get another card. The two rooms rented had no form of communication active. The phones weren't connected and didn't even have connecting cords. The tv's wouldn't turn on. The remotes didn't had battery covers. One of two rooms had shaving equipment still on the shower/bathtub rim. The curtains were only 3/4's connected and the rest was hanging loose. The beds are not actual mattresses. They were foam covered box springs. Avoid this place like the plague. This place should be turned into the Health Board and their license pulled.

Look not great place but okay about it

The shower, ironically, had *only* scalding hot water. The "guests" were unruly all night including barking dogs. One room had no fire alarm and the door barely hung on its hinges.

Not in a great area, hotel is dark
